Analysis and Prospect of Size Effect on Normal Section Bearing Capacity of Reinforced Concrete Column

Abstract:

With the development of modern constructional technique, more attention on the size effect is paid by academics and engineers. The normal section bearing capacity of Reinforced Concrete Column is analyzed by eccentrically compressed theory firstly. The size effect on normal section bearing capacity of reinforced concrete column is obtained by theoretical analysis and experimental summary. The size effect formula of concrete compressive strength is proposed. Finally, a research thinking of size effect on bearing capacity is suggested.
