How the Bursting Tensile Forces produced

These are tensile forces produced due to concentrated longitudinally applied prestressing forces in the end zone of a post-tensioned concrete member. These are directed in a lateral direction and may cause bursting of concrete in a lateral direction due to tension. To contain these forces, lateral reinforcement is provided in the end zone of post-tensioned concrete members.
