Experimental Research on Ductility and Bearing Capacity of T-Shaped Columns with HRB500 Reinforcement

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to research the effect of stirrup ratio on ductility and bearing capacity of T-shaped columns with HRB500 reinforcement, three T-shaped columns with HRB500 reinforcement were tested under low cyclic loading. The damage characteristic, hysteretic curve, yield load, ultimate load, displacement ductility and curvature ductility were analyzed. It is shown that the T-shaped column with HRB500 reinforcement have excellent ductility, higher bearing capacity and better deformation behavior, which can meet the requirement of anti-seismic design. With the increase of stirrup ratio, the curvature ductility of T-shaped columns with HRB500 reinforcement increases and the hysteretic behavior improves.
