Abstract:The present research reports the application of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) as an alternative to conventional concrete to improve the brittle shear behavior of short columns. Experimental and finite element investigation was conducted by testing five reinforced engineered cementitious composite (RECC) concrete columns (half-scale specimens) and one control reinforced concrete (RC) specimen for different shear-span and transverse reinforcement ratios under cyclic lateral loads. RECC specimens with … Show more
