Prestressed Concrete Course
This course equips you with mastery in prestressed concrete design for long-span beams and floor systems. You will learn tendon layout, section sizing, load paths, code compliance checks, losses estimation, and construction detailing to create safer, slimmer, and more efficient structures for actual construction projects.

What will I learn?
Gain practical expertise in designing efficient long-span prestressed concrete members confidently. Master tendon profiles, selection of prestressing steel, bonded and unbonded systems, load paths, and tributary widths. Practise sizing cross-sections, verifying serviceability and strength, estimating deflections and losses, and implementing key code provisions for safe, economical, and buildable designs.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Design prestressing layout: determine tendon sizes, profiles, and forces for secure long spans.
- Optimise cross-sections: select I, T, or solid beams to manage strength and weight effectively.
- Perform load and deflection analysis: model beams, combine loads, and confirm service limits quickly.
- Execute ultimate and shear design: conduct flexural, shear, cracking, and code checks thoroughly.
- Detail construction aspects: manage anchorage, losses, quality control, and on-site stressing procedures.
