Topic: Deviator properties plz

Hi :)
Please i have a question about the external cables in prestressing technique
how can i know the deviator properties or how can i calculate the friction coefficient my problem is that i have external prestressing cables unbonded and no losses i have had , when i enter the factors by zero value example

radius = 0     &     friction coefficient = 0

it gives me error in slip and so on how can i solve it pleases

Thank you for you care and kind treatment :)

Re: Deviator properties plz

Hello, sorry, I don't understand what you intend to do - if you wish to set radius+friction to 0, I guess it does not make any sense to use the cable model at all...
If you wish help/advice with your modelling, please follow ATENA Troubleshooting, 2.1.1 to send us a sketch/photo + explanation.
