Abstract

In this paper, shear capacity and ductility of RC columns in the post-yield range of reinforcement are discussed for seismic resistant design. The shear failure of large scale RC column is computationally simulated for understanding the mechanism of shear collapse of bridge piers. FEM computational results on ductility are compared with the experiments and parametric study is conducted concerning factors that affect the deformability of RC columns.
