Abstract

This PCI Committee report summarizes data on creep and shrinkage of concrete and steel relaxation, and presents both a general and a simplified design procedure for using these data in estimating loss of prestress after any given time period. A Commentary explains the design provisions. Detailed design examples for pretensioned and post-tensioned concrete structures explain the procedures.
