Prestress Loss Distributions along Simply Supported Pretensioned Concrete Beams

The prestressing forces in prestressed tendons undergo a process of reduction over a period of time. A common assumption is that prestress loss is constantly distributed throughout the span of a simply supported pretensioned concrete beam. The purpose of this work is to investigate the accuracy of...
