An investigation of the flexural behaviour of large-span prestressed and steel-reinforced concrete slabs.

ABSTRACT: The prestressed and steel-reinforced concrete slab (PSRCS) is an innovative composite structural member offering high load capacity and stiffness and exceptional anti-crack performance, making it a leading trend in composite structures. This paper presents the derived calculation formulas for bearing capacity, section stiffness, mid-span deflection of PSRCS. Additionally, a numerical analysis of PSRCS is conducted using ABAQUS software, with several models created to systematically investigate bearing capacity, section stiffness, anti-crack performance, and failure mode. Concurrently, PSRCS member parameters are analyzed for optimal design, and the results of finite element (FE) calculations are compared with theoretical formula calculations. The results demonstrate that PSRCS exhibits sup
