Short reinforced concrete (RC) column with spiral stirrups is an important component of civil engineering. However, the usability and durability of short RC columns are affected significantly by concrete cracking, poor adaptive deformability, low toughness and acid-base corrosion. Improving the stress performance of short RC columns is favour of normal application. Adding basalt fiber into concrete is an important method to improve the stress performance of short RC columns. Effects of basalt fiber on the axial compressive mechanical properties...
