Settling Length given Prestressing Force Immediately after Loss evaluator uses Settling Length = sqrt(Slip of Anchorage*Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement/(Prestressing force after Immediate Losses*Simplified Term)) to evaluate the Settling Length, The Settling Length given Prestressing Force Immediately after Loss is defined as the length of beam where effect of anchorage slip does not exist. It depends on friction and wobble effect of tendons. Settling Length is denoted by lset symbol.
How to evaluate Settling Length given Prestressing Force Immediately after Loss using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Settling Length given Prestressing Force Immediately after Loss, enter Slip of Anchorage (Δ), Steel Area in Prestress (Ap), Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement (Es), Prestressing force after Immediate Losses (P) & Simplified Term (η) and hit the calculate button.
