Pretensioned BFRP reinforced concrete beams: Flexural behaviour and estimation of initial prestress losses
Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRP) are becoming a popular reinforcement option for RC elements mainly due to good strength to weight ratio and resistance to corrosion. The main limitation for their wider application is their relatively low Young’s modulus, which results in unfavourable serviceability p...
