Explore the intricate process of manufacturing pre-tensioned concrete columns used in large-scale construction projects. The process involves stretching steel tendons within the concrete before curing ...

Existing details for precast segmental columns offer minimal energy dissipation as a result of the discontinuity of longitudinal reinforcement; therefore, precast members are not used in high seismic ...

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns are a composite structural element that combines the compressive strength of concrete with the tensile strength of steel. This innovative design ...

Fundamentals of reinforced concrete theory and design. Analysis and design of beams, slabs, and columns. Concurrent familiarization with current building codes ...

Combined actions/loadings can have significant effects on the force and deformation capacity of reinforced concrete columns, resulting in unexpected large deformations and extensive damage that in ...
