ASSUMPTIONS:
1. |
Some calculations are based on elements of AS5100.5 (2004). Equations and expressions in such cases are clearly identified. |
2. |
The concrete compression block can lie either within the insitu concrete slab, the section flanges or the web. |
3. |
The effect of passive (non-prestressed) reinforcement in the tensile zone is included when performing the Ultimate Limit State check. |
LIMITATIONS & RESTRICTION:
1. |
Differential thermal strains are excluded from the SLS Analysis using the strain compatibility method and no prestress losses are calculated |
2. |
Redistribution of creep stresses to slab is not performed. |
3. |
Deflection and hog are calculated at midspan only and time-dependent analysis is not performed. |
4. |
Debonding lengths are not calculated. |
5. |
The effective width of the Super-T flange is not calculated. |
