Brandes Service and Ultimate Load Behavior of Precast-Prestressed Concrete Structures Using Recycled Concrete Aggregates 1904 .txt text/plain 154 7 37 Since most precast concrete applications use prestressing, this research specifically investigates the effects of RCA on: (1) rate of concrete strength and stiffness gain; (2) strand bond strength; (3) prestress losses; and (4) service load and ultimate load behavior of precast-prestressed concrete beams. The effects of this variability can be better controlled in precast concrete applications. cache/2227mp5183m.txt txt/2227mp5183m.txt
