A.11.4 Zia and Mostafa, 1977<br />

Zia and Mostafa also realizing the inconsistencies with Equation A.16 suggested a new<br />

equation as well (Equation A.19) which incorporated their suggested transfer length equation,<br />

A.11.5 FHWA Memorandum, 1988<br />

Based on testing at the University of North Carolina in 1986 where poor transfer and<br />

development length results were recorded, the FHWA issued a memorandum specifying 4<br />

interim restrictions as listed in Section A.8.7. Several research programs were initiated based on<br />

the FHWA restrictions.<br />

A.11.6 Deatherage, Burdette and Chew, 1989<br />

Deatherage et al. conducted experimental testing on 20 AASHTO Type I girders with<br />

varying strand diameters and strand spacings and concrete design strengths of 5,000 psi. They<br />

suggested the flexural bond component suggested by AASHTO should be increased by 50<br />

percent as shown in Equation A.20 below.<br />
