Spare Additional Confinement in Spiral Arrangements

Ioannis A. Tegos, Theodoros A. Chrysanidis

Abstract :

The research reported in this paper is directed towards the experimental determination of the stress – strain curνe of concrete confined by spiral and rectangular ties. The experimental study involved the testing of 4 cylindrical (150/300mm), 4 prismatic (150x150x300mm), 8 prismatic (150x300x300mm) and 2 cubic (300x300x300mm) specimens corresponding to different confinement provisions. From each category, two additional unreinforced specimens were constructed in order to demonstrate the improvement of the strength of the confined test specimens against the unreinforced ones. Specimens were subjected to uniaxial compression.
