Determinación analítica de la capacidad de deformación lateral en columnas de hormigón armado sometidas a carga axial y lateral

Abstract

The seismic damage observed is severe in reinforced concrete columns. Moehle's methodology was applied to determine the lateral deformation capacity of columns under axial and lateral loading. These columns were experimentally tested under a protocol of lateral displacements and constant axial loading, whose behavior is at bending. The estimation of resistance capacity was more accurate than for lateral deformation, because concrete confinement was not considered.
