Ultimate Limit State Response of Reinforced Concrete Columns for Use in Performance-Based Analysis and Design

The design of reinforced concrete structures for extreme events requires accurate predictions of the ultimate rotational capacity of critical sections, which is dictated by the failure mechanisms of shear, hoop fracture, low-cycle fatigue and longitudinal bar buckling. The purpose of this research i...
