Double-cavities steel-concrete composite short-columns with recycled concrete: Mechanical behavior and load-bearing capacity
Abstract
• A novel double-cavities steel–concrete column with recycled concrete is proposed. • Axial and eccentric tests reveal effects of cavity design and load eccentricity. • Double-cavity confinement enhances strength, stiffness, and ductility. • A simplified bearing capacity formula shows
