The bearing strength of pin-loaded woven glass-fibre reinforced epoxy composites was investigated. As an alternative to the hole-drilling procedure, a novel composite manufacturing technique has been implemented for pin-hole creation. The bearing performance of composite joints manufactured using both techniques was compared. Specimen with various edge- distances to pin-hole diameter ratios (e/d) and, width to pin-hole diameter ratios (w/d) were tested. It was observed that composite joints manufactured using the novel technique sustained more load compared to the joints manufactured by the hole-drilling procedure. Geometrical parameters were found to be effective on failure modes, bearing strength and magnitude of sustained load.

Concrete-filled tubular (CFT) columns have been widely used as structural members because CFT columns synergize the advantages of steel and concrete resulting in high strength, high ductility, and large energy dissipation capacity. Numerous studies have been performed to understand the behavior of CFT columns. However, the behavior of CFT columns remains uncertain due to their inelastic behavior and uncertain confinement effects, especially when failure occurs. In addition, diaphragms, which are generally installed, make it more complicated to understand the behavior of CFT columns. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the diaphragms on the failure behavior of the CFT columns. To this end, eighteen rectangular CFT columns were tested with five different loading cases. The experimental results suggest that the size of the diaphragm has significant effects on the compressive strength and toughness of the CFT columns. In order to facilitate the proper composite actions of steel and concrete, the size of a diaphragm has to be at least three-quarters of the cross-sectional area.
