ABSTRACT
Generally, it is believed that ultimate displacement of RC member is based on strength of the member. This definition does not reflect the true deformation capacity of member. Thus, present study is carried out to quantify the effect of axial load on deformation capacity of RC column. The study provides a clear insight into the fundamental mechanism of concrete structural deformation.
