Abstract

In this paper, five different tensioning schemes for transverse and vertical prestressed tendons are proposed respectively. The numerical simulation and analysis was carried out by the finite element software Midas Fea to evaluate this interactive effect. The optimal scheme is that transverse tendons are firstly tensioned from the bottom to the top and then vertical tendons are tensioned from the middle to the side symmetrically.
