Benefits of Analysis of prestress and bending stresses
Conceptualise the effect of pre-stresses in concrete flexural members and how pre-stresses can be used to reduce or completely remove undesirable stresses in these members,
Work out analysis problems so as to find out the resultant stresses in concrete and steel at a section and variations of stresses in structural members, and
Grasp how axially applied pre-stresses balance the transverse loads applied to concrete flexural members.
