Measure the temperature change of concrete-filled steel tubular with high strength low heat micro-expansive in its hardening process with different mix proportion. Study self-stress of high strength low-heat micro-expansive and study the relations of the expansive admixtures quantity and its changing regularity with the time. Observe the fail of axial compression short column of concrete-filled steel tubular with high strength expansive under vertical loading, study the changing regularity of its stress under loading.


Abstract. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the behaviour of concrete filled steel tube columns under axial compression. The steel columns were filled with self-compacting and self-curing concrete instead of normal conventional concrete. A test program consisting of square column, circular column and rectangular column was firstly conducted. The behaviour of three concrete filled steel tubular sections (CFSTs) under axial load is presented. The effect of steel tube dimensions, shapes and confinement of concrete are also examined. Measured column strengths are compared with the values predicted by Euro code 4 and American codes. Euro code 4, gives good estimation of self-compaction concrete. However, lower values as measured during the experiments were predicted by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) equation. Also, the effect of thickness of steel tubes, concrete cube strength and steel percentage is also studied. In addition to CFST column the steel tube also acts as confinement for concrete.

A comprehensive study of the shear characteristics of steel fiber reinforced recycled concrete-filled steel tube (SRCFST) columns is conducted. 50 CFST stub columns are tested with the variables of steel tube diameter-thickness ratio ( D/t), shear span-to-depth ratio (λ), axial compression ratio ( n), and concrete mix. Two types of cements, three recycled aggregate percentages, three water-cement ratios, and three steel fiber contents are considered in design of concrete mixes. The experimental results show that SRCFST columns present the coincident shear behavior of the ordinary CFST columns. As λ is increased, shear resistance shows a downtrend, while the flexural strength presents an increasing trend. Imposing axial compression or thickening steel tube contributes to an adequate safety margin in plastic period. Based on the contributions superposition method, a predicted model of the shear capacity of SRCFST columns is proposed in consideration of shear-span ratio, axial compression, and self-stress.

The study deals with the usage of perforated foam of various percentages to that of coarse aggregate to produce light weight concrete. With the day to day increase in industries and civilization’s expansion it has become very much necessary to produce structures with proficiently lesser weight. Its usage has become more proficient in construction of building in earthquake prone areas. This experimental investigation deals with the study of strength parameters of light weight concrete by performing various strength test and its various behavior s such as compression, tensile and flexure are studied by adding preformed foam at various proportions of 0%, 2%, 5%, 10%, 20% and 40%. All these strength parameter test are performed on 7th day, 14th day and 28th day respectively from day of casting
