CAPTAIN ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF PRE-STRESSED REINFIRCED CONCRETE CONTINUOUS BEAMS AND SLABS ANALYSIS | DESIGN | DETAILING | C02
Summary Captain (Computer Aided Post Tensioning Analysis Instrument) designs most types of continuous prestressed beam and slab systems from single span to twenty-spans, encountered in typical building projects. Cross sections can include a mixture of rectangular, I, T and L-sections as well as user defined sections and tapered sections.
The module automatically applies pattern loading to entered dead and live loads. At ultimate limit state, moments and shears are redistributed to a specified percentage.
Captain can calculate estimates for quantities and tendon profile schedules can be generated for use with Padds . Schedules can be edited and printed using Padds.
What makes this module special?
• Automatic pattern loading and moment redistribution • Complex cross sections • Quantities and schedules output
Detailed Description Most types of continuous prestressed beam and slab systems, encountered in typical building projects, can be designed with PROKON®’s Captain module. The workings of Captain are similar to that of Continuous Beam , but it adds additional design features such as bonded systems, e.g., bridge decks, and unbounded systems, e.g., flat slabs.
