Abstract:
Considering the very large number of circular concrete columns used to support buildings and bridges and the critical importance of ensuring that the shear strength of these members is sufficient to survive a possible earthquake, relatively few studies have been conducted on the shear strength of circular reinforced concrete columns. This paper summarizes the results of three experimental investigations in which a total of I.5 large circular specimens were tested in shear. The paper also explains how analytical models based on the modified compression field theory can be used to predict the shear response of circular reinforced concrete columns.

In this paper recent earthquakes in Turkey are briefly discussed. Large-scale seismic rehabilitation projects carried out by the Middle East Technical University faculty and staff on moderately damaged R/C buildings are summarized. Research at METU related to seismic rehabilitation is presented, emphasizing infilled frames, a system extensively used in Turkey.

The approach for seismic evaluation and guidelines for seismic retrofit in the Canadian Highway Bridge Design code are presented. A number of common seismic deficiencies found in bridge structures are discussed. The reversed cyclic loading behavior of columns with lap splices at their bases, outrigger beam-column connections and columns with hinges at their bases are discussed. Methods suitable for retrofit of a number these deficiencies are described. The responses of these elements after these retrofit strategies had been carried out are also presented.
