Abstract
In the paper authors analyze anchorage zones in the simply supported prestressed
beams in order to find the most sufficient tensile reinforcement. Using Struts and Ties (ST)
and Finite Element Method (FEM) models of pre-tensioned and post-tensioned beams
authors examine how the arrangement of tendons in the cross section influence the value of
tearing force in the anchorage zones. Two dimensional and three dimensional models are
performed and results from different computer programs (Autodesk Robot Structural
Analysis Professional 2011 and ABAQUS) are compared. Practical hints for designers are
pointed.
1 Introduction
In paper [3] authors presented theory concerning shear and transfer of prestress force
in anchorage zones of the pre-tensioned RC beams. The rules used so far in Poland and
rules given in Eurocode were presented and compared. Authors proposed to divide length
of the beam into three zones: A (anchorage), U (uncracked) and C (cracked). Calculations
of transmission length and anchorage length of pre-tensioned tendons were presented.
In this paper authors focus on the anchorage zones (zone A in [3]) of pre-tensioned
and post-tensioned beams and examine stresses (compression in concrete and tension in
stirrups) and tearing forces near the face of the beams. The aim is to find some simple rules
for designers, which could help engineers to decide how to arrange tendons in order to
receive good result (e.g. to avoid big or unexpected tearing force) and how to calculate (in
an easy way) the stirrups in the anchorage zone.
First authors explain, how to build (step by step) the Finite Element Method model of
2D Plane Stress Structure. Later results of several simulations are presented and analyzed,
finally some practical hints are given.

3 Analysis
Authors examined the set of real cross sections, used in the elements produced in
Poland for years. Nine different rectangular cross section (9 for pre-tensioned and 9 for
post-tensioned beams) and 64 different double-T cross section beams were analyzed.
Rectangular cross sections were of width 240-590mm and height 400-700mm with strands
1/2” and 3/8” (fpk =1860MPa). Double-T cross section beams were of height 440-900mm,
with web width 80mm, flanges width 200-340mm and 2I2,5mm, 7I2,5mm and 7I5mm
strands (fpk =1900MPa). Concrete class assumed in the analysis was C50/60 (for all
elements).
In order to find a solution, means how many stirrups are needed and how close to the
face of the beam they should be placed, the simple 2D Plane Stress model was assumed. It
is explained on the example of double-T cross section shown on the Fig. 2. On the left
hand side of the drawing there is a the real cross section with tendons. On the right hand
side simplified model taken for calculation is shown. Input data: strength of the concrete at
the moment of release of the tendons (it influences only on the transmission length) and
value of the prestressed force at the moment of release, means after immediate losses. It
was assumed, that at the moment of release fctm(t) is equal 75% of the its final strength, so
for class C50/60 fctm(t) = 75%×fctm = 0,75×4,1 = 3,1 MPa. Maximum stress level in
prestressed steel is 0,8×fpk, so P0 = Ap× 0,8 × fpk. In this example Ap = 34,36 mm2, fpk =
1900MPa, so for one tendon we receive P0 = 34,36×0,8×1900 = 52,2kN. Another
assumption is that Pm0 (value of the prestressed force after immediate losses) is equal
Pm0 = 0,95×P0 = 0,95×52,2 = 49,6kN. According to [1] force taken for calculations of
anchorage zones is equal Panchor = 1,2×Pm0 = 1,2×49,6 = 59,5kN (for one tendons; for 28
wires we receive 28×59,5 = 1667 kN).

Anchorage length depends on: way of release (for sudden release Į1 = 1,25; for
gradual release Į1 = 1,00), types of tendons (for 3- and 7-wires strands Į2 = 0,19; for
tendons with circular cross section Į2 = 0,25), nominal diameter of tendon (for 7I2,5mm
I=7,5mm), level of stress in tendons just after release – according to [1] maximum value is
Vmp0 = 0,8×fpk and bond stress fbpt. Bond stress depends on: types of tendons (for 3- and 7-
wires strands Kp1 = 3,2; for indented wires Kp1 = 2,7) and bond conditions (K1 = 1,0 for
good bond conditions; K1 = 0,7 for poor bond conditions). The design value of tensile
value of strength at the time of release is received from formulae below:

As mentioned before, in the model used for 2D Plane Stress Analysis thicknesses
were equal: width of the flange (240mm) and width of the web (80mm). Length of the
model should be not less than three times of the height of the beam, but one needs to take
under consideration the anchorage length of tendons (for example short beam with thick

tendons at the top). This length is needed to receive the nearly zero stresses in direction
Dimension of FEM elements need to fit the distance between tendons in the
anchorage zone at the distance of anchorage length. Outside this zone FEM elements can
be about 50×50mm.
In order to model the increment of the force along anchorage length (for pre-
tensioned elements) this length was divided in about 50 mm segments. The appropriate
value of the force was placed at each point. For example for top tendons 600mm/5mm = 13
points (nodes) with force 119,1/13 = 9,16kN; for bottom tendons 400mm/50mm = 9 nodes
with force 119,1/9 = 13,23kN were assumed. Example of the model is shown on the Fig. 3
For post-tensioned elements the whole value of the force (in each group of tendons)
is applied in one node at the end of the beam.
Additionally in Fig. 4 (top) the cross section of Vy stress along the length of the beam is

shown. It can be seen that suggested length of the beam in the model is proper.
The area of the diagram of tensile stresses in the Fig. 4 (bottom) is proportional to the
tearing force. One should find the horizontal line for which this area is the largest. Finally
the maximum tearing force is equal to the product of this area and the web thickness.

In previous paragraph it was explained step by step how to obtain a simple but
sufficient model for analyze. Authors examined also 3D models and compared results from
ARSA Pro 2011 and from ABAQUS. Results were identical, so finally authors focused on
the simplest model – 2D model and the most used and available software (i.e. ARSA Pro
2011).
Some results are presented below. Fig. 5 shows the comparison, how amount of
tendons influence the value of tearing force. It can be observed, that the less tendons are in
the cross section (horizontal axis of the diagram), the greatest is the relative percentage of
the tearing force (relative tearing force equals the tearing force divided by the prestressing
force Panchor) - vertical axis of the diagram.

4 Conclusions
The relative tearing force varies from 1% to 12% of the anchorage force Panchor for
pre-stressed elements (1-11% of Fpk) and from 2% to 11% for post-tensioned elements
(2-12% of Fpk). Authors never receive more than the level of 20% of the force Fpk, which is
suggested in [2] (in cases when exact calculation were not performed).
The relative tearing force increases for elements with small amount of tendons and
decreases when element is equipped with a lot of tendons. This tendency was presented on
diagrams.
As it is well known, designers should avoid arranging tendons in separated groups,
because the level of stresses increases very much between the separated groups of tendons.
