Review on Seismic Behavior of RC Columns

Abstract:

Column is the key member of the seismic structures, after the earthquake destroyed, not only cause column serious economic damage, and will cause a large number of casualties. For studying the seismic behavior and size effect of full-scale reinforced concrete columns. A comprehensive summary of the experimental results is undertaken to evaluate the seismic behavior of RC concrete columns, including test equipment and load method and mode of failure and Seismic behavior. It is concluded that the ductility and shear capacity of RC mainly depends on shear span ratio, axial load ratio and stirrup ratio. But the seismic behavior of large scale RC columns has no systematic studied.
