.Abstract
: This investigates the behavior of ferro-cement encased square reinforced concrete (RC) column subjected to monotonically increasing the small eccentric load or axially. Three different types of square jacketing techniques have been studied experimentally to find out the effectiveness of ferro-cement confinement of RC columns against eccentric loading. Six scaled down ferro-cement jacketed specimens (two from each group) and two non jacketed scale down specimens (square column) were tested for this purpose. The result obtained from this study show that the benchmark specimens (column without firrocement encasement) fail with non ductile mode of failure when the load reaches to its peak value, however incase of jacketed specimens load carrying capacity and ductility performance are obtained to be more than those obtained from bench mark specimen.
