only 5% drift could be obtained by using more ductile detailing. It is evident that the cracks in FRC column are much smaller and more widely spread in the plastic hinge region and hence the plastic hinge could be able to rotate without lateral strength and axial load carrying capacity being compromised. It was evident that the use of steel fiber in non-ductile columns could significantly improve seismic performance of the column to the satisfactory level even compared to the column with seismic detailing.
