Post-Tensioned Prestressed Masonry Columns
The performance of post-tensioned prestressed masonry under bending moment and shear force at both serviceability and ultimate limit states is now well established. Performance under axial load, however, is not fully understood. This paper puts forward a theoretical model, which describes the behaviour of post-tensioned masonry columns and compares this with the results of tests on brick masonry columns post-tensioned with high tensile steel bar tendons. The paper considers the action of laterally restrained and laterally unrestrained tendons placed both concentrically and eccentrically and with different levels of prestress.
