Two specimen series [limited seismic (LS) and nonseismic (NS)] were subjected to quasistatic loadings to evaluate the residual axial capacity of blast-damaged reinforced concrete (RC) columns. A validated numerical model was used to predict the residual lateral deflection of RC columns subjected to...
