MODELLING OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS WITH PRETENSIONED FRP REINFORCEMENT

Traditional building materials are regularly improved, finding new operational characteristics and complementing the quality of technical parameters. For a long time and now as reinforcement of reinforced concrete elements is steel. Corrosion of steel and conductiveness, prompted researchers to improve the quality of reinforcement, as a result of which non-metallic composite reinforcement was created. Composite materials are a group of reinforcing bars that differ in the type of feedstock, consisting of two or more components.
