The Effect of Steel Ring Width Variations as the External Confinement on Load-Moment Interaction Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Column

Abstract:

Nowaday, we require higher capacity and ductility of structural member particulary in reinforced concret column in construction world. One way to improve the ductility and carrying capacity of concrete is confining the concrete. To investigate the effects of external confinement on column capacity, an analytical study is carried out. A steel ring external confinement is used in this study. The stress-strain diagrams design for confined concrete are developed by considering different proposed confined models based on width variations of the steel ring. The test results showed that steel ring are effective as external confinement in confining the concrete. Capability of concrete to support load simultaneously is increasing along the width of the ring. Its effect on column capacity is studied in terms of load – moment interaction diagram of column. The presence of external reinforcement expands the interaction diagram of the column particularly when it is in the compression-controlled region.
