Which consequence commonly results when inadequately spaced ties exist in reinforced concrete columns under compression?

A)Premature rebar buckling occurs
B)Concrete spalling is suppressed
C)Increased ductility is witnessed
D)Compression capacity is enhanced

💡 Explanation

Premature rebar buckling occurs because inadequate tie spacing reduces lateral support, therefore the rebar buckles outward under compression rather than remaining stable and contributing to load-bearing capacity. Concrete spalling is exacerbated by the rebar buckling.
