This paper focuses on Behavior of slender column su bjected to eccentric loading. Six slender,reinforced concrete columns with slenderness ratio equals to 15;the compressive strength of the concrete were ranged from 60 to 100 MPa. Slender co lumn were subjected to eccentric axial load with load-eccentricity:depth ratio of 0.15. Three columns were reinforced with six bars having a nominal strength of 415 MPa and other three were re inforced with same number of bars having strength equals to 500 MPa with longitudinal steel ratio equals to 4%. The test results were compared with the values predicted using IS 456-200 0. These test,enabled the provision for slender columns in the code to be checked against e xperimental values,have indicated that IS 456-2000 are very safe and uneconomical design docu ment for HPC slender column.
