Abstract: The hollow-core fiber-reinforced polymer-concrete-steel (HC-FCS) column is a relatively new structural system consisting of an outer fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tube, an inner steel tube, and a concrete shell encased ...

Abstract: Precast segmental construction technique is an excellent candidate for economic rapid bridge construction in highly congested urban environments and environmentally sensitive regions. This paper presents the seismic behavior ...

Abstract: The cyclic behavior of eight 0.4-scale reinforced concrete column specimens is investigated. The columns incorporated deficient design details to simulate bridge columns built in Washington State prior to 1971. Two columns ...
