Abstract
The purpose of the paper is to propose a method to give a more accurate prediction of prestress changes in prestressed concrete(PSC) bridges. The statistical approach of the method is using the measurement data of the structural system to develop a nonlinear regression analysis. Long-term prediction of prestress is achieved using nonlinear regression analysis. The proposed method is applied to the prediction of prestress of an actual prestressed concrete box girder bridge. The present study represents that confidence interval of long-term prediction becomes progressively narrower with the increase of in-situ measurement data. Therefore, the numerical results prove that a more realistic long-term prediction of prestress changes in PSC structures can be achieved by employing the proposed method. The prediction results can be efficiently used to evaluate prestress during the service life of structure so that the remaining prestress exceeds the control criteria.
