Description
Corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete structures is a widespread issue that significantly impacts the structural integrity and performance of these elements, particularly under seismic loading. This study investigates the seismic behavior of corroded reinforced concrete (RC) columns .The main objective is to assess the effects of corrosion-induced deterioration on the column’s load-carrying capacity, stiffness, energy dissipation, and failure modes under seismic conditions. The study aims to contribute to the understanding of the vulnerability of corroded RC columns to seismic loading, providing valuable information for structural engineers and researchers in designing retrofit strategies and assessing the safety of existing corroded structures. The findings underscore the importance of considering corrosion effects in seismic design codes and guidelines, ultimately promoting more resilient and sustainable infrastructure in corrosion-prone regions.
