Abstract
After calibrating and validating the above strategy in the case of non preloaded elements, the compressive behavior in the presence of preload is analyzed numerically and compared with experimental results to evaluate the reliability of the FE model approach proposed. Through the paper, the procedure for the definition of the law to fix the hardening/softening parameters of the concrete is described.
