Abstract

The buckling behavior of slender High-Strength Concrete (HSC) columns under axial load  with different end eccentricities has been studied experimentally. The results of these tests  have been used to examine the applicability of the design requirements of Normal Strength Concrete (NSC) columns of the Eurocode 2 (EC-2), the Egyptian code (ECC-9S)  and ACI  318-99 building code, when applied to slender HSC columns with a characteristic  compressive strength of 85 MPa. The program included tests of22 columns with slenderness  ratios λ1 ranged between 17.3 and 69.3. The main parameters examined in this study were  the values of end eccentricity of the applied axial load (e/t=O.3, 0045 and 0.90), the  transverse reinforcement ratio (p < sub>v) and the longitudinal reinforcement ratio (Pt ). The results  of this experimental work showed that, slender columns constructed with HSC increased the  ultimate load of the tested columns in comparison with the same columns constructed with  NSC. The Model Column method. used by EC·2 and also the Moment Magnifier method used by ACl 318-99 building code for the design of HSC slender columns showed to be  conservative for r design of HSC slender columns. The slenderness ratio limit between short  and long columns required by the ECC-95 need to be modified when applied for HSC  columns. Based on the results or these tests. the second order effect should be taken into  account for HSC columns when λ1> 40 (λb> 12 ).
