The Uniaxial Stress-Strain Relationship of Spirally Confined Concrete

This paper presents an analytical method of ascertaining the uniaxial stress-strain relationship of spirally confined concrete. Concrete confined by two interlocking spirals is also studied, using a finite element model to determine the magnification factors caused by multiple confinement. Predictions for the behavior of compression specimens with various kinds of reinforcement are given. The paper also presents methods of discerning the behavior of concrete in the compression zone of beams in flexure, which are subjected to strains that vary through the depth.
