DEVELOPMENT OF FLEXURAL CAPACITY OF A FRP PRESTRESSED BEAM WITH VERTICALLY DISTRIBUTED TENDONS

FRP prestressed concrete beams with tendons vertically distributed throughout the section are susceptible to failure due to the progressive fracture of the most highly stressed tendons. This paper presents a theoretical approach to account for vertically distributed tendons, and discusses a design methodology to maximize the use of all tendons in the section.
