Hi both,

Yes, we can confirm that explicit direct modelling of prestressing effects is indeed not currently possibly in SeismoStruct.

I feel so regret for reply
and I also want to know in future whether the function of prestressing effects can added in seismostruct and expand apply in engineering

Yes, we do have it listed down as a development to be introduced some time in the future, when time and resources will permit it.
