Modifies a tendon.

PREP7 : PRESTRESSED CONCRETE: Tendon editor

UTP

Tendon number.

Label

Label identifying the modification to do.

Label

VALUE1

VALUE2

Description

MAT

Material number

 

Prestressing steel material number.

ATN

Area of each tendon

 

Area of each tendon.

DSH

Diameter

 

Diameter of the casing.

P0MAX

Force

 

Initial tendon stress (the default value is assigned by the active code).

P0

Force

 

Anchorage tendon stress (the default value is assigned by the active code).

METHOD

0,1,2,3,4

 

Post-prestressed method:

0: Both extremes simultaneous (default value)

1: Prestressed from the initial end (cut=1)

2: Prestressed from the final end.

3: Prestressed from the initial end and later prestressed from the final end.

4: Prestressed from the final end and later prestressed from the initial end.

SIGCP

Cut number

Stress

Concrete stress used for creep losses calculation.

ACTIVE

0 or 1

 

If ACTIVE=1, tendon activated

If ACTIVE=0, tendon deactivated. It is not taken into account.

PADD

Point number

 

Adds a control point in plan view.

PDEL

Point number

 

Deletes a control point in plan view.

EADD

Point number

 

Adds a control point in elevation view.

EDEL

Point number

 

Deletes a control point in elevation view.

ORDER

Prestressing order

 

Order that will continue in the prestressed of the tendons. A tendon with number of low order it is tensioned before a tendon with number or more order.

PSTRLN

Point number

 

Insert a straight line in plan view, from point number VALUE1 to the next point defined in the tendon. The slopes of the points are changed to fit a straight line.

PSTRIN

Point number

 

Insert a straight line in plan view, without changing the location of point number VALUE1 and its slope. The location and slope of the next point defined in the tendon is changed to fit a straight line.

PSTROUT

Point number

 

Insert a straight line in plan view, changing the location of point number VALUE1 and its slope. The location and slope of the next point defined in the tendon will remain unchanged.

PPARIN

Point number

 

Insert a vertical axis parabola in plan view, between point number VALUE1 to the next point defined in the tendon. The slope of the point next to VALUE1 will be changed.

PPAROUT

Point number

 

Insert a vertical axis parabola in plan view, between point number VALUE1 to the next point defined in the tendon. The slope of the point VALUE1 will be changed.

ESTRLN

Point number

 

Insert a straight line in elevation view, from point number VALUE1 to the next point defined in the tendon. The slopes of the points are changed to fit a straight line.

ESTRIN

Point number

 

Insert a straight line in elevation view, without changing the location of point number VALUE1 and its slope. The location and slope of the next point defined in the tendon is changed to fit a straight line.

ESTROUT

Point number

 

Insert a straight line in elevation view, changing the location of point number VALUE1 and its slope. The location and slope of the next point defined in the tendon will remain unchanged.

EPARIN

Point number

 

Insert a vertical axis parabola in elevation view, between point number VALUE1 to the next point defined in the tendon. The slope of the point next to VALUE1 will be changed.

EPAROUT

Point number

 

Insert a vertical axis parabola in elevation view, between point number VALUE1 to the next point defined in the tendon. The slope of the point VALUE1 will be changed.
