Effect of Flexural Ductility on Shear Capacity
The seismic performance of RC bridge piers is a significant issue because the interaction of flexural ductility and shear capacity of such piers with varied amounts of lateral reinforcement is not well established. Several relationships between flexural ductility and shear capacity have been proposed by various researchers in the past. In this paper a parametric study on RC bridge piers is conducted using a nonlinear finite element program, "Simulation of Reinforced Concrete Structures (SRCS)," developed at the University of Houston. SRCS has been previously used to predict the seismic behavior of such piers. The predicted results were compared with the test results obtained from experiments available in literature. Based on the results of the parametric study performed in this paper, a set of new relationships between flexural ductility and shear capacity of high strength RC columns is proposed.
