Simple post-tensioned bridge - Part 2 (prestress loading)

Shows the addition of prestress loading to the bridge deck modelled in Part 1. Tendon profiles are defined and assigned to the model, requiring specification of tendon properties, prestress force and jacking details, and selection of the lines of the model to which they apply. Concrete with creep properties and age assignments are made prior to solving. The deformed shape from self-weight and prestress loading is viewed for each in isolation, prior to looking at the effects of both for a long term loadcase. (version 19.0)
