Which risk increases when reinforced concrete column experiences sustained eccentric axial loading?

💡 Explanation

When a reinforced concrete column experiences sustained eccentric axial loading, amplified bending moments occur due to initial deflection that increases over time, causing progressive concrete spalling and cracking. Therefore, spalling results, rather than shear failure, corrosion, or compressive strength reduction whose mechanisms are different load cases.
