Ultimate Bearing Strength of Post-tensioned Local Anchorage Zones in Lightweight Concrete

Currently, NCHRP Report 356 has published an equation to estimate the ultimate strength of the local zone in normal weight concrete. The local zone is the area of concrete directly ahead of the bearing plate. The equation can be broken into two distinct parts: unconfined bearing strength of concrete...
