Summary ObservationsHeaded Bars in Beam-Column Joints

Required Embedment Length Kansas Study: ld = 0.60 ldh Texas Study: ld = (0.60 - 0.70) ldh UCLA/Clarkson Large-Scale Study: ld = 0.82 ldh Other Design Requirements Flexural Strength Ratio: Mcolumn /Mbeam > 1.2 Joint Shear Emdedded Bars Must Be Shoved To Back of Joint Practical Recommendation for Emdedment ld = 0.75 ldh

CONCLUSIONSBeam-Column Joint Tests

– Six Specimens (3 Exterior, 3 Roof)– Small Cover/Need for Transverse Steel– Push-Out of Compression Bars

ACI Committee 352 Draft Report– Modified to Allow Use of Headed Bars

Research Needs - Cyclic Loading– Cover/Transverse Reinforcement– Multiple Layers of Reinforcement
