EFFECTS OF PASSIVE CONFINEMENT ON FATIGUE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE

The effects of passive confinement on the fatigue properties of concrete were investigated by conducting compression tests on spirally reinforced cylindrical specimens. Results show that lateral confinement increases the fatigue properties, and the classical Aas-Jakobsen S-N equation is modified to include the effects of passive confinement. (A)
