PRESTRESS User's Guide. Beta Version. Prestressed Concrete Beam Design and Analysis

Abstract

PRESTRES is a prestressed concrete beam design and analysis program for simply supported beams. The program has been tailored for highway bridge girders; however, with modifications, it can be used to design piers and buildings. The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and the Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI) standard bridge beams and design procedures are currently used in the program.
