[EN] Transfer length is a significant parameter in the design of pretensioned
concrete members. This study reports the measured transfer
length of 15.2 mm (0.6 in.) prestressing strands. Twenty-four pretensioned
concrete ...

[EN] Pretensioned concrete (PC) is widely used in contemporary construction. Bond of prestressing strand is significant for composite-action between the strand and concrete in the transfer and flexural-bond zones of PC ...
In pretensioned concrete members, strand bond is necessary for transferring prestress force from the prestressing strands to the adjacent concrete. This paper proposes a new bond stress-slip model for 0.6 in. (15.2 mm), ...
Ramirez-Garcia, Alberto T.; Floyd, R.W.; Hale, W. M.; Martí Vargas, José Rocío(Elsevier, 2016)
[EN] This paper examines the effect of concrete compressive strength on the transfer length of prestressing strands. The paper includes the results from several research projects conducted at the University of Arkansas ...
The use of 0.7 in. (17.8 mm), Grade 270 (1860) prestressing strands in construction is slow regardless of the engineering advantages of these types of strands. The limited research data and unavailable design guidelines ...
