The research on the mechanical characteristics of concrete-filled steel tubular composite frame under high temperature fire environment is one of the research hotspots. In this paper, the finite element simulation software is used to analyze the concrete-filled steel tubular composite frame structure. The failure mode of the flexural deformation of the composite frame structure under high temperature fire environment is introduced. The simulation results of the deformation and displacement of the single-layer single span and two-layer two-span composite frame structure are deeply studied, including the different temperature field, structural field, structural field of each beam and column The results show that: with the temperature rising, the horizontal plastic strain, vertical displacement and local plastic region of beam and column are redistributed and changed in high temperature fire environment, and the flexural effect of two-story two-span concrete-filled steel tubular composite frame under different fire positions is analyzed. The results show that: with the temperature rising, the horizontal plastic strain at the concentrated load is not the results show that the deflection and deformation redistribution are obvious, and the deflection and deformation redistribution are obvious at the joint points of beams and columns. Finally, a mechanism is formed and destroyed. The flexure effect of mode 1 is larger than that of condition 2, which indicates that the flexural effect of two-story two span CFST composite frame under full cross-section fire is larger than that of condition 2 It should be better. The research results can provide reference value for the reinforcement and repair of CFST composite frame under high temperature fire.

Research on the mechanical properties of concrete-filled steel tube composite frames at high temperatures is one of the current hot issues. In this paper, the finite element simulation software is used to analyze the concrete-filled steel tube composite frame, introduce the failure mode of the concrete-filled steel tube composite frame under high temperature, and deeply study the simulation results of the single-story mechanical performance. The single-span concrete-filled steel tube composite frame structure based on the analysis of the concrete-filled steel tube bearing capacity, including the role of each beam and column in different temperature fields, structural fields and coupling fields, as well as the role in the entire section. As the temperature increases and decreases, its mechanical properties will change significantly under the action of concentrated loads. The bearing capacity of the composite frame at high temperature is somewhat lower than that at room temperature. The research results can provide a reference for the reinforcement and repair of the steel tube concrete composite frame under high temperature.

This article numerically studies the seismic vulnerability of the frame structure made of ultra-high ductile cementitious composites without longitudinal and transverse reinforcement. A non-linear finite element model is established with the help of Open System for Earthquake Engineering Simulation and calibrated by shaking table test results on an ultra-high ductile cementitious composite-RC frame whose seismic vulnerable parts were replaced by ultra-high ductile cementitious composites without steel reinforcement. Subsequently, an analysis on the structural seismic vulnerability is performed on pure ultra-high ductile cementitious composite frame structure based on the incremental dynamic analysis method. Finally, a seismic vulnerability matrix of the ultra-high ductile cementitious composite frame under various structural limit states is obtained from seismic fragility curves. Under the major earthquake of magnitude 7.5, the probability of ultra-high ductile cementitious composite frame structure under basically intact, slight damage, moderate damage, serious damage, and collapse is 14.2%, 48.1%, 31.7%, 5.3%, and 0.7%, respectively. The achieved results also demonstrate that the ultra-high ductile cementitious composite frame can satisfy the objectivity of “No collapsed under major earthquake” at least for major earthquakes of magnitude 8. It is demonstrated that the ultra-high ductile cementitious composite frame satisfies three-level performance objectivity stipulated in GB 50011-2010 and, thus, preliminarily verifying the feasibility for constructing structures just using high-performance concrete.

Progressive collapse behavior of case-in-place concrete and steel frame structures has been extensively investigated over the past years. However, studies on progressive collapse resistance and characteristics of prefabricated RCS composite frame structure (space frame) are limited. In this study, a half-scale prefabricated RCS space frame structure (two-storey, 1 × 2-bay) was designed and manufactured and then tested through the sudden failure of the long-side central column. The weakened part of failure column was rapidly pulled out using vehicle traction force, and displacement was obtained with a dynamic data acquisition instrument supplemented by high-speed camera to record the deformation process of the structure. Additionally, the remaining structure displacement variation and the beam-to-column connections of fem model under progressive collapse were simulated using SAP2000. The FEA results were compared with the experimental results to verify the effectiveness of the numerical analysis. Experimental results demonstrated that the prefabricated RCS composite frame structure designed in accordance with Chinese building codes shows improved resistance to progressive collapse. The dynamic effect demonstrates no significant influence on the prefabricated RCS composite frame structure, and the suggested dynamic amplification coefficient is 1.28. Steel plates (A, B, and C) of the beam-to-column connection are the weak part of the structural failure, and appropriate measures should be applied to strengthen the steel plate of the beam-to-column connection when the prefabricated RCS composite frame structure is designed to resist progressive collapse. SAP2000 FEM program verified that the numerical simulation results are basically consistent with the experimental results.

ABSTRACTStructural integrity plays an important role in any industrial activity, due to its capability of assessing complex systems against sudden and unpredicted failures. The work here presented investigates an unexpected new mechanism occurring in structures subjected to monotonic and cyclic loading at high temperature creep condition. An unexpected accumulation of plastic strain is observed to occur, within the high-temperature creep dwell. This phenomenon has been observed during several full inelastic finite element analyses. In order to understand which parameters make possible such behaviour, an extensive numerical study has been undertaken on two different notched bars. The notched bar has been selected due to its capability of representing a multiaxial stress state, which is a practical situation in real components. Two numerical examples consisting of an axisymmetric v-notch bar and a semi-circular notched bar are considered, in order to investigate different notches severity. Two material models have been considered for the plastic response, which is modelled by both Elastic-Perfectly Plastic and Armstrong-Frederick kinematic hardening material models. The high-temperature creep behaviour is introduced using the time hardening law. To study the problem several results are presented, as the effect of the material model on the plastic strain accumulation, the effect of the notch severity and the mesh element type and sensitivity. All the findings further confirm that the phenomenon observed is not an artefact but a real mechanism, which needs to be considered when assessing off-design condition. Moreover, it might be extremely dangerous if the cyclic loading condition occurs at such a high loading level.

Beam column joint subassemblies in steel moment frames often have simply-supported gravity beams framing into the joint in the perpendicular direction. When these subassemblies undergo lateral displacement, moments enter the column from the beams. Some of these moments are directly applied from the in-plane beam and slab stresses as they contact the column, and additional moments occur as the slab causes the perpendicular simply supported beams to twist. In most design codes around the world, no explicit consideration of these moments is performed even though they may increase the likelihood of column yielding and a soft-storey mechanism. This paper quantifies the magnitude of these perpendicular beam twisting moments in typical subassemblies using inelastic finite element analysis. It is shown that for beam-column-joint-slab subassemblies where the primary and secondary beams are fully welded to the column, the addition of slab effects significantly increases the total stiffness and strength of the composite frame structure. In addition to this, it is also shown the twisting moment demand of the secondary beams increased the frames strength by approximately 2% for an imposed drift of 5% for the subassembly investigated when no gap was provided between slab and the column. It was also shown the twisting moment demand of the secondary beams increased the frames strength by approximately 10% for a maximum imposed drift of 5% for the subassembly investigated when a gap was provided between the slab and the column.
