Customize or select limiting stresses for concrete at release and final conditions.
Customize or select length multipliers for transfer and development lengths.
Automatically generate straight and draped strand patterns or manually input the pattern for analysis.
Specify transformed section properties.
Customize the maximum number of strands that can be debonded, as the maximum percentage of each row, or the total number of strands in each section.
Specify end and midspan debonding (shielding) manually or have the program compute it automatically.
While using a draped/straight pattern, only the straight strands can be debonded.
Customize varying percentages of strand pull for various strand groups.
Copy beam strand patterns to other beams in same span or other spans.
Retains previously designed strand patterns when changes are made to geometry, materials, or loads information.
Specify or have the program compute release and final prestress losses according to the CHBDC Specifications.
Optionally compute Moment Capacity by Strain Compatibility.
Automatically design top flange tension reinforcement at release.
Check design status at critical points for release and final stresses as well as for ultimate loads and cracking load criteria.
Perform vertical, anchorage zone, and horizontal shear reinforcement design.
Optionally, input Stirrup reinforcement schedules manually or use auto-design algorithms.
Store commonly used stirrup schedules and prestressed strand patterns (including debonding and pull percentages) in the library file, and reuse across projects.
Automatically compute deck reinforcement required for continuity.
Specify Negative Moment Continuity steel in deck slab. Compare required vs. provided capacities.
Report camber and deflection computations at tenth point locations along the beam, including live load deflections.
