The T-cap structure of Pultruded Rod Stitched Efficient Unitized Structure (PRSEUS) is investigated using advanced finite element modeling techniques. The study focuses on developing a comprehensive methodology to capture the damage response of T-cap structures under loading conditions. Computational results are validated using benchmark experimental data.
