Consider actual losses in prestress (from BS5400) - derive initial prestress required
Check this against earlier assumptions of 60%UTS after long term, and if necessary
adjust prestress layout/forces until stresses are OK
Check stress levels along deck at each critical stage in structures life and if
necessary adjust prestress layout/forces until stresses are OK
Temperature stresses
Differential settlement
If complex deck arrangement :
Shear lag
Distortion and torsional warping
Consider details:
Anchorage of tendons
Horizontal profile of tendons
Tendon profile at anchors
Cover to tendons / anchors
Grouting tube location
Also bearings?
Drainage?
Expansion joints?
