Conventional steel tied reinforcement may not provide superior confinement for reinforced cement concrete columns (RCC). Based on different experimental observations and theoretical literature review many materials like FRP, WWF etc. were used as reinforcements to increase the load bearing capacity and ductility of the structural members. So, one such material welded wire mesh (WWM) we have used in this project work in order to improve the confinement and ductility. This whole project aims to define how confinement and improvement in confinement will help compression members (Circular column) to increase their ductility. So, we used a welded wire mesh in addition to the previous reinforcement. Sample used were categorized in two categories, samples confined using conventional methods and others with improved confinement.
