Code requirements for column confinement with a view on drift
Dawson, Max; Rodgers, Joshua; Skillen, Kinsey; Pujol, Santiago (2022-04-27)Confinement provided by transverse reinforcement plays an essential role in reinforced concrete columns. When proportioned judiciously, confinement provides longitudinal bar restraint, contributes to shear resistance, and ... -
Deformability of lap splices in RC structural walls
Kerby, Charles; Pujol, Santiago (2023-04-19)Severe structural damage associated with lap splices located near the foundation of reinforced concrete (RC) structural walls has been recorded in the field after recent major earthquakes in Chile, New Zealand, and Taiwan. ... -
Investigating the effect of stiffness on the seismic performance of RC structures
Pledger, Liam; Pujol, Santiago; Chandramohan, Reagan (2023-04-19)This study investigates the correlation between stiffness and the seismic performance of RC structures. Structural performance was compared for buildings affected by four different earthquakes, Tokachi-Oki (1968), Chile ... -
Retrofit and Repair of Reinforced Concrete Columns with Active Confinement
Rincon Gil, Julian; Pujol, Santiago (2023-04-19)There are too many reinforced concrete (RC) columns built before the 1970s without sufficient transverse reinforcement. Past earthquakes have demonstrated the vulnerability of such columns and the need for their retrofit. ...
