Effect of Volume Tie Ratio in the Engineered Cementitious Composites Plastic Hinges on the Seismic Performance of RC Composite Bridge Columns

The feasibility that the transverse reinforcements in steel-reinforced Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) columns could be reduced or even totally eliminated has been experimentally demonstrated. However, due to the effect of the tie volume ratio in ECC plastic hinges on the seismic performanc...
