Abstract: |
An experimental investigation conducted on ultra-high performance fibre reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) columns is presented in this paper. The columns consisted of longitudinal and transverse reinforcement, tested under concentric and eccentric compressive loads with varying load eccentricities. The UHPFRC manufactured with locally available raw materials attained compressive strengths of 140 to 160MPa. The experimental data of axial load with lateral and axial deformations, mode of failure was obtained for each test. The cover spalling was not observed for all the columns. The interaction diagram of axial load-bending moment is established for compression members and is in good agreement with the test results. |
