The efficient design of prestressed structural components requires a few additional steps that go beyond the standard reinforced concrete design, from modeling tendons to the calculation of equivalent loads to the cross-section resistance design. Therefore, it is important that the software for prestressed concrete design is structured and the navigation is possible in the program. RFEM 5, with two add-on modules, RF-TENDON and RF-TENDON Design, fulfills these requirements and allows engineers to carry out the complete design of prestressed beams, frames, plates, buildings, and bridges according to EN 1992‑1‑1 with National Annexes and SIA 262.
According to EN 1993‑1‑1 [1], it is necessary to use the equivalent geometric imperfections with values that reflect the possible effects of all types of imperfections. EN 1993‑1‑1, Section 5.3, specifies basic imperfections for the global analysis of frames as well as member imperfections.
