Homework 1, Free body diagrams of post-tensioned structures 1(7)
Return to MyCourses in PDF-format.
Beams in pictures (a…h) are stressed with post-tensioned tendons. Profile of the tendon is shown in the
pictures. Tendon is stressed at the stressing end with force “P”. Curved parts of the tendon profile are
parabolas, which can be assumed to produce an evenly distributed vertical load over the length of each
parabola. Any losses in tendon force can be neglected due to simplification.
Goal of the assignment is to draw and sketch the forces transmitted from the tendon to the concrete as a free
body diagram of the concrete structure (=free-body diagram of the concrete structure after removal of
tendon).
- Load balancing force due to tendon profile
- Point moments due to eccentricity of the anchor at the anchor areas and change of cross section
