1. Tri-axial compression can improve the strength and the deformability of concrete. 2. Load carrying capacity of RC columns increase with the increasing of slenderness ratio. 3. Design equations for the shear strength of members are developed based on the diagonal compression failure. 4. Due to the creep in reinforcement concrete column, the stress in longitudinal bar increases while the stress in concrete decreases. 5. In larger eccentrically loaded column, the concrete crushes at the compression zone and the steel bars at the tension zone yield.
