CFVR5222 - Time-dependent losses. Uncoupled calculation type (EC2)

The model is a prestressed beam with a length of 16 m
The beam is made of C40/50 concrete and the tendons are made of Y1960S3 steel.
The section is rectangular 1 x 0.8, with reinforcement of s500 steel.
The aim of the example is to verify the calculation of prestressing losses for active tendons.

Element types used in the model: BEAM44

Needed CivilFEM Modules:
Geotechnical Module
Bridges and Civil Non Linearities Module
Advanced Prestressed Concrete Module

The example can be launched on an educational license.
