Product Details
PULT is a computer program for strength analysis or
design of prestressed concrete sections. In its
analysis mode, for a known geometry and reinforcement
(including both prestressed and non-prestressed
reinforcement) PULT computes the moment capacity of
the section. In its design mode, for a given geometry
and prestressing, PULT determines the nonprestressed
reinforcement needed to supplement the prestressing to
meet the demand of design moment.
PULT can handle rectangular or T sections with tension
and / or compression reinforcement and reinforced with
a single tendon. The prestressing can be bonded or
unbonded.
The software has a comprehensive manual, which
explains its theoretical background and offers
numerous examples. The software handles one layer of
tension bars, one layer of compression bars, and
combines the prestressing into one resultant tendon.
The software is indispensable for spot checking and
verifications of existing designs of prestressed/post-tensioned
members, as well as design of new sections. |
