Should "Approximate Tendon Losses" should be checked when construction stage analysis is included?

Creation date: 11/7/2018 2:59 AM Updated: 9/12/2023 12:33 PM approximate tendon losses prestress loss

Question:

Answer:

There are two ways to consider long-term losses of prestress in midas Civil.

1) Apply Time Dependent Material (Creep & Shrinkage) during the construction stage analysis.

2) Apply 'Approximate Tendon Losses' function.

Thus, it is not necessary to use 'Approximate Tendon Losses' function if you define Time Dependent Material (Creep & Shrinkage) during the construction stage analysis.
