Abstract

At the present time, criteria for the design of prestressed concrete columns are not included in the PCI Building Code Requirements nor the ACI Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Concrete. The  PCI Prestressed Concrete Column Committee has been studying the behavior of prestressed concrete columns for nearly two years. This paper attempts to summarize the knowledge to date and outline an  approach to the design of prestressed concrete columns.
