Abstract:Precast segmental reinforced concrete (RC) piers have been widely used in the construction of offshore bridges to speed up construction. Offshore bridges in cold regions are inevitably affected by the seawater freeze–thaw cycles under the periodic movement of tides, which could reduce the mechanical property of RC piers. Based on the low cyclic loading test on 12 specimens with different seawater freeze–thaw cycles, axial compression ratio, diameters of longitudinal reinforcement, and stirrup spacing, the hyst… Show more
