Stainless Steel Rebar for Seismic Applications

  • Conference paper
Advances in Engineering Structures, Mechanics & Construction

Part of the book series: Solid Mechanics and Its Applications ((SMIA,volume 140))

Abstract

This paper is meant to present themechanical characteristics of austenitic stainless steel rebars under monotonic and cyclic loadings. Furthermore, some results concerning the experimental tests on column prototypes subjected to cyclic loadings are presented, with the intent of comparing with results obtained on analogous columns reinforced with standard high ductile carbon steel rebars.
