Durability performance of a high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete for bridge applications

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates the durability performance of a coarse‐aggregate high‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (HPFRC) developed as a cost‐efficient material solution for precast bridge applications. A comprehensive experimental program was conducted to assess the resistance of the material to the principal deterioration mechanisms ...

Effective axial strength of laterally strengthened RC pier heads with post‐tensioning method

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the structural performance enhancement of reinforced concrete (RC) pier heads laterally strengthened with unbonded post‐tensioning (PT) to accommodate increased design loads following a deck replacement of an existing railway bridge.

Strengthening Effect of Prestressed Near-Surface-Mounted CFRP Tendon on Reinforced Concrete Beam

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
Efforts are being made to use FRP (fiber-reinforced polymer) for reinforcements instead of traditional construction materials like steel owing to its remarkable mechanical properties.

Prestress Loss Distributions along Simply Supported Pretensioned Concrete Beams

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2016
The prestressing forces in prestressed tendons undergo a process of reduction over a period of time. A common assumption is that prestress loss is constantly distributed throughout the span of a simply supported pretensioned concrete beam.

Flexural behavior of precast prestressed slabs with embedded building service systems

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Dry‐assembled precast concrete construction is rapidly spreading in many parts of the world due to the several advantages offered by industrialized construction. In order to speed up not only the assemblage of the structure, but also the full integrated building process, engineering systems (mechanical–electrical–plumbing) may be prefabricated

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

A Study on the Long-Term Performance Evaluation of Carbon-Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Tendon

open access: yesFibers
Carbon-fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) tendons have attracted increasing attention as corrosion-resistant prestressing elements for prestressed concrete and cable-supported structures; however, their practical implementation requires reliable ...

Analiza uticaja armiranobetonskog rama od sopstvenog opterećenja i spoljašnjih sila/Structural analysis of a prestressed concrete

open access: yesVojnotehnički Glasnik, 2014
U radu je prikazano delovanje sile prednaprezanja na armiranobetonski ram (u daljem tekstu AB ram). Posmatrani sistem je statički neodređen sa dva ukleštenja. Na njega deluje opterećenje prednaprezanje kablom silom Nk=600 kN, kao i sopstveno opterećenje.

State-of-the-Art Review on Determining Prestress Losses in Prestressed Concrete Girders

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Prestressing methods were used to realize long-span bridges in the last few decades. For their predictive maintenance, devices and dynamic nondestructive procedures for identifying prestress losses were mainly developed since serviceability and safety of
