[Virtual Presenter] Welcome everybody. Today were doing Module 3: Equivalent Load Lesson 3: Equivalent Load. In this lesson, we will learn that the equivalent load method represents the effect of a prestressing tendon on a concrete member, by replacing the tendon with a statically equivalent system of external loads acting on the concrete section, rather than treating it as an internal eccentric force. We will also learn that the three types of equivalent loads E/L, are the distributed equivalent load, the end anchorage equivalent load, and the change of section centroid equivalent load..
