Initial Prestress given Prestress after Immediate Loss Formula Elements

Variables
Initial Prestress Force
Initial Prestress Force is the force which is applied to the tendons by the jack.
Symbol: Pi
Measurement: ForceUnit: kN
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Prestressing Force after Loss
Prestressing Force after Loss is the prestressing force after immediate losses. It is the reduced value of prestressing force after elastic shortening, anchorage slip and loss due to friction.
Symbol: Po
Measurement: ForceUnit: kN
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Transformed Section Area of Prestress
Transformed Section Area of Prestress is the area of the member when steel is substituted by an equivalent area of concrete.
Symbol: APretension
Measurement: AreaUnit: mm²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Pre-Tensioned Area of Concrete
Pre-Tensioned Area of Concrete is a construction method where steel tendons are stressed before pouring concrete, enhancing structural strength.
Symbol: APre tension
Measurement: AreaUnit: mm²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
