Abstract: This paper presents a numerical finite element model simulating the behaviour of high-strength fibre reinforced concrete columns under monotonic eccentric loading. The results of the numerical model in this study show very good agreement with the experimental part of the investigation which was presented previously in a separate paper. In addition to the ultimate capacity, lateral deflection and axial shortening are taken into consideration in the finite element model.

Keywords: columns; eccentric loading; high-strength concrete; HSC; fibre reinforced concrete; finite element analysis.
