Abstract

  • This paper discusses the determination of prestressing force in statically

    indeterminate structures, where the prestressing force produces a secondary moment

    in addition to the primary moment. This condition is different from statically

    determinate ones as there is no secondary moment. In this paper the moment due to

    prestressing force is assumed to be a direct function of the prestressing force

    multiplied by a coefficient-² thus the prestressing force is obtained from the stress

    conditions of the bottom and top fibres under external loading. To show the

    application of the proposed procedure, a three-storey building is taken as an

    example.
