The test results of six connections under cyclic loading are presented in the paper. Each test specimen was properly designed to model the interior joint of a moment resisting frame, and was identically comprised of three parts that including the circular concrete filled steel tube columns, the reinforced concrete beams, and the short fabricated connection stubs. Energy dissipation was designed to occur in the beams during a severe earthquake. Steel bars which were embedded into concrete core and welded to the connection stubs, were used to transfer the force distributed by the reinforcing bars of concrete beam to the concrete core. The results indicated that the embedded steel bars were very efficient in eliminating the stress concentration on the tube wall and there was no visible deformation occurred on the tube wall until the collapse of the specimen. Furthermore, the connection of each specimen had enough capacity and thus the plastic hinge appeared in the beams. As results, the ductility of this new type structure directly depended on the RC beams.

Постановка задачи. Исследуется метод усиления железобетонных колонн устройством стальной обоймы с обетонированием, который позволяет восстанавливать эксплуатационные показатели колонн, имеющих значительные дефекты и повреждения. Предпосылкой настоящих исследований явилось предположение о том, что усиление стальной обоймой с обетонированием является эффективным способом повышения несущей способности железобетонных колонн, причем вариант приложения нагрузки - только на бетонное ядро или ко всему сечению - существенно на эффективность усиления не влияет. В связи с этим целью исследования является определение необходимости устройства стального оголовка и включения в работу ветвей стальной обоймы при условии обетонирования стержня колонны по всей высоте. Результаты и выводы. Рациональным признан способ передачи нагрузки только на бетонное ядро усиленных колонн, поскольку устройство оголовка стальной обоймы требует применения сложных конструктивно-технологических решений, но при этом дополнительно увеличивает несущую способность незначительно (согласно проведенным исследованиям менее чем на 10 %). Ввиду отсутствия необходимости устройства конструкций стального оголовка снижаются трудоемкость и сроки производства работ по усилению колонн. Statement of the problem. The method of strengthening reinforced concrete columns with a steel clipping and the concrete surfacing is investigated. This method allows one to repair the columns with significant defects and damage. The prerequisite for this study was the assumption of strengthening with a steel clipping and the concrete surfacing is an effective way to increase the ultimate limit state of reinforced concrete columns, furthermore, the option of applying the load (only to the concrete core or to the entire section) does not significantly affect the strengthening effectiveness. In this regard, the purpose of the investigation was to identify the need to include the steel jacketing in the work, on the condition the column is coated with concrete along with the entire height. Results and conclusions. The load transfer method only to the concrete core of the strengthened columns is recognized as rational since the device of the steel clipping head requires the use of complex structural and technological solutions, but at the same time additionally increases the ultimate limit state insignificantly (according to the studies by less than 10 %). Due to the absence of the need to establish structures of the steel jacketing head, the labor intensiveness and terms of work production on strengthening the columns are reduced.

<p>With a total height of 55m, the Hyperion residential Tower is located near the Saint Jean train Station in Bordeaux France and was designed by the engineering firm Terrell in association with the architectural practice Jean-Paul Viguier &amp; Associates. The structure is braced with a reinforced concrete core, made of cross laminated timber floors, laminated timber beams along the periphery of the building, wood frame walls on the façades, and prefabricated steel balconies placed in situ with cranes. Detailed design of the composite tower was carried out by engineering firm Setec Tpi, through a large use of BIM software’s (Revit and Tekla) from which shop drawings were generated. The main contractor Eiffage had to face many challenges during construction to erect what is now the tallest wooden tower in France.</p>

Statement of the problem. It’s considered the problem of developing a methodology for structural evaluation of hybrid design - a reinforced concrete column combined with external composite GFRP (glass-fiber-reinforced-plastic) shell. This hybrid design is intended for bridge piers. Results. As a result of a study, theoretical relationships were formulated to determine the longitudinal and transverse stresses and relative deformations of hybrid column structural elements. The developed formulas take into account the cooperation of triaxial compressed concrete core and an anisotropic composite GFRP shell. Conclusions. The obtained theoretical dependences of the hybrid column’s elements behavior make it possible to develop a structural evaluation methodology of bridge piers hybrid columns. The findings of the investigation are proposed to be applied in the structural evaluations of the bridges piers hybrid columns with composite GFRP elements.

The uneven distributions of mass and stiffness in the case of multi-storey concrete buildings lead to a torsion sensitivity of those civil structures under dynamical loadings like earthquakes or wind and gusts. In order to minimize the overall torsion, it is imperatively necessary to reduce the distance between the centre of mass (CM) and centre of stiffness (CS) in the design stage. In this context, the main purpose of this paper is to present a theoretical method of reducing torsion by minimizing the distance between CM and CS at the level of each floor of the structure. Principal stiffness axes are also changed in convenient directions so that the movement of the structure leads to a favourable plastic mechanism in the fundamental mode of vibration. To achieve the goal, the main objective is to change the dimensions and orientations of the pillars located on the perimeter of the structures. The described method was used to study: irregular shaped structures in plan; structures with stairs or with central concrete core; structures with elevation retractions. The overall torsion reducing was achieved with Matlab programs, and the verification of the results was carried out by using the software ETABS 2016.
