Tie-confined fibre-reinforced high-strength concrete short columns
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An experimental study was carried out to investigate the behaviour of steel fibre-reinforced high-strength concrete (HSC) short columns confined by square ties under monotonically increasing concentric compression. A total of 72 confined and 24 unconfined specimens were tested in this test programme. The test variables included aspect ratio and volume fraction of crimped steel fibres, volumetric ratio, yield strength and configuration of transverse tie reinforcement and concrete strength. The effects of these variables on the uniaxial behaviour of HSC short columns are presented and discussed. The results indicate that the addition of fibres to the HSC mix prevented the early spalling of the cover and increased the load-carrying capacity and ductility of the specimens over that of comparable non-fibre columns. The effect of mixed aspect ratio of fibres on the stress–strain behaviour of confined HSC was also studied by blending the short and long fibres. It is shown that a higher gain in column strength can be affected by the addition of shorter fibres, and longer fibres can provide better enhancements in the post-peak deformability.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
