Experimental and numerical studies on prestressed concrete box girders strengthened with PVA-ECC and external prestressing

To improve the shear capacity and repair shear cracks in prestressed concrete box girders, a novel strengthening method utilizing Polyvinyl Alcohol-Engineered Cementitious Composite (PVA-ECC) was proposed and studied. The integrated method consisted of section enlargement with PVA-ECC and decentrali...
