Abstract : Three dimensional stress analysis of anchorage zone in prestressed post-tensioned concrete beam is presented in this paper. Finite element method is used for the present analysis that was carried out using commercial software ANSYS. A case study is performed in which the loaded area ratio (k) is varied for beam subjected to concentric loading & eccentric loading and various stress distribution are obtained. The obtained results are compared with the results available in the literature and presented. Effect of eccentricity on spalling zone stress is also discussed.
