Strand Grid

Strands are defined in horizontal rows. Multiple rows can be defined at the same elevation in the girder section. You must ensure the clear distance between strands is acceptable. The information in the strand row grid is:

Item	Description
Spacing, S1	Spacing between the two strands that straddle the vertical centerline of the girder. Enter a value of zero if there is a strand on the vertical centerline.
Spacing, S2	Spacing between strands in a row.
Type	Use the drop down list to select the strand type.
Left End, Y	Elevation of the strand row at the left end of the girder.
Left End, Face	Use the drop down list to select the face of the girder Y is measured from.
Left Harp Pt, X	Enter the location of the left harp point from the left end of the girder.
Left Harp Pt, Unit	Select the measurement unit for X.
Left Harp Pt, Y	Elevation of the strand row at the left harp point of the girder.
Left Harp Pt, Face	Use the drop down list to select the face of the girder Y is measured from.
Right Harp Pt, X	Enter the location of the right harp point from the left end of the girder.
Right Harp Pt, Unit	Select the measurement unit for X.
Right Harp Pt, Y	Elevation of the strand row at the right harp point of the girder.
Right Harp Pt, Face	Use the drop down list to select the face of the girder Y is measured from.
Right End, Y	Elevation of the strand row at the right end of the girder.
Right End, Face	Use the drop down list to select the face of the girder Y is measured from.
Ext. Strands, Left	Check if the strands are extended at the left end of the girder.
Ext. Strands, Right	Check if the strands are extended at the right end of the girder.
Debond, Left	Check if the strands are debonded at the left end of the girder. Enter the debond length.
Debond, Right	Check if the strands are debonded at the right end of the girder. Enter the debond length.
