Abstract

The test results on deformation and rigidity of short compressed reinforced concrete pillars with various types of external transverse and longitudinal composite reinforcement are given. The samples from heavy concrete with design strength class B30-35 were tested, having the same cross-section 250x125 (h) mm and length 1200mm with flexibility λh = 10. The pillars were reinforced with 4Ø12A500 in the longitudinal direction and with tied clamps Ø6B500, installed with the step of 180 mm - in the transverse direction. The purpose of the experiment was to determine the effect of the rigidity of reinforced elements on the deformability of short experimental samples. It was necessary to determine how the eccentricity of the load application influences on the variation in the rigidity of the reinforced elements. The purpose was also to obtain data on the deformability of pillars loaded with small eccentricities, i.e. when e0 = 0.16h. It was found that the most effective type for short pillars reinforcement is a three-layer holder, which has maximum rigidity and minimal deformability. However, its efficiency gradually decreases when the eccentricity of the load application increases.
