ACI SP-293:2013 PDF Download

ACI SP-293:2013 is a collection of 10 papers that discuss the design and application of high strength concrete and steel reinforcement in reinforced concrete columns. This standard includes research studies and practical examples of the use of high strength materials in recent projects. The papers cover a range of topics such as the design considerations for high rise buildings, seismic confinement of columns, numerical estimation of seismic response, confinement with spirals, stress block parameters, seismic fragility assessment, blast behavior, behavior under small biaxial eccentricity and strengthened by FRP laminates, residual lateral load capacity after fire damage, and shear behavior under low axial load. This standard provides valuable insights and guidance on the use of high strength materials in reinforced concrete columns.
