In service Concrete Advanced in Design Defaults > Reinforcement and reinforcement design > Prestressing pre-tensioned can be used to define general properties and type of stressing of pre-tensioned tendons.
a) The user defines the real length of the tendon - this length includes also the overhang length (only prestressing losses are calculated on this real length of the tendon).
b) The user inputs the overhang-length on both ends. These overhang lengths are then subtracted from the total real length of the tendon. The length of the tendon used in the FEM calculation equals to the real length of the tendon decreased by the overhangs on both ends.
Example
Beam with length of 10.0 m, tendon with length of 11.0 m and overhangs 0,5 m on each end. → The tendon length for calculation of losses = 11.0 m; tendon length for FEM calculation = 10.0 m
