Preliminary Experimental Study of the Seismic Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Column with Distributed-Steel Bar

Abstract:

A distributed–Steel Bar Reinforced Concrete (DSBRC) column was tested, a construction technique for composite steel and concrete material which can alleviate the difficulty for the arrangement of the stirrup in the column and the longitudinal reinforcement in the beam. An ordinary steel Reinforced Concrete (SRC) column was also tested for comparison. The specimens were subjected to quasi-static load reversals to model the earthquake effect. The hysteresis curve, resistance recession, skeleton curves and ductility ratio of columns were obtained. The experimental results present good seismic behavior of DSBRC column under cyclic loading as the square cross-section SRC column. Therefore it would be a good substitute of SRC column in civil engineering.
