A Practical Framework of Solid‐Element Stress Analysis for Evaluating Cracking Risk in Prestressed Concrete Bridges Considering Time‐Dependent and Local Anchorage Effects

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Cracking in prestressed box girders is frequently traced to the inability of beam‐element models to resolve local stress concentrations, yet three‐dimensional solid‐element analysis remains uncommon in routine bridge design because of the prohibitive manual effort involved in model preparation.
