When the concrete has been hardened, the prestressed tendons are passed through ducts cast into the concrete and locked with mechanical anchors. • Strain in concrete at the level of tendon is calculated from the stress in concrete (fc) at the same level due to prestressing force. Use of high strength concrete and freedom from cracks, contribute to improve durability under aggressive environmental conditions. at that section, ie., F and e, regardless of how the tendon profile varies
