The document provides a 10-step process for designing post-tensioned concrete floors. It begins with preliminary considerations such as determining the structural system, dimensions, and design parameters. It then discusses analyzing the structure to determine actions from dead and live loads. Next it covers selecting post-tensioning forces and profiles, calculating balanced loads, and determining resulting actions. The steps also include code checks for serviceability and strength, checking transfer of prestressing, and detailing requirements.

Post-tensioning is simply a method of producing prestressed concrete, masonry, and other structural elements. Post-tensioning is a form of prestressing. Prestressing simply means that the steel is stressed (pulled or tensioned) before the concrete has to support the service loads. Most precast, prestressed concrete is actually pre-tensioned-the steel is pulled before the concrete is poured. Post-tensioned concrete means that the concrete is poured and then the tension is applied-but it is still stressed before the loads are applied so it is still prestressed.

Pre-stressed concrete is a method for overcoming concrete's natural weakness in tension. It can be used to produce beams, floors or bridges with a longer span than is practical with ordinary reinforced concrete. Pre-stressing tendons (generally of high tensile steel cable or rods) are used to provide a clamping load which produces a compressive stress that balances the tensile stress that the concrete compression member would otherwise experience due to a bending load. The pre-stressing force offsets the tensile stress and eliminates the tensile strain allowing the beam to resist further higher loading or to span longer distance.

ANALYSIS & DESIGN ASPECTS OF PRE-STRESSED MEMBERS USING F.R.P. TENDONSGirish Singh
The purpose of this investigation is mainly a brief explanation about the advantages of FRP over steel. The various uses and advantages of FRP are explained in this project. In this project, we have taken a section of 3m length, 200mm width and 300mm depth and using a parabolic tendon of eccentricity 100mm at the centre. We have design the section for FRP as well as steel with the above data. The final stresses obtained is being verified with the help of Ansys software. We have shown the result of steel straight tendon only in this mini project.
Bracing elements in structural system plays a vital role in the seismic behaviour of high rise buildings during earthquake. Many of the structural failures in buildings during strong earthquake shaking have indicated that sustainable strength and stable energy dissipation capability are most desirable to maintain inter story drifts and overall structural displacements within tolerable levels. So earthquake action brings a greater concern in the structural design of buildings which is situated in earthquake prone areas. Steel bracing are the common type which mainly used to resist the lateral loads acting during a seismic activity. Conventional types of lateral load resisting systems are concentrically-braced frames (CBFs) and eccentrically braced frames (EBF). Buckling Restrained Braces (BRB) are recent developed structural system which has a stable energy dissipation property. Main advantage of BRB is its ability to yield both in tension and compression without buckling, thus obtaining a stable hysteresis loop. The BRB brace placed in a concentric frame is termed as BRBF system.

A quick introduction to Nemetschek Scia, our customers and the constructions they develop using our Structural Analysis and Design Software for Construction and Engineering.
The use of post-tensioning system in building offers numerous advantages such as economic savings, minimised floor-to-floor heights, increased column-free space, minimised foundations, in seismic areas, reduced weight and lateral load resisting systems, simplified slab design and construction etc.
The importance of software since there is were the motivation for software engineering lies and then and introduction to software engineering mentioning the concept and stages of development and working in teams
Stiffened Panels structures are widely used because they make the structure more cost-effective by offering a desirable strength/weight ratio, and is in so far that even small weight reduction of each of them can significantly affect the total empty weight of the structure. The reduction in the structural weight of ships gives valuable advantages such as; increasing their cargo-carrying efficiency, decrease in material cost supersedes the higher production costs, also lighter vessels requires engines with lower power, which means less emission of hazardous gases produced by marine diesel engines.
In this research a barge’s deck is evaluated by means of finite element analysis and optimized by parametric sensitivity analysis and numerical optimization methods, and the results would show that the deck structure could be developed further by utilizing the optimization techniques to reduce their weight by up to 9%.

