Pressure Drop given Setting Length Formula Elements

Variables
Prestress Drop
Prestress Drop is the drop in applied prestress force due to strain in tendons.
Symbol: Δfp
Measurement: PressureUnit: MPa
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Prestressing force after Immediate Losses
Prestressing force after Immediate Losses is force after immediate losses. It is also called as reduced value of prestressing force after elastic shortening, anchorage slip and loss due to friction.
Symbol: P
Measurement: ForceUnit: kN
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Simplified Term
Simplified Term here represents the value which is equal to (μa+kx)/x.
Symbol: η
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Settling Length
Settling Length is the length where the effect of anchorage friction is absent.
Symbol: lset
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
