Concrete and Ans: Reasons for Using High Strength High Tensile Steel in Prestressed Concrete os) and Instead of using ordinary concrete ( 20 and M2M) ete mild steel, in pre-stressed concrete. high sirength cone and high-tensile steel are used. In pre-stressed — high strength concrete and high-strength steel 27e used to improve the load bearing capacity ‘and crack control. te clastic strain, shrinkage and plastic flow are much small. These qualities lower the loss of pre-stress_ considerably. There is concentration of stresses under the end anchorages of pre-stressing wires. To reduce the size of anchorages, high-quality concrete is required, which can bear these heavy stresses.
