Masters Theses

Abstract

"This thesis is an analysis of the transverse tensile stress condition in an end block of a prestressed concrete beam. A stress analysis was made by photoelasticity and compared to the mathematical solutions and experimental solutions performed by others on concrete models. The photoelastic model was made from a piece of Columbia Resin, 39.

Whatever method is chosen to determine the stress condition, there is no exact code that can be established to fit the various type problems which arise"--Abstract, page 1.
