Calculation Of Elongation
Besides the prestressing data, they contain sequence of stressing and directions for procedures directly
connected with stressing operation, such as lowering of the formwork and releasing of bearings.
The total elongation DItot which the tendon has to achieve during stressing should be calculated as:

Px,0 = P0 · e-µ·gX
P0 = prestressing force at the stressing end [kN] Po
gx = ∑ angle of deflection between the stressing end and at any point distance x [rad]
