Non-distortional Prestressing

Concrete members deflect due to their own self weight. If prestressing force is applied in such a way that these deflections are eliminated due to the action of the prestressing force, it is called as non-distortional prestressing. In such a case, prestressing moments and self-weight moments balance each other and the concrete member is subjected to an axial force and bending moments due to externally applied loads only.
