Abstract:This paper investigates the load capacity and failure modes of slender hollow RC column under axial and eccentric loads. For the slender hollow columns, different load eccentricities and hole shapes are used. The finite element software ABAQUS is used to model and analyze the columns. The experimental test result is used to conduct a verification investigation of the nonlinear finite element modeling. All specifications of the experimentally tested columns are taken into consideration in the modeling to establ… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
