P*e = Wl/4.

Bent tendon should be same as bending moment.

Please describe more.

What is p in above answer?

P is load expressed in w.

W for P ok then how for e=l/4 comes?

P is the prestressing tensile force given to the tendon or stressing wire which transfer the stress to the concrete either by adhesion (in case of prestressed pretension) or by anchorage (in case of posttensioned prestress) , Generally the wire/strand/tension is high tensile steel with tensile strength upto 1850 N/mm^2,

Concept is known as load balancing concept in which bending moment is balanced with the prestressing force.

Thus bending moment = Prestressing moment.

Wl/4 = P*h.

H = WL/4P.

Thanks @Piyush Singh.

Ra * L = W * L/2,
Ra = WL/2,
Moment at center (Central dip) = Ra * L/2,
Then hp = w/2 * l/2,
= wl/4,
So, h = wl/4p.

What is central dip here?

Shift at any point = external moment/Prestressing force.
EM= wl/4 (for concentrated load),
Where.
Prestressing force = P.
Thus, shift at center = wl/4P.
