Course Objectives:
- To bring the students to such a level so as to enable them to take the appropriate decision in respect of choice of pre-stressed section over R. C. C. as a civil engineer.
- To make the candidate to understand the analysis of Pre-stressed Concrete sections and losses in pre-stress.
- To make the candidate able to understand and implement the guidelines of Indian Standard code for analysis and design sections using limit state philosophy.

Module VI
Analysis and Design of Pre-stressed Concrete Members for Limit State of Collapse Flexure and Serviceability Cracking General philosophy of design, Analysis and design of members in flexure, permissible stresses in concrete and steel at different stages, suitability of section, safe cable zone 09 Contribution to outcome On successful completion of the course, the students shall be able:
- To understand the basic concept, application and behaviour of pre-stressing over that of the RC structure.
- To have knowledge of modern engineering tools necessary for pre-tensioning and posttensioning technology.
- To evaluate various losses occurring in pre-stressed concrete structure
- To analyze the various pre-stressed components of the structure and design the same for flexure as well as shear using relevant IS Code.
- To analyze pre-stressed concrete members for limit state of serviceability for cracking and deflection
Theory examination:
- Question paper will comprise of six questions; each carrying 20 marks.
- The first question will be compulsory which will have the short questions having weightage of 4-5 marks covering the entire syllabus.
- The remaining five questions will be based on all the modules of entire syllabus. For this, the module shall be divided proportionately further, and the weightage of the marks shall be judiciously awarded in proportion to the importance of the sub-module and contents thereof.
- There can be an internal choice in various sub-questions/ questions in order to accommodate the questions on all the topics/ sub-topics.
- The students will have to attempt any three questions out of remaining five questions.
- Total four questions need to be attempted.
Oral Examination:

Site Visit/ Field Visit:
The students shall visit the site where the construction of structure using pre-stressed concrete is going on. The students shall prepare the detailed report thereof and submit as a part of the term work.
Term Work:
The term work shall consist of the assignments. The assignments shall be given covering the entire syllabus in such a way that the students would attempt at least three problems/ questions on each modules/ sub-modules and contents thereof further. The report of the site visit/ field visit shall also form a part of the term work. Distribution of Term Work Marks: The marks of term-work shall be judiciously awarded depending upon its quality. The final certification and acceptance of the term-work warrants the satisfactory and the appropriate completion of the assignments, properly compiled report of the site visit /field visit and the minimum passing marks to be obtained by the student. The following weightage of marks shall be given for different components of the term work. Assignments: 15 Marks Report of the Site Visit/Field Visit: 05 marks. Attendance: 05 Marks Further, while giving weightage of marks on the attendance, following guidelines shall be resorted to: 75%- 80%: 03 Marks; 81%- 90%: 04 Marks; 91% onwards: 05 Marks
