Design interaction diagrams, Pr–Mr, for rectangular reinforced concrete sections under combined bending and axial compression or tension forces in accordance with the current Canadian code are presented. The interest of the note is that the interaction diagrams eliminate the limitations of those in the Canadian Portland Cement Association Handbook. Their format can be extended to other section shapes and reinforcement layouts. Key words: Combined bending, design aids, interaction diagrams, rectangular sections, reinforced concrete, short columns, strength analysis.

Based on experimental researches, a simple numerical analysis method was presented to simulate the full load-deformation process of bar-reinforced concrete filled steel tubular short columns subjected to axial compression. Firstly, the interaction process of steel tube and concrete was analyzed, and then, the simplified constitutive models of steel tube and concrete were established on the base of previous analysis results. Secondly, the relation between lateral and longitudinal strain of steel tube was analyzed based on experimental results, and a simple method was presented to calculate the lateral strain of steel tube. Finally, a program was worked out to simulate the full load-deformation process of bar-reinforced concrete filled steel tubular short columns. The program’s simulation results of both ultimate bearing capacity and load-deformation curves are in good agreement with the experimental results.

t is essential to study the performance of reinforced concrete short column. In this paper, the main reinforcements and hoopings in short columns were replaced by C-BAR reinforcements, the regularity of reinforcing bar replaced by C-BAR reinforcements was summarized. The results show that the axial compression bearing capacity of concrete short column is increased.

Abstract Carbonation has been a concern of constructors and researchers because, by lowering the pH of the interstitial solution of the concrete, it can favor the post-deposition and subsequent corrosion of reinforced concrete reinforcement. Among the factors that influence carbonation is the use of pozzolanic materials, such as metakaolin. However, there is no consensus as to the positive or negative contribution of these additions. This work evaluated the influence of metakaolin on the mechanical properties, porosity and in particular on the carbonation of concrete, from the addition of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% of metakaolin, in relation to the cement mass. From the results, it was observed that the addition of metakaolin, while not significantly influencing the porosity, gave the concrete a greater resistance to axial compression, a decrease in the capillary absorption and delayed the advance of the carbonation front in the concrete.

The paper presents the experimental studies of reinforced concrete column (RC column) capacity affected by core drilling. By testing three groups (9 total) of full scale concrete short columns, the experiment demonstrates that the axial compression capacity of RC columns after core drilling is reduced from 5.63% to 22.14% while the ultimate displacement decreases from 1.88% to 26.14%. The behavior of columns is altered from the axial compression failure to a small-eccentricity compression failure. The paper summarizes experiment results, followed by an investigation of the dominant factors, such as column effective cross section, drilling location, drilled hole repairing and reinforcing steels discontinued by drilling, that have impact on RC column capacity. The rationale of capacity variations of RC columns due to core drilling is also investigated.
