Tests are described in which short, rectangular steel columns filled with concrete are loaded to failure under axial load. Part of the load is applied at typical beam connections within the column length; and part is applied at the top, representing the load from upper stories of a building. The length of the column near the connection over which slip takes place is examined, and the ultimate strength of the columns is compared with that of stub columns loaded uniformly over their length. A small reduction in strength is found to occur, which depends upon the proportion of total load applied at the connection. An empirical means of accounting for this strength reduction is given. Key words: columns, composite construction, connections, tubular columns, axial compression.

Abstract: 7 square steel tubular columns were tested to discuss the ultimate axial bearing capacity, ductility performance and the steel consumption under stiffened by steel belts and binding bars of different cross-sections. Test results indicate that only by increasing fewer amounts of steel usage, stiffened square CFST columns with binding bars can not only improve the overall effects of restraint and alleviate regional local buckling between the binding bars, but also improve the bearing capacity of concrete filled square steel tubular columns. The utility benefits and the economical benefit is considerable, deserving extensive use.

This experimental study presents concrete-filled double-skin tubular columns and demonstrates their expected advantages. These columns consist of an outer steel tube, an inner steel tube, and concrete sandwiched between two tubes. The influence of the outer-to-inner tube dimension ratio, outer tube to thickness ratio, and type of inner tube material (steel, PVC pipe) on the ultimate axial capacity of concrete-filled double-skin tubular columns is studied. It is found that the yield strength of the inner tube does not significantly affect the ultimate axial capacity of concrete-filled double-skin tubular composites. With the replacement of the inner tube of steel with a PVC pipe, on average, less than 10% strength is reduced, irrespective of size and dimensions of the steel tube. Hence, the cost of a project can be reduced by replacing inner steel tubes with a PVC pipes. Finally, the experimental results are compared with the existing design methods presented in AISC 360-16 (2016), GB51367 (2019), and EC4 (2004). It is found from the comparison that GB51367 (2019) gives better results, followed by AISC (2016) and EC4 (2004).

In this study, the response quantities affecting the equivalent yield curvature, which is important in the deformation-based seismic design and assessment of structural systems, are investigated for reinforced concrete columns with a square cross-section. In this context, the equivalent yield curvatures were determined by conducting moment–curvature analyses on various column models, in which the axial load level, cross-section dimension, longitudinal reinforcement ratio, and concrete compression strength were changed parametrically, and the independent and/or combined effects of the relevant parameters were discussed. Depending on the axial load levels of P/Agfc′ < 0.3, P/Agfc′ = 0.3, and P/Agfc′ > 0.3 for the considered columns, the yielding of reinforcement, yielding of reinforcement and/or concrete crushing, and concrete crushing governed the yield conditions, respectively. It can be noted that the cross-section dimension and axial load level became the primary parameters. Even though the independent effects with regard to particular parameters remained at minimal levels, the combined effects of them with the axial load became important in terms of the equivalent yield curvature.

. Abstract. Tests on TCFT-WB, including 11 specimens with binding bars and 5 without binding bars under axial compression were carried out. The effects of parameters on the behavior of specimens such as failure mode, bearing capacity and ductility are analyzed to provide experimental data for the following research. The formula to calculate ultimate strength of TCFT-WB columns under axial compression are deduced from the constitutive relationship of TCFT-WB. The calculated results are compared with those calculated by FEM analyses, showing the proposed formula can give reasonable predictions on the ultimate strength of TCFT-WB stub columns under axial compression.
