| Sumario: | This paper presents an experimental research work to determine both the transmission and the anchorage lengths of seven-wire prestressing steel strands in different concrete mixes. A testing technique based on a bond behavior analysis by measuring the force supported by the prestressing strand on a series of specimens with different embedment lengths has been used. Relationships between the average bond stress for both the transmission length and anchorage length as a function of the concrete compressive strength have been found. Equations to compute transmission and anchorage lengths of 13 mm prestressing strands have been obtained. The experimental results have been compared with the theoretical prediction from proposed equations in the literature and with experimental results from other authors. 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
