Book excerpt: These volumes contain the edited documents presented at the NATO-Sponsored Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on Partial Pre8tre88ing, from Theory to Practice, held at the CEBTP Research Centre of Saint-Remy-Ies-Chevreuse, France, June 18-22, 1984. The workshop was a direct extension of the International Symposium on Nonlinearity and Continuity in Pre8tre88ed Concrete, organized by the editor at the University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Canada, July 4-6, 1983. The organization of the NATO-ARW on Partial Prestressing was prompted by the need to explain and reduce the wide dirrerences of expert oph:iipn· on the subject, which make more difficult the accep tance of partial prestressing by the profession at large. Specifically, the workshop attempted to: - produce a more unified picture of partial presetressing, by con fronting and, where possible, reconciling some conflicting American and European views on this subject; - bring theoretical advances on partial prestressing within the grasp of engineering practice; - provide the required background for developing some guidelines on the use of partial prestressing, in agreement with existing structural concrete standards. The five themes selected for the workshop agenda were: (1) Problems of Partially Prestressed Concrete (PPC). (2) Partially Prestressed Concrete Members: Static Loading. (3) PPC Members: Repeated and Dynamic Loadings. (4) Continuity in Partially Prestressed Concrete. (5) Practice of Partial Prestressing.

Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THESIS ENTITLED Full-range Behaviour of Concrete Beams Partially Prestressed with Unbonded Tendons submitted by TSO Karmen for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in February 2007 External prestressing can be applied to both new construction and retrofitting of existing reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. The behaviour of prestressed concrete structures with unbonded tendons differs significantly from that of those with bonded tendons after the working stage. To assess the safety of such structures, it is necessary to carry out full-range analysis, with particular attention to the post-peak behaviour. This thesis presents the results of an experimental study of externally prestressed concrete beams with either conventional or non-conventional tendons, which were tested to failure. The specimens tested all had T-sections prestressed by two external tendons with one on each side. Two types of tendon were used, namely 7-wire steel strands of 10.5 mm diameter and aramid fibre reinforced polymer (AFRP) tendons of 13.5 mm diameter. Unlike the steel tendons, the fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) tendons are not prone to corrosion. However, the prestressing operations for FRP tendons had to be modified to suit. In the experiments, different factors were taken into consideration. They included the level of prestressing force, concrete strength, area of non-prestressed steel reinforcement and partial prestressing ratio. - 1 - The full-range behaviour of partially prestressed concrete with either external unbonded steel or fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) tendons was significantly affected by second-order effects, as demonstrated in the strain profiles of top and bottom non- prestressed reinforcement and the variations of curvature and neutral axis depth. During the investigation of tendon force, the friction loss at deviator was found to be much greater than the friction loss estimated from the coefficients of friction given by the manufacturers. The equivalent coefficients of friction of steel and AFRP tendon were studied. Lastly, by using various ductility and deformability indices, the ductility or deformability of partially prestressed concrete with external unbonded tendons were investigated. The most suitable ductility or deformability index is proposed.

Book excerpt: The design of structures in general, and prestressed concrete structures in particular, requires considerably more information than is contained in building codes. A sound understanding structural behaviour at all stages of loading is essential. The aim of this book is to present a detailed description and explanation of the behaviour of prestressed concrete members and structures both at service loads and at ultimate loads and, in doing so, provide a comprehensive guide to design. The design criteria and procedures contained in several major building codes, including ACI 318-83, BS 8110:1985, and AS 3600-1988, are also presented. Each aspect of the analysis and design of fully-prestressed and partially-prestressed concrete members is approached from first principles and illustrated by worked examples. The text is written for senior undergraduate and post-graduate students of civil and structural engineering and also for practising structural engineers.
