Tests of concrete bridge columns with interlocking spiral reinforcement
GC Buckingham, DI McLean, CE Nelson - Transportation Research …, 1993 - trid.trb.org
The behavior of concrete bridge columns incorporating interlocking spirals under flexural,
shear, and torsional loadings was investigated experimentally. Tests were performed on
approximately 1/5-scale column specimens subjected to increasing levels of cycled inelastic
displacements under constant axial load. Rectangular and oval cross sections with either
two interlocking spirals or conventional ties were investigated. Variables studied included
the performance of interlocking spirals compared to ties, the amount of spiral overlap, and …
