3 Types of Prestressed Concrete and its Best Application
Prestressed Concrete Here it is discussed about the types of prestressed concrete, tendons in prestressed concrete and application of prestressed concrete. Prestressed concrete is fundamentally concrete in which interior stresses of a reasonable magnitude and distribution are presented with the goal that the stresses coming about because of the outside loads are neutralized to an ideal degree. In reinforced concrete individuals, the prestress is for the most part introduced by tensioning the steel support. The most punctual instances of wooden barrel construction forcibly fitting of metal groups and shrink fitting of metal tires on wood wheels demonstrate that the craft of prestressing strand unbonded has been practiced from ancient times. The tensile strength of plain concrete is just a small portion of its compressive strength and its issue being lacking in tensile strength seems to have been the driving element in the improvement of the co...
