STRESS DISTRIBUTION OF SHORT REINFORCED CONCRETE COLUMNS LOADED UNDER SMALL ECCENTRICITIES
Abstract:
The stress distribution of short Reinforced Concrete Columns was investigated via a study of their Load-strain relationship. The Principal variables under investigation were Hoop type and Hoop spacing. A total of twenty columns were tested; middle points of the columns, Modes of failure and ultimate loads were noted. The results show that strains are greater at the two ends are minimum in the middle of the columns. Also, the presence of closely spaced ties show an enhancement of ductility whereas the two Hoop types considered (Diamond shaped Hoops and Starshaped Hoops) provide an increment of the same order to the load carrying capacity
