Frictional Loss of Prestress Caused by Deflected Tendon
Bending of a prestressing tendon by construction error or the radius of curvature at the continuous joint of PSC girders cannot be avoided. However, this kind of prestress loss is not considered in design and construction processes. This study proves that prestress loss occurs at the continuous joint due to local bending of the tendon which is induced by construction error or the radius of curvature. The result shows that a maximum 3 % of prestress loss occurs at the continuous joint for a single tendon.
