An analytical study to predict the tension force of stirrups in concrete beams that are longitudinally reinforced with Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) bars was carried out. Modified Compression Field Theory (MCFT) was applied in this study and a computer program was developed to facilitate the calculation process. The analytical results were compared with empirical formula and test data adopted from experimental study. Three concrete beams longitudinally reinforced with CFRP bars and transversely reinforced with steel bars were tested. Stirrups spacing was used as test variable. The beams were tested until failure and strains on the stirrups measured. The comparison between test results and the MCFT results shows that MCFT predicts the growth of tension force in stirrups well.
