ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT DETAILED ANSWERS ALREADY GRADED A+
1986 - (answer)First patent for prestresse concrete concrete was in (what year)
Prestressed Concrete - (answer)a form of concrete in which internal stresses are
introduced by means of high strength pre-strained reinforcement.
bond and/or bearing mechanisms, achieve stress - (answer)Prestressed relies on ____
and/or _______ to achieve _____ transfer to conrete.
Prestresssing Forces - (answer)induce internal actions ofsuch magnitude and distribution
to counteract the external loading.
P.H Jackson of San Francisco - (answer)First patent for prestressed concrete
tension; compression - (answer)In prestressed concrete members, steel is in _____ and
concrete is in _____, even before the application of any external loading.
Full Prestressing - (answer)sufficient precompression to ensure "crack-free"at full design
load. Freyssinet 1930.
Partial Prestressing - (answer)Precompression is not sufficient to prevent cracks under full
design load. Therefore, the member will normally contain some conventional
reinforcement bars.
Partial Prestressing - (answer)improves the structural performance and is commonly used
