Abstract
A method of analysis is presented to predict the behavior of prestressed concrete structures with internal or external tendons up to ultimate. The structure is modeled as an assemblage of plane frame members connected at nodes. The prestressing tendon is treated as a member with a small moment of inertia connected to the structural nodes with short arms. Because the centroidal axis changes with cracking and time-dependent effects, the nodes are located on an arbitrarily chosen axis called the reference axis. The analysis includes the effects of tension stiffening, and geometric and material nonlinearities. Any nonlinear stress–strain relationship for concrete and reinforcements can be applied. The analysis accounts for friction and slip of external tendons at deviators, variation of tendon eccentricity with applied load (geometric nonlinearity), and opening of joints in precast segmental construction. The computer program developed to perform the analysis method is verified using experiments on simple and continuous beams with internal or external tendons.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
