Abstract

Many frame structures were damaged for the column hinge mechanism in the Wenchuan earthquake because of the biaxial seismic action. Four reinforced concrete columns with corner focus longitudinal bars were tested to improve the seismic behavior of RC columns subjected to multiaxial loading. The hysteretic behavior, skeleton curves and feature points were discussed. The results indicate that the method can improve seismic behavior of RC columns
