Abstract

Theoretical analyses are presented for the ultimate strength of long hinged reinforced concrete columns. Both concentric and eccentric loads are considered. The treatment of concentrically loaded columns is based on Engesser's tangent modulus formula and the treatment of eccentrically loaded columns is based on the principles advanced by von Kármán. Both analyses utilize the stress-strain relationship for concrete determined by Hognestad from tests of short eccentrically loaded columns.
The analyses are compared with the test results of six experimental investigations carried out in the past. The test data, including 48 concentrically and 79 eccentrically loaded long hinged columns and the analyses are in good agreement, thus indicating that the analyses with their basic assumptions yield reliable results.
