Abstract:PurposeShort columns can cause serious damage when subjected to an earthquake due to their high stiffness with low ductility. These columns can be exposed to multidirectional shear forces, which encouraged this study to investigate the behavior of structural short columns under bi-directional shear.Design/methodology/approachFinite element analysis (FEA) using ABAQUS is conducted and calibrated based on experimental data tested by previous researchers who studied the uni-directional behavior of short columns s… Show more
