A comparative study of continuous beams prestressed with bonded FRP and steel tendons

This paper presents a numerical investigation of the performance of continuous prestressed concrete beams with bonded fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) and steel tendons. A finite element model has been developed and is validated against the available test data. A numerical test is carried out on two-s...
