← TechnologyWhich risk increases substantially when lateral torsional buckling occurs during prestressing?
A)Sudden tendon anchorage slippage✓
B)Increased web crippling potential
C)Premature concrete spalling onset
D)Compromised composite action efficacy
💡 Explanation
Sudden tendon anchorage slippage becomes more probable because the instability creates eccentric loading, initiating the premature release of the prestressing force through anchorage failure, rather than designed stress release from concrete bonding.
