Abstract: The behavior of a two‐span composite beam, consisting of a concrete slab shear connected to a steel beam and prestressed near the central support region, was studied experimentally. The test beam was 37 ft (11.28 m) long ...

Abstract: The behavior of partially prestressed composite beams consisting of a concrete slab supported by a steel beam is analytically evaluated. The prestress is introduced in the negative moment regions when the slab acts compositely ...
