In recent time the construction industry need to be more efficient in terms of both designing and execution. The approach towards development must encompass that it should be economical, quick and maintain the quality. Concrete is one of the material that is used widely in all the type of construction. Due to its strength, availability and affordability it is the first choice of the material. The Precast concrete members are the solution for the construction material in industry due to its economic advantage in the rapidity of the construction. For the analytical, various methods are utilized to study the behavior of precast members where long mathematical calculations and experimental testing is performed. These methods are very much time consuming and use of material is very costly. The solution for this analysis and designing is the Finite Element method. In this study Finite element tool is utilized to analyse the prestressed member. The software utilized is Ansys where the model and analysis of the element is less time consuming and is very cost effective.
