Equilibrium Reinforcement, if it is building construction and bridged.
1. Spalling reinforcementSpalling stresses are established behind the loaded area of anchor blocks and this causes breaking away of surface concrete. These stresses are induced by strain incompatibility with Poisson’s effects or by the shape of stress trajectories.
2. Equilibrium reinforcementEquilibrium reinforcement is required where there are several anchorages in which prestressing loads are applied sequentially.
3. Bursting ReinforcementTensile stresses are induced during prestressing operation and the maximum bursting stress occurs where the stress trajectories are concave towards the line of action of the load. Reinforcement is needed to resist these lateral tensile forces.
