Optimal Design of Seismic Resistant RC Columns. [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials (Basel), 2020
Although the author is well aware that it is nothing special, presented here is the method that he uses to design the columns of a seismic resistant reinforced concrete structure, in hopes that this could be of use to someone. The method, which is directed at satisfying the capacity design requirements without excessively large sections, consists of ...
