Abstract
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the mechanical behavior of textile-reinforced concrete (TRC)-strengthened concrete columns
with small eccentricity under chloride-wet-dry cycles.
Design/methodology/approach – A total of ten reinforced concrete (RC) columns were constructed and subjected to eccentric compression, and
the effects of the slenderness ratio, a variable number of wet-dry cycles and the coupled effect of loading and a chloride environment were analyzed.
One of the columns tested was unreinforced, whereas the remaining columns were strengthened laterally with TRC.
Findings – The results showed that a reduction in the slenderness ratio was conducive to the improvement of the bearing capacity of the reinforced
column; however, the reinforcement effect of TRC tended to decrease with an increasing number of wet-dry cycles, and the coupled effect of loading

All reinforced columns were rounded to a radius of 20 mm. Before
the application of the reinforcement layers, the test portion of the
RC columns was chiseled. The steps to apply TRC were as follows:
First, wet the surface of the column.
Second, apply the matrix material (fine-grained concrete)

Third, lay textile on the fine-grained around the column

damage to the TRC became more serious when the sustained

was reduced, resulting in a significant decrease in the bearing
capacity. This was because the sustained load produced fine
cracks on the surface of the TRC. When the load was small, the
amount of intrusion of chloride ions was small, and there was
less damage to the reinforcement layer. Both the amount and
width of the fine cracks increased with increases in the
sustained load ratio, causing the damage to the TRC and the
columns to become more serious. Previous research results
