Design of Prestressed Concrete Structures

Presents basic theory of prestressed concrete along with the load balancing, working–load and ultimate–load methods for prestressed concrete design. Material revised in light of substantial advances in the field includes: materials, prestressing systems, loss of prestress, shear and bond, camber and deflection. Design examples based on the 1977 ACI Code with its latest revisions. Appendix contains selected problems.
