Hi
I want to know whether can modelling prestressed reinforced concrete beam in seismostruct and how to do it,thanks a lot

There is no possibility to do it in Seismostruct directly. You can only simulate the prestressed beam by applying axial forces to the center of gravity of the tendon. But in this way only the axial stresses are simulated, not the bending moments due to the shape of tendon.

Do search this Forum for "prestress" as well.
