Extensive　research　has　been　performed　on　the　tensile　properties　of　carbon　fibre-reinforced　polymer　(CFRP)　material　used　in　both　standalone　and　rehabilitation　applications.　Limited　knowledge　and　design　guidelines　exist　on　the　flexural　behaviour　of　CFRP　cable　strands　(herein　strand)　and　reinforcing　bars.　This　knowledge　gap　hinders　the　widespread　use　of　strands　and　CFRP　bars　in　prestressed　structures　and　restricts　their　market　share　compared　to　reinforcing　steel　members.　To　address　this　gap,　this　study　investigates　the　flexural　behaviour　of　CFRP　strands　and　reinforcing　bars　using　a　combination　of　experimental　and　numerical　methods.　A　standard　three-point　bending　test　is　employed　to　measure　the　flexural　strength　and　ultimate　curvature　radius　of　strands　and　bars.　The　experimental　study　included　strands　of　diameters　10.2　mm　and　15.2　mm,　and　CFRP　bars　of　diameters　9　mm,　12　mm,　and　14　mm.　Finite　element　analysis　has　been　conducted　to　further　investigate　the　flexural　performance　and　failure　mechanisms　of　the　specimens.　The　test　results　indicate　that　the　ultimate　bending　radius　of　the　strands　is　approximately　one-half　of　that　of　the　bar,　while　their　ultimate　bending　strength　surpasses　the　bars　by　at　least　10　%.　Optimal　lay　lengths　for　the　10.2　mm　and　15.2　mm　cable　strands　are　proposed　based　on　the　simulation　results.
