EVALUATION OF THE TIME DEPENDENT PRESTRESS LOSSES SEPARATELY FOR THE TOP AND BOTTOM TENDONS OF A PRETENSIONED CONCRETE MEMBER The variation of strain of the concrete at time t is given by [5] where: Δσc(t) is the variation of stress in the concrete at time t; χ is the aging coefficient [6, 7]. The variation of strain of the prestressing steel at time t is where: χr is the reduced relaxation coefficient [8]. It is assumed that on the level of the centroid of the tendons the variation of strain of the concrete is equal to that of the prestressing steel, Δε c(t) =Δεp(t), so the variation of stress in the prestressing steel at time t is given by The equation (4) can be transformed to: By the omitting the effect of relaxation of the prestressing steel, it might be assumed that a ratio of the variation of stress in the concrete to that in the prestressing steel is equal to a ratio of the stress in the concrete (on the level of the centroid of the tendons) Δσc,p to that in the prestressing steel Δσp,p. By using the equation (6), the equation (5) for the top tendons can be expressed as: For the bottom tendons: 106 A R C H I T E C T U R E C I V I L E N G I N E E R I N G E N V I R O N M E N T 3/2019 ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( )
