4.2 CHECKING OF STRESESS

4.2.1 Total Losses

- Jacking Force = 1395*140*51/ (1000) ^2


= 9.96 MN
Where,
Area of Strands = 140 mm2
Number of Strands = 51

After all losses effective Pre-Stressing force at Long Term = 7.266 MN

Therefore, Total Losses = (1 – (7.245/9.96)) *100 = 27.05%

4.2.2 Regularization Length


The regularization length defines the distance necessary from strand ends to develop linear normal stresses
diagram throughout the section of the beam.

lr
lr : regularisation length
As per BPEL, Appendix 4, Section 3.1, the regularization length lr is given by :

lr = √ [ (0.8*lsn)² + dpi² ]

Where : lsn = µ/0.85*les = (fjacking/fpu) /0.85*(75*Østrand) = 1006mm = 1m


dpi = 2.2 - 0.303 = 1.897m (distance from strands CG to extreme top fiber)

So lr = √ [ (0.8*1)² + 1.897² ] = 2.06m

Therefore, stress calculation shall be made only beyond 2.0 m from T-Girder end.
