Practical Modeling Technique
for Transfer Length
Background
Development length (standard reinforcing steel)
• The length required to anchor the reinforcing to fully
develop the stress in the reinforcing at the nominal
moment capacity of the member (AASHTO)
• The length of embedment required to prevent slip
between reinforcing and the surrounding concrete
when that reinforcing is placed in tension (or
compression)

Top-strand Effect
Deformed Bar
> 12”
• Provisions exist for
development length of
deformed bars
• Ld multiplied by 1.3 (ACI)
and 1.4 (AASHTO) with
> 12 inches of fresh
concrete below the bar
• Provisions do not exist
for the development or
transfer length of
prestressing strands

Background
Top-strand Effect
– Is top-strand effect a factor of the amount of
concrete beneath the strand?
– New hypothesis: Top-strand effect may be a factor
of the amount of concrete above the strand rather
than the amount below or a combination thereof

Conclusions
• Top-strand effect was more dependent on
the amount of concrete cast above the
strand
• On average Lt increased ½ in. for every 1 in.
