Definition of Prestressing
It consists of preloading the structure before application of design loads in such a way so as to improve its general performance.

Objectives of Prestressing
Control or eliminate tensile stresses in the concrete (cracking) at least up to service load levels.Control or eliminate deflection at some specific load level.Allow the use of high strength steel and concrete.

Net Result of Prestressing
Improved performance of concrete in “ordinary” design situations (compared to R/C).Extended range of application of structural concrete (longer spans).Innovative forms of structures.

Partial PrestressingIntermediate state, in which tension and usually flexure cracking is allowed at full service load level. Some advantages are:- Prevents excessive camber at more
typical loads less than full service loads.
- Reduced prestressing force (less $$$)compared to full prestressing (zerotensile stresses at full service load).

Applications of Prestressed Concrete in the US and Canada –Figure 1
About 200,000 tons of prestressing steel used in US/Canada each year (~ ¼ of the total world consumption)

Prestressing MethodsPost-Tensioning: jacking against the member and the eccentricity is easily varied along the length of the member.

Post-Tensioning SequencePlace reinforcing cage and post-tensioning ducts inside the formwork.After casting and curing of the concrete, the tendons are tensioned and anchored with special jacks that react against the member.Unless unbonded tendons are being used, the duct is then grouted to complete the post-tensioning operation.Slides (PTI)-------
