SERVICE LOAD BEHAVIOR OF CONCRETE MEMBERS PRESTRESSED WITH UNBONDED TENDONS

The results are presented of an experimental and analytical investigation of the flexural response characteristics of concrete members prestressed with unbonded tendons. The paper describes many aspects of behavior including cracking, load deflection response, and stresses in the tensile reinforcement observed in the experiments. A general method of elastic section analysis is developed and used to reproduce the experimentally observed results of service load stresses in the tensile reinforcement.
