2020 11 16 nbsp 0183 32 The main purpose of introducing pre tensioned concrete is to induce compressive stresses in a concrete member before the actual application of loads which will balance the tensile stresses applied in the member during construction The steel cables or tendons are stretched before the concrete is poured in Pre tensioning
