Prestressing Concrete with CFRP Composites for Sustainability and Corrosion-Free Applications

Advancement in material science has enabled the engineers to enhance the strength and long-term behavior of concrete structures. The conventional approach is to use steel for prestressed bridge girders. Despite having good ductility and strength, beams prestressed with steel are susceptible to corro...
