Info

Test results showed conclusively that shear cracking in the transfer length region across the bottom strands did not induce significant strand slip if stirrup density was doubled over the current AASHTO (1996) specified density in the region. There was no indication throughout this analysis that need existed to differentiate between slate HPLC and normal weight HPC. With regard to development length, for concrete compressive strengths over 8,000 psi, the prediction of development length was the same for both lightweight and normal weight concrete. 5-26
Chapter 6. Prestress Losses in HPLC 6.1 Introduction One goal of this research was to determine how the use of HPLC would affect the loss of prestressing force in bridge girders. The creep and shrinkage data found from HPLC cylinders and from AASHTO Type II girders made with HPLC (Chapter 5) were used to estimate prestress losses in bridge girders. These experimental losses are compared with four models: AASHTO refined and AASHTO lump sum (AASHTO-LRFD, 1998), ACI Committee 209 (ACI-209, 1997), and the PCI method (PCI, 1998), which are presented in Appendix D. For comparison purposes, ACI-209 estimates were computed for 40 years after prestressing assuming that time as the final loss state. Actual losses were computed from measured, experimental strains of AASHTO Type II girders. The experimental data did not include steel relaxation losses. Experimental strains were projected to the 40-year condition for comparison with the estimates from the standards. 6.2 Strain Measurements and Comparison to Predicted Losses Strain measurements of those girders as shown in Figure 6.1 provided experimental data for actual prestress computations. Table 6.1 presents the comparison between measured and estimated prestress losses for the 8,000-psi and 10,000 psi HPLC girders. -1000 Microstrains (in/in x 10 -6 ) -800 -600 -400 Deck pouring -200 8,000-psi Individual Girder Result 10,000-psi Individual Girder Result 0 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 Age (Days) Figure 6.1.
