E-Defense Experiment on the Seismic Performance of a Brige Column Built in 1970s


Abstract eng:
This paper presents a large scale shake table experiment on a reinforced concrete bridge column conducted using E-Defense in December 2007. The model was a typical column which was built in 1970s in Japan. Collapse of this type of columns was one of the major causes of the extensive damage during 1995 Kobe, Japan earthquake. Invaluable data on the failure mechanism and response of a RC bridge column was obtained.
