Finite element models of frames with steel-bracings and with concrete filled steel tube struts are built in ETABS. Seismic performance of these models is analyzed with base-shear method, superposition of modal responses method and time history method respectively. The results show that the steel-bracings or concrete filled steel tube struts are efficient to increase the story-stiffness, and the top displacement of the frame structure decreases significantly.

The ultra-high-strength concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube column consists of a concrete-filled steel tube core and a rectangle-shaped reinforced concrete encasement. This article presents the seismic performance analysis of ultra-high-strength concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube columns subjected to cyclic loading. Based on the measured load-lateral displacement hysteresis curves of six ultra-high-strength concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube columns and two conventional RC columns, the seismic behaviours, such as the ductility, energy dissipation, stiffness and load-bearing capacity, were analysed. The effects of the arrangement of the stirrups and the layout of the prestressed steel strips on the seismic performance of the composite columns were critically examined. The test results indicated that the ductility and energy dissipation performance of the ultra-high-strength concrete-encased concrete-filled steel tube columns were increased by 74.8% and 162.7%, respectively, compared with the conventional columns. The configuration of the prestressed steel strip increased the ductility of the composite column by 28.9%–63% and increased the energy consumption performance by 160.2%–263.3%. By reducing the stirrup spacing and using prestressed steel strips, the concrete-filled steel tube core columns could be effectively confined, leading to a great enhancement in ductility, energy dissipation, stiffness and load-bearing capacity.

Rational finite element models established by ABAQUS to analysis the mechanical properties of square steel tubular beam-column joints under low cyclic loading. The two beam-column joints are connected with bolts, one is with welding extended steel sheets at the beam root and the other has no welding extended steel sheets. The calculation and analysis results show that the new joint style using concrete filled steel tube structure both in beams and columns has advantage on the seismic performance. The load-displacement hysteresis curve of the beam end is plump without significant pinching and the joint specimens showed good ductility. The comparative analysis reveals that the joint with welding extended steel sheets at the beam root is more superior in the seismic performance respected to the joint without welding extended steel sheets.
