The advancement of material technology and production has led to higher grades of concrete strengths. These concretes can be produced using conventional production procedures. The use of high-strength concrete is becoming popular in the USA and other countries. The reduced member sizes obtained through the use of high-strength concrete will develop reduced inertial loads under seismic excitation. Strength and ductility are the most important design considerations for a structure to behave satisfactorily under these conditions. These aspects relevant to high-strength concrete members are summarized in the paper.","PeriodicalId":208613,"journal":{"name":"SP-176: High-Strength Concrete in Seismic Regions","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121073983","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The criteria for development lengths for straight reinforcement (with specific surface deformations) and those for bars terminated with hooks are largely based on recent studies of Sozen and Moehle and ACI 318: 1989.

Also, longitudinal reinforcement with a characteristic yield strength of up to 500 MPa is allowed, and for transverse reinforcement in strength calculations a useable steel stress of up to 500 MPa for shear strength and 800 <Pa for confinement is permitted. For concrete with a concrete compressive cylinder strength greater than 55 MPa the parameters for the equivalent rectangular compressive stress block have been modified to rake into account the stress-strain characteristics of high strength concrete. Also, new design equations for confining reinforcement have been included to better account for the affect of the variation of axial load level. Simulated seismic load tests have been conducted in New Zealand to investigate the behavior of high strength concrete columns confined with normal and very high strength transverse reinforcement. These tests demonstrated that the yield strength of very high strength confining reinforcement may not be attained at the stage when the column reaches the peak flexural strength and that the thickness of concrete cover has an important influence on the behavior of columns.","PeriodicalId":208613,"journal":{"name":"SP-176: High-Strength Concrete in Seismic Regions","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123634758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They were classified to three groups: research on bond capacity with splitting of surrounding concrete, bond deterioration of bars passing through beam-column joints and anchorage capacity of hooked bars in beam-column joints. A characteristic property of low tensile strength relative to the high compressive strength results in a small increase of bond and anchorage capacity if the failure mode is governed by concrete splitting. Transverse reinforcement is more important for high strength concrete. The effect of concrete strength is more for the bond which failed in concrete crushing or direct shearing at the interface, such as the bar passing through the joint. High compressive strength and high rigidity of stress-strain curve make the local bond-slip curve stiffer. Low sedimentation and low bleeding effects make the top bar effect small. By analyzing available research, bond and anchorage capacities were evaluated quantitatively for practical design use.","PeriodicalId":208613,"journal":{"name":"SP-176: High-Strength Concrete in Seismic Regions","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131329499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Analytical studies of building systems utilizing slender walls indicate that there is not a significant advantage associated with the use of high-strength concrete walls and that this advantage tends to diminish with increasing concrete strength.
