High-Strength Concrete Columns: State of the Art
Also Known As:
ACI 441R-96 is a standard that provides a comprehensive overview of the behavior of high-strength concrete (HSC) columns. The main purpose of this standard is to present the state of the art knowledge in relation to HSC columns, including their design, construction, and performance.
The standard reviews the various research studies, experimental investigations, and design methodologies related to HSC columns. It covers topics such as material properties, column behavior and failure mechanisms, design considerations, construction practices, and testing methods.
ACI 441R-96 emphasizes the importance of understanding the unique characteristics and behavior of HSC columns, which differ from those of conventional concrete columns. It provides guidance on how to effectively design and construct HSC columns to achieve the desired structural performance and durability.
