Tendon Losses Evaluation
Both instant and long term losses are calculated by PT3D. They comprise of the following components:
Instant Losses
Long Term Losses
Losses charts, tendon uplift calculations and a report are generated after the evaluation. Users can then examine some parametric results such as P/A, transfer stresses and service stresses.
PT3D is a programme for the analysis and design of post-tensioned concrete slabs. Slabs of any shape and orientation can be modelled including suspended slabs and slab-on-ground. Tendons are easily defined and edited and can be modelled in any direction. Two-way tendon action is automatically considered. Using advanced finite element analysis PT3D gives extremely accurate results required for efficient design.
