The prediction of column survival can be deduced from moment-curvature curves of the column section. An analytical approach is incorporated into a computer model. The computer program is based on assumed stress-strain relations for confined and unconfined concrete, nonprestressed and prestressing steel. The results of studies on reinforced and prestressed concrete columns indicate that reinforced concrete columns may be designed to resist earthquakes, while prestressed concrete columns may not. The initial reduction in moment capacity, after concrete cover spalling, of a prestressed concrete column could be as much as 50%. Analyses indicate that the bond between concrete and prestressing strand after concrete cover spalling is not critical.Item A theoretical design comparison of a structural frame in prestressed and conventional reinforced concrete(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Engineering, 1956) Teoman, MeteItem The effect of prestress on concrete durability(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Engineering, 1965) Gonsior, Michael J.
