123.23 Internal and external Prestressing (concrete cover and anchorage distances)
The minimum distances are recalled as follows:
• Grouping on several lines
a
o
: minimum distance between the axes of two anchorages
a
o
= A (or B)* + 30 mm (*depending on the orientation of the tromplates)
b
o
: minimum distance between the axis of an anchorage and the concrete face.
• Grouping on one line
This arrangement concerns for example, the ancho-
rages in the web of a beam or segment or ancho-
rages of transverse prestressing tendons in the upper
slab of a bridge.
b
oo
: minimum half-thickness of the wall

a
o’
: minimum distance between the axes of two anchorages.
a
o
= I (or J)* + 30 mm (*depending on the orientation of the bearing plates - see § 112.32 to 112.33).
b
o
: minimum distance between the axis of an anchorage and the concrete face.
The minimum distances are recalled as follows:
Note: For concrete such as f
cmin
> 43 MPa, refer to the K system technical
guidebook, appendix 2, section 5.
• Lateral cover and distances between anchorage
axis. Grouping on one line.
b
oo
: minimum half-thickness of the wall.
Note: The asterisks indicate the lower limit for b
oo’
whatever the upper class of concrete used.
For concrete such as f
cmin
≥
38 MPa and providing special plates are being used, the above values of b
oo
can be reduced (refer to the K system technical guide-
book, appendix 2, section 5).
