Abstract

Steel and concrete composite beam is a kind of composite beam which the steel and the concrete are connected by shear connectors. Now, many experts and scholars have carried out many experimental research and theoretical analysis about it. But, steel and concrete composite beams strengthened with prestressed FRP bars have not been studied. Based on the structure, the nonlinear analysis mode of steel and concrete composite beams strengthened with prestressed FRP bars is proposed, the calculating program is researched. The relationships between moment and curvature, also between load and deformation of steel and concrete composite beams strengthened with prestressed FRP bars are obtained. The results show that the moment-curvature curve and load-deformation curve of steel and concrete composite beams strengthened with prestressed FRP bars can be separated to elastic stage, elastic-plastic stage and plastic stage.
