Ratio Limit

Axial compression ratios of L-shaped columns with different directions of neutral axis were calculated by numerical method. It can be found that the axial compression ratio reaches the minimum value when neutral axis is parallel to the section edge and the shorter limb is compressed, the section scale has little influence on the axial compression ratio of L-shaped columns. On the base of analysis, axial compression ratios of L-shaped columns with different limb lengths are given out.

Traditional reinforced concrete columns have demonstrated poor seismic performance especially in corrosive environment as the reinforcement bars experience severe corrosion under such conditions. To overcome the problem of steel corrosion, glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforced concrete columns have gained significant attention in recent years. However, the seismic performance of GFRP reinforced concrete column is not well understood yet. One of the main challenges associated with the use of GFRP bars is its brittle behavior. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the mechanical properties and failure modes of GFRP reinforced concrete structures under seismic action. In this research, the seismic behavior of GFRP reinforced concrete columns and conventional columns under different axial compression ratios are analyzed by low-cycle repeated pseudo-static loading tests. As a result, the deformation and the seismic energy dissipation capacity of GFRP reinforced concrete columns are investigated and discussed. Furthermore, the failure mechanism of GFRP bar structure is studied to provide the basis for improving the seismic design method of GFRP reinforced concrete structure and modifying the code for seismic design. In addition, the influence of axial compression ratio on the seismic behavior of full GFRP reinforced concrete columns is investigated. The results of this experiment demonstrate that with the increase of axial compression ratio, the ultimate bearing capacity of GFRP reinforced concrete columns increases, while the deformation and the cumulative energy dissipation capacity decrease.

Through earthquake simulation experiment of nine regional confined concrete columns with different axial compression ratio, the bearing capacity and seismic behavior of regional confined concrete columns were studied in this paper. Considering the ductility, stiffness, energy-dissipation performance and related factors of regional confined concrete columns under different axial compression ratio, by comparative analysis of the hysteretic behavior of the specimens, the limit of axial compression ratio of regional confined concrete columns is proposed for seismic design.

<p class="1Body">This paper was investigating the buckling problem of reinforced concrete columns considering the reinforced concrete as bi – modular material. Governing differential equations was driven. The relation between the non-dimensional transverse deflection and non-dimensional distance between centroid axis and the neutral axis "eccentricity" was drawn to enable the solution of the governing differential equation. The new approach was verified with different experimental results and different codes of practice.<strong></strong></p>

The results of an experimental program on eight short reinforced concrete columns having different structural sizes and axial compression ratios subjected to monotonic/cyclic lateral loading were reported. A 3D mesoscopic simulation method for the analysis of mechanical properties of reinforced concrete members was established, and then it was utilized as an important supplement and extension of the traditional experimental method. Lots of numerical trials, based on the restricted experimental results and the proposed 3D mesoscopic simulation method, were carried out to sufficiently evaluate the seismic performances of short reinforced concrete columns with different structural sizes and axial compression ratios. The test results indicate that (1) the failure pattern of reinforced concrete columns can be significantly affected by the shear-span ratio; (2) increasing the axial compression ratio could improve the load capacity of the reinforced concrete column, but the deformation capacity would be restricted and the failure mode would be more brittle, consequently the energy dissipation capacity could be deteriorated; and (3) the load capacity, the displacement ductility, and the energy dissipation capacity of the short reinforced concrete columns all exhibit clear size effect, namely, the size effect could significantly affect the seismic behavior of reinforced concrete columns.
