What is the meaning of Elastic Shortening of Concrete

At the transfer stage, compressive prestressing force is transferred to the concrete. Due to this compressive force, concrete is subjected to an instant shortening of length in the direction of  this force depending on the magnitude of prestressing force. This is called as elastic shortening of concrete.
