Structural behaviour of high-strength concrete column confined with steel strapping tensioning technique subjected to constant axial and lateral cyclic loads

Ductility is the main consideration in designing reinforced concrete (RC) structures. The application of high-strength concrete (HSC) in columns is able to reduce the column sizes and optimize the floor area of a building. Besides, reduction in building self-weight can minimise the seismic load acti...

Civil engineering (General) Ductility is the main consideration in designing reinforced concrete (RC) structures.

A series of experimental work consisted often specimens with concrete compressive strength of 35 MPa, 55 MPa and 85 MPa were carried out. The first series of five specimens with 55 MPa were tested with different spac ing of steel strapping confinement.
