Shear Mechanism of Precast Segmental Concrete Beam Prestressed with Unbonded Tendons by Wu-Tong Yan, Lei Yuan, Yong-Hua Su, Zi-Wei Song

“…With the observed failure modes, the truss–arch model is employed to clarify the shear mechanism of PSCBs, and simplified equations are further developed for predicting the shear strength. Using the collected test results of 30 specimens, the validity of the proposed equations is verified with a mean ratio of calculated-to-test values of 0.96 and a standard deviation of 0.11. …”
