The strand grid lists all of the strands modeled in the girder. Strand extension information is defined in this grid.
Item | Description |

Strand # | Identifies a pair of strands, one on either side of the girder centerline. Refer to the girder image for strand location. |
Extend Left | Check this box to model a strand as extended at the left end of the girder |
Extend Right | Check this box to model a strand as extended at the right end of the girder |
NOTE: Extended strands are considered to be fully developed along their entire length at the strength limit states.
NOTE: Extended strands are only available if the "Allow Strand Extensions" option is enabled in the Project Criteria.
