CAPTAIN ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF PRE-STRESSED REINFIRCED CONCRETE CONTINUOUS BEAMS AND SLABS ANALYSIS | DESIGN | DETAILING | C02
It also automatically applies pattern loading to entered dead and live loads. At ultimate limit state, moments and shears are redistributed to a specified percentage.
Cross-sections can include a mixture of rectangular, I, T, and L-sections. More complex sections, e.g., box bridge decks, can be modelled with the aid of the section properties calculation module, Prosec . Spans can also have constant or tapered sections.
The module allows you to specify the characteristics of the prestressing tendons/cables and use parabolic or harped shaped profiles. It includes a function for automatic generation of tendon profiles that are based on balancing a specified percentage of dead load. You can also place additional (conventional) steel reinforcement to contain cracking, control long-term deflection, and increase flexural or shear capacity at ULS. The module can also perform punching shear design checks for slabs and include the ability to use column heads (drop panels).
