An analytical method, by which hysteretic restoring force characteristics of unbonded prestressed concrete framed structure can be statically pursued on the basis of material properties, is presented. The bond-slip relationship between concrete and prestressing tendon is taken into account, and thus the method covers unbonded members and bonded members. For verifying the propriety of the analytical method, the experiment is carried out on a portal frame with an unbonded prestressed concrete beam of 4.2 m in length and reinforced concrete columns of 1 m in height. High intensity reversed cyclic lateral loading is applied. The experimental results show a good agreement with the analytical ones in terms of load-deflection relation and the fluctuation of the tendon stress at anchorage end.

In order to meet demanding of non-magnetic, changing the reinforcement ratio, the degree of prestress and cross section form, four partially prestressed concrete beam (3 T shape section, 1 rectangle section) were made with CFRP as longitudinal reinforcement and stirrup. The results show that: the pure bending sections of the test beams conform the plane-section assumption; the beams with bigger rate of reinforcement or with stronger prestress tends to appear more cracks with smaller spacing and width, also their cracking load were higher with relatively lesser deflection. The cracking load and ultimate load of T-shape beam are slightly larger than the rectangular beam’s, but their deflections are similar nearly. Based on experimental research, nonlinear finite element analysis software ANSYS was utilized to establish the model, the results of numerical simulation and experiments showed good agreement.

The channel steel connectors of novel prefabricated prestressed concrete beam play an extremely important role in structures. They act as the connectors of prefabricated beams and columns and support the prefabricated beams temporarily at construction stage, work as shear connectors of the adjoining faces between the old and new concrete at using stage. But they are easy to be bond slip failure for its complicated stress states. To analyze their mechanical behavior and failure mode, the interaction between concrete and channel steels is considered by adopting the spring unit and nonlinear analysis with finite element software ANSYS. The results indicate that the channel steel connectors of novel prefabricated prestressed concrete beam are effective in bearing various loading effects and meet the requirements of prefabricated structures.
