Flexural behavior of prestressed

This paper presents an experimental study on the effect of prestressing force on the flexural behavior of unbonded prestressed concrete (UPC) strengthened by Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. The testing program was carried out on nine large-scale UPC rectangular beams.

The application of prestressing steel is restricted in highly corrosive environment area due to corrosion of prestressing steel, which leads to reduction in strength and it may cause sudden failure. Carbon textile is considered as an alternate material due to its corrosive resistance property, high tensile strength and perfectly elastic. In this study, an experimental investigation was carried out to study the flexural behavior of prestressed and non-prestressed carbon textile reinforced concrete plates.