seismic response of multi storey building equipped with steel bracingINFOGAIN PUBLICATION
Steel bracing has proven to be one of the most effective systems in resisting lateral loads. Although its use to upgrade the lateral load capacity of existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) frames has been the subject of numerous studies, guidelines for its use in newly constructed RC frames still need to be developed. In this paper the study reveals that seismic performance of moment resisting RC frames with different patterns of bracing system. The three different types of bracings were used i.e. X - bracing system, V - bracing system and Inverted V - bracing system. This arrangement helped in reducing the structural response (i.e. displacement, interstorey drift, Shear Forces & Bending Moments) of the designed building structure. An (G+6) storey building was modelled and designed as per the code provisions of IS-1893:2002. And linear analysis is been carried out in the global X direction. The analysis was conducted with a view of accessing the seismic elastic performance of the building structure.
Design analysis of the roll cage for all terrain vehicleeSAT Journals
Abstract We have tried to design an all terrain vehicle that meets international standards and is also cost effective at the same time. We have focused on every point of roll cage to improve the performance of vehicle without failure of roll cage. We began the task of designing by conducting extensive research of ATV roll cage through finite element analysis. A roll cage is a skeleton of an ATV. The roll cage not only forms the structural base but also a 3-D shell surrounding the occupant which protects the occupant in case of impact and roll over incidents. The roll cage also adds to the aesthetics of a vehicle. The design and development comprises of material selection, chassis and frame design, cross section determination, determining strength requirements of roll cage, stress analysis and simulations to test the ATV against failure. Keywords: Roll cage, material, finite element analysis, strength

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Code Check for Serviceability
Using engineering judgment, select the locations that
are likely to be critical. Typically, these are at the face
of support and for hand calculation at mid-span
At each section selected for check, use the design actions
applicable to the entire design section and apply those to
the entire cross-section of the design section to arrive at
the hypothetical stresses used in code check.

ACI 318-14 Minimum Reinforcement
Rebar over support is function of geometry of the
design strip and the strip in the orthogonal
direction
Rebar in span is a function of the magnitude of
the hypothetical tensile stress
STEP 6
Post-Tensioning
As = 0.00075*Acf
As = Area of steel required
Acf = Larger of cross-sectional area of the strip
in direction of analysis and orthogonal to it.
ACI 318-14 Minimum Reinforcement
Rebar over support is function of geometry of the
design strip and the strip in the orthogonal
direction
Rebar in span is a function of the magnitude of
the hypothetical tensile stress
In span, provide rebar if the hypothetical tensile
stress exceeds 0.16√f’c
The amount of reinforcement As is given by:
As = N / (0.5fy)
where N is the tensile force in tension zone

13. Read deflections from the frame analysis of the
design strip for dead, live and PT; (ΔDL , ΔLL , and ΔPT ).
. Make the following load combinations and
check against the allowable values for each case
Total Deflection
(1 + 2)(ΔDL + ΔPT + 0.3 ΔLL ) + 0.7 ΔLL < span/240
This is on the premise of sustained load being 0.3
time the design live load. It is for visual effects;
Provide camber to reduce value, where needed and
practical
Immediate deflection from live load
Δimmediate = 1.00ΔL < span/480
This check is applicable, where non-structural
members are likely to be damaged. Otherwise,
span/240 applies
Presence of members likely to be damaged from
sustained deflection
(1+ 2)(0.3 ΔLL ) + 0.7 ΔLL < span/360

Strength Check
A comment on capacity versus demand
Post-tensioned members possess both a positive
and negative moment capacity along the member
length
Rebar needs to be added, where capacity falls short
of demand
First, find the capacity and compare it with demand
STEP 8
Strength Check
14. The figure below shows the forces on a PT member.
In calculating the force from PT tendons, use either
the ACI 318 or the following simplified procedure,
based on parametric study of common building
structures can be used for slabs
STEP 8
Strength Check
f’c ≥ 28 MPa; P/A ≤ 1.7 MPa
c/dt ≤ 0.375 ; dt is distance from compression
fiber to farthest tension rebar
Tendon Length ≤ 38 m for single end stressing;
if length ≤ 76 m double end stressing
fps is conservatively 1480 MPa if span is less than 10 m
fps is conservatively 1340 MPa if span is greater
than 10 m
Check for adequate ductility
Ductility is deemed adequate, if c/dt <= 0.345 dt
This condition guarantees that steel will yield,
before concrete in compression crushes.
STEP 8
Strength Check
Verify adequacy (detail) of the design for
transfer of unbalanced moment at supports
Unbalanced moment (Mc)is defined as the
difference between the design moments on the
opposite sides of a column support. This is the
moment that is resisted by the support.
The reinforcement associated with the transfer of
unbalanced moment must be placed over a
narrow band at the support (next slide)
In most cases, this provision leads to a “detailing”
requirement, as opposed to added rebar, since
the reinforcement for slab design is in excess of
that needed for transfer of unbalanced moment.

STEP 9
Check for Transfer of Prestressing
At stressing:
Tendon has its maximum force;
Concrete is at its weakest strength; and
Live load to counteract prestressing is absent
Hence the member is likely to experience stresses
more severe than when in service
STEP 9
Check for Transfer of Prestressing
At stressing check extreme fiber
stresses
Add rebar when “representative”
(hypothetical) tension stresses exceed
a threshold
Do not exceed “representative”
hypothetical compressive stresses. Wait
until concrete gains adequate strength
