Numerical Study of Using FRP and Steel Rebars in Simply Supported Prestressed Concrete Beams with External FRP Tendons

This study aimed at examining the feasibility of using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) rebars instead of steel ones in prestressed concrete beams (PCBs) with external FRP tendons. By applying an experimentally validated program, numerical tests were performed on simply supported PCBs, with investigat...
