Concrete creep has become one of the major problems that threatens concrete structural
development and construction. However, a reasonable and accurate calculation model for …

This paper carries out experimental and numerical investigations on the axial performance
of circular Reinforced Concrete (RC) precast slender columns with an intermediate …

Many prestressed concrete bridges are reported to suffer from excessive vertical deflections
and cracking during their service life. Creep softens the structure significantly, and therefore …

ABSTRACT A mathematical model is developed, which considers creep at the nonlinear
range of stresses, shrinkage, aging, cracking, and the geometric nonlinearity in reinforced …

An eccentrically loaded slender prestressed concrete column is characterized by P-delta
effects resulting from the development of lateral deflections with the applied axial loads …

Slender reinforced concrete column may fail in material failure or instability failure. Instability
failure is a common problem which cannot be analyzed with first‐order analysis. So, second …

One-and two-dimensional linear and nonlinear creep models for predicting the time-
dependent behavior of a concrete composite under compression are proposed. These …

Geometric and material nonlinearities inherent in slender reinforced concrete (RC) columns
have often limited the accuracy of stability models in determining the deformational …

Purpose This paper aims to obtain a calculation method by hand without iteration.
Design/methodology/approach This paper adopts strains as known quantities to solve the …

In this paper, a computational tool was developed to optimize the design of slender
reinforced concrete columns subjected to biaxial bending considering the material and …
