Deformations and Support Reactions of Prestressed Concrete Beam without Prestress (Top) and with Prestress (Bottom)

Visualization of a prestressed concrete beam shows differences in self-weight and construction with and without prestressing.
The image shows the results of a prestressed concrete beam illustrating both the self-weight and the construction method with and without prestressing. The difference in structure and the use of a tendon are displayed and analyzed. This allows for a direct comparison of the methods and their effects on structural efficiency.
