Popis: A lap-spliced crosstie comprises two J-shaped rebars, each with a 180° hook at one end and straight at the other end. Six large reinforced concrete columns subjected to lateral cyclic loading were tested. The results indicated the following: (1) the confining effect of horizontally lap-spliced crossties is similar to that of vertically lap-spliced crossties. (2) Splice length of the lap-spliced crossties that is smaller than the code requirement can also provide sufficient concrete confinement. (3) A method for determining required lap splice length for lap-spliced crossties is proposed. (4) The lap-spliced crosstie can considerably improve the constructability of the crossties. Furthermore, the construction quality of reinforced concrete column reinforcement and the seismic resistance capability of reinforced concrete structures can be significantly upgraded.
