Abstract
The purpose of the work is to investigate the effect of additional bars at column ends, when column is subjected to axial load. Due to this; reduction in the axial and lateral deformations of heads of the column are examined. The experimental study examined both ends' behaviour after providing extra bar at top head and bottom head of the column and experimental values indicate that presence of extra bars in column heads decreases axial and lateral deformation in the heads. The experimental values of axial and lateral deformations were validated with the help of ANSYS software. The variation in these values with respect to percentage of steel and grade of concrete is also studied.
