Post-Tensioned Slab Design


The purpose of this example is to verify the slab stresses and the required area of mild steel strength reinforcing
for a post-tensioned slab.

A one-way, simply supported slab is modeled. The modeled slab is 254 mm thick by 914 mm wide and spans
9754 mm, as shown in shown in Figure 1.

A 254-mm-wide design strip is centered along the length of the slab and has been defined as an A-Strip. B-strips have been placed at each end of the span,
perpendicular to Strip-A (the B-Strips are necessary to define the tendon profile). A tendon with two strands, each having an area of 99 mm2, has been added to the A-
Strip. The self weight and live loads have been added to the slab. The loads and post-tensioning forces are as follows.
Loads: Dead = self weight, Live = 4.788 kN/m2
The total factored strip moments, required area of mild steel reinforcement, and slab stresses are reported at the mid-span of the slab. Independent hand
calculations are compared with the results and summarized for verification and validation of the results.
