This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Slip of Anchorage - (Measured in Millimeter) - Slip of Anchorage is the distance by which the anchorage gets slipped when the force is transmitted from anchorage to tendon.
Prestressing Force - (Measured in Kilonewton) - Prestressing Force is the force internally applied to the prestressed concrete section.
Cable Length - (Measured in Millimeter) - Cable Length is the length of tendon used for prestressing in the concrete section.
Tendon Area - (Measured in Square Millimeter) - Tendon Area represents the cross section area of the cable used for prestressing.
Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement - (Measured in Pascal) - Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement is a measure of its stiffness.

10+ Force Variation Diagram and Loss Due to Anchorage Slip Calculators

Settling Length given Prestressing Force Immediately after Loss
Go Settling Length = sqrt(Slip of Anchorage*Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement/(Prestressing force after Immediate Losses*Simplified Term))
Prestressing Force after Immediate Loss when Reverse Friction Effect is Considered
Go Prestressing force after Immediate Losses = (Prestress Force at a Distance/(exp(Simplified Term*Distance from Left End)))+Prestress Drop
Prestressing Force at distance x when Reverse Friction is Considered
Go Prestress Force at a Distance = (Prestressing force after Immediate Losses-Prestress Drop)*exp(Simplified Term*Distance from Left End)
Pressure Drop when Anchorage Slip and Settling Length are Considered
Go Prestress Drop = (Slip of Anchorage*Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)/(Settling Length*0.5)
Area of Prestressing Steel given Settling Length
Go Steel Area in Prestress = 0.5*Prestress Drop*Settling Length/(Slip of Anchorage*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)
Anchorage Slip given Settling Length
Go Slip of Anchorage = 0.5*Prestress Drop*Settling Length/(Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)
Loss of Prestress due to Slip
Go Prestressing Force = Tendon Area*(Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement*Slip of Anchorage)/Cable Length
Slip of Anchorage
Go Slip of Anchorage = Prestressing Force*Cable Length/(Tendon Area*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)
Settling Length given Pressure Drop
Go Settling Length = Prestress Drop/(2*Simplified Term*Prestressing force after Immediate Losses)
Pressure Drop given Setting Length
Go Prestress Drop = 2*Prestressing force after Immediate Losses*Simplified Term*Settling Length

Slip of Anchorage Formula

Slip of Anchorage = Prestressing Force*Cable Length/(Tendon Area*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)
Δ = F*PLCable/(ATendon*Es)

What is loss due to Slip of Anchorage?

Anchorage slip is the distance moved by the friction wedges (in post tensioned members) after releasing the jacks at the ends of the member and before the wires get fixed perfectly in wedges, the loss during anchoring which occurs with wedge type grips is normally allowed for on the site by over-extending.
