panel slabs (height of panel slabs hKL=120mm) and cast in place slab (total slab thickness
hKL+hCIP=hTOT=220mm). Beams are supported by columns. Connection between beam and columns may be
assumed to be hinged. Composite action between the slab and beam shall be ignored.

a) Calculate the immediate losses due to friction ΔPμ, anchorage set ΔPsl and instantaneous deformation of concrete ΔPel.
(Tip: in this case the anchorage set will extend over the beam length).
Immediate prestress losses due to friction can be calculated with the following information
* Losses due to friction in post-tensioned tendons [EC2 Eq.(5.45)]: ΔPμ(x)=PMAX(1-e-μ(θ+kx)
)
* θ is the sum of the angular displacements over a distance x
* Coefficient of friction between the tendon and its duct μ=0,06 (for unbonded tendons)
* Unintentional angular displacement for internal tendons k=0,01/m (for unbonded tendons)
b) Draw a curve that describes the tendon force after initial losses from jacking end (x=0) to the dead anchorage end
(x=L). What is the average tendon force after initial losses Pm.0?
c) Check is the allowable stress in the tendon immediately after tensioning exceeded. If not, how much the jacking force
could be increased?
d) Calculate the long-term losse. What is the average tendon force after all losses Pm.t? How much of the initial jacking
force is lost? Creep factor of concrete is φ=2 and total shrinkage in concrete is εcs=0,030%.
Time dependent losses for unbonded tendons may be evaluated with simplified EC2 equation:
Δσp,c+s+r=EP/ECM*φ*σc,QP + εcs*Ep + 0,8*Δσpr
Δσp,s+s+r = Loss in tendons due to relaxation of tendons, shrinkage and creep of concrete
σc,QP = Average compressive stress in concrete due to precompression after immediate losses = Pm.0/Ac
Δσpr = Loss due to relaxation in tendons
Loss due to relaxation for unbonded tendons may be evaluated with simplified equation [BY69 / NCCI2 3.3.2(5)]:
Δσpr=3*ρ1000*σp.m.0
Δσpr = Loss due to relaxation in tendons
σp.m.0 = average stress in tendons after immediate losses = Pm.0/Ap
e) Calculate the elongation of the tendons at the active end after stressing.
