Assalam o Alaikum, I'm facing a problem related to the analysis of PT slab in etabs. After adding tendons in column strip the -ve deflection is increasing instead of decreasing. This is my first time that i'm doing PT slab analysis on etabs. So, i might be missing something. Please help me out. I'm checking deflection on combo of PT-FINAL + DEAD.

Dears ; THANKS FOR EVERY MEMBER IN THIS GREAT FORUM WHO SPENDS HIS TIME O GIVE ANSWERS. MAY YOU ANSWER MY ISSUE 1.in fig.(drop2) ;can the drop in slab be like shown exactly or it is preferable to be over column exactly,and why? 2.fig.(drop in slab); can the drop also be at the midspan? 3. how to account for the drop in desgin ?what is the considerations to take? I mean it will give additional weight . 4. Is there an obligatory locations for the drops? 5. is the detailing of steel fine to account for the stresses and development length? may give expanded discussion please. 6. To what difference in level between two slabs can we use this section as attached and how to guess the (x and y) dimenions?
