Abstract
The failure load of a continuous prestressed concrete beam depends on the extent of redistribution of moment that occurs prior to failure. Results from a parametric study, carried out using a nonlinear finite element analysis, indicate that the extent of redistribution of moment is influenced not only by the sectional properties of the support section, but also by the sectional properties of the span critical section and by the magnitude of the secondary moments.
