Steel-concrete composites structures have diverse uses in engineering, due to their mechanical and seismic behavior. The mechanical behavior of concrete is linked to unconfined mechanical behavior; section form; and the kind and content of the confining material - in other words, to the construction method, and the relative size of the confining force. Concrete Composite Columns focuses on confined concrete, and establishes analytical methods for each composite column. The volume moves beyond existing resources, to study the relationship between existing composite structures and design methods for the sectional form of concrete composite structure. Chapters cover the failure criteria of concrete; confined concrete types; models including axial stress prediction, analysis oriented constitutive, and design-oriented constitutive models; the design and analysis of section form; double confined concrete; seismic behaviors of concrete composite columns; and the seismic design of concrete composite columns. This book offers a practical solution to students, researchers and engineers working with both steel and FRP confined concrete composite columns. Focuses on confined concrete, and provides analytical methods for composite columns Discusses different types of composite columns including FRP and steel-concrete composites Details confined concrete from basic theoretical analysis to seismic behavior and design methods Considers the construction method and confining forces in composite concrete columns Provides a solution to students, researchers, and engineers working with confined composite columns
