Return to MyCourses in PDF-format.
You are investigating a prestressed bolt connection. Anchor plates can be assumed to be rigid, concrete
anchoring capacity is not a limiting factor. Characteristic material properties and the symbols given can be
used. Anchor bolt is free to move inside the hole that has been drilled through the slab.
Partial factors for materials and loads can be neglected in this exercise.
- Yield and ultimate strength of the anchor bolt rod fy=950MPa ; fu=1050MPa
- Ultimate strain of the anchor bolt rod material εu=3,0 %
- Anchor rod diameter diam=35mm
- Modulus of elasticity of the bolt rod Ep=195GPa
- Concrete strength of the slab C35/45
- Thickness of the slab hL=900mm
- Dimensions of the anchor rod plates: 300 * 300 * t=50mm
Figure 1. Section of a slab that has been bolted with a Prestressed anchor plate.
Bolt is prestressed in such a way that the remaining prestress force in the bolt after losses is Pm.0 = 500kN
a) What is the total force in the bolt and the clearance between the bottom plate and concrete when the
load is Q1=0 kN ?
b) What is the total force in the bolt and the clearance between the bottom plate and concrete when the
load is Q2=300 kN ?
c) What is the total force in the bolt and the clearance between the bottom plate and concrete when the
load is Q3=600 kN ?
d) What is the contact pressure σc between the top plate and concrete slab when the load is Q4=400kN ?
e) What is the maximum force Qmax that the bolt allows? (Any partial safety factors for materials and
loads can be assumed to be y=1 due to simplification)
f) What should be the jacking force Pmax of the anchor rod? Slipping of anchor during stressing can be
assumed to be 1,25mm. (Friction and long term losses can be neglected.)

- Beam is supported by columns. You can assume hinged connection between beam and columns. You can also assume
that the beam is free to deform during stressing works (=>100% of the stressing force is transmitted to the beam).

You are investigating a composite slab that shall be casted to be a continuous structure. Prestressed slab is fully propped during casting of topping, see figure 1. Propping is installed after installation of composite slabs to the deformed shape of the composite slabs. Ordinary reinforcement is installed over the intermediate supports. After hardening of surface slab concrete, structure will be loaded with a live load qk . Information: - Prestressed slab concrete strength: C40/50 ; Strength of the prestressed slab during transfer of prestress force: C20/25 - Surface slab concrete strength: C30/37 ; - Bonded tendons. Grade Y1860S7 diameter=9,3mm (fp0,1k/fpk=1640MPa/1860MPa ; Ep=195GPa) - Grade of ordinary reinforcement B500B (fyk=500MPa, ES=200GPa). - Stress of tendons at release σmax=1200MPa. Tendon geometry is straight. - Total losses due to creep, shrinkage and relaxtation of tendons can be assumed Δσ=100MPa - Area of one tendon Ap1=52mm2 . Number of tendons np=22. - Liveload qLL=5 kN/m2 ; Figure 1. Prestressed composite slab. Sideview and section Calculation of the cross section properties a) Calculate the cross section properties of the composite section Calculation for the effects of actions b) Calculate the effects of actions at the edgemost midspan. Consider selfweight (SW), dead load (DL) and liveload (LL) c) Calculate the effects of actions over intermediate support. Calculation of stresses in SLS at the midspan and midsupport d) Calculate TOP and BOTTOM stresses at midspan for the characteristic combination of actions (PT+SW+DL+LL) in SLS. Use the cross section properties of the composite section using method of transformed section in SLS. Does the cross section crack? e) Calculate TOP and BOTTOM stresses at the support for the characteristic combination of actions (PT+SW+DL+LL) in SLS. Does the cross section crack? Calculation of bending moment resistance in ULS at the midspan and midsupport f) Calculate the design bending moment MEd.f in ULS and the (positive) bending moment resistance of the composite structure MRd.f in ULS at the edgemost midspan. Is the bending moment resistance of the structure adequate in ULS? g) Calculate the design bending moment MEd.s in ULS and the (negative) bending moment resistance of the composite structure MRd.s in ULS at the intermediate support. Is the bending moment resistance of the structure adequate in ULS? Geometry: L=7000mm ; bw=1200m ; (span and width of slab) h1=150mm (height of composite precast slab); h2=150mm (height of cast-in-situ slab); ep=45mm (eccentricity of tendons from the bottom of slab) es=50mm (eccentricity of rebar from top of surface slab)
