and Specifications Clear Span 48 ft Clear width 29 ft Live Loading HS20 Concrete strength fc ’ 3000 psi
Future protective cover 15 pf Grade 40 reinforcement The bridge will consist of six c girders By AASHTO
specifications, an allowable concrete stress of fc = 0.40 fc ’ = 1200 psi And an allowable steel stress of fs
= 0.5 fy = 20,If prestress is measured at the time of pulling the wire, the stress
is termed as the jacking stress. Deducting the loss due to anchorage take-up
and friction, initial prestress is obtained. Effective stress is usually the initial
stress minus other four losses namely:
