Influence of the Cross-Sectional Shape and Corner Radius on the Compressive Behaviour of Concrete Columns Confined by FRP and Stirrups
Axial compression tests were carried out on 72 FRP (fiber reinforced polymer)–stirrup composite-confined concrete columns. Stirrups ensure the residual bearing capacity and ductility after the FRP fractures. To reduce the effect of stress concentration at the corners of the confined square-section c...
