Behavior of Concrete Beams Prestressed with Hybrid Tendons Using Modified Deformation-Based Approach

Abstract

AbstractThis paper presents results from an analytical and experimental study to investigate the overall flexural behavior of simply supported beams prestressed with hybrid (i.e., a combination of bonded and unbonded) steel/carbon fiber–reinforced polymer ...Practical ApplicationsIn this study, a simplified approach is proposed for assessing the overall flexural behavior of hybrid prestressed concrete (PC) members utilizing a combination of different prestressing systems and/or prestressing materials. The ...
