OBJECTIVES:

 Principle of prestressing, analysis and design of prestressed concrete structures.

UNIT I PRINCIPLES OF PRESTRESSING 9 

Principles of Prestressing - types and systems of prestressing, need for High Strength materials, Analysis methods losses, deflection (short-long term), camber, cable layouts. 

UNIT II DESIGN OF FLEXURAL MEMBERS 9
