Material tests and tests on structural members with reinforcement bars have been performed. A schematic representation of the material behavior allows a general description of the behavior of structural members in tension. The mechanical behavior for tension members and a simple model are presented.tensionbéton à hautes performances (BHP)tractionhigh performance concrete (HPC)text::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
