In this paper, two joints of circular tubed steel-reinforced concrete (CTSRC) column were designed. The load-displacement hysteretic curve and skeleton curve of this new type of joint are obtained by the pseudostatic test under low cycle cyclic load on the top of the column. The results show that this new type of joint has good seismic energy dissipation performance. On the basis of the test, a three-fold skeleton curve model considering three characteristic points of yield, limit, and failure is proposed, and the expression of skeleton curve model is given. The load and unload stiffness degradation law of specimens under reciprocating load is studied, and the expression of stiffness degradation law is given. The hysteresis law of the new type joint specimens is described in detail. The validity of the model is verified by comparing the experimental curve with the model curve. The model can be used in the elastic-plastic seismic time-history analysis on the joint of circular tubed steel-reinforced concrete (CTSRC) column.

The study on the hysteretic characteristics of steel reinforced concrete (SRC) members is the basis of nonlinear seismic analysis of such structures. So in this paper, by summarizing the hysteretic features of SRC members, a quadrant-linear restoring-force model is suggested. Then the model is verified with available experimental results and proved to be effective and reliable.

With the aim to model the seismic behavior of steel reinforced concrete (SRC) frame columns, in this research, hysteresis and skeleton curves were obtained based on the damage test results of SRC frame columns under low cyclic repeat loading and the hysteretic behavior of the frame columns was further analyzed. Then, the skeleton curve and hysteresis loops were further simplified. The simplified skeleton curve model was obtained through the corresponding feature points obtained by mechanical and regression analysis. The nonlinear combination seismic damage index, which was developed by the test results and can well reflect the effect of the loading path and the number of loading cycle of SRC frame columns, was used to establish the cyclic degradation index. The strength and stiffness degradation rule of the SRC frame columns was analyzed further by considering the effect of the accumulated damage caused by an earthquake. Finally, the hysteresis model of the SRC frame columns was established, and the specific hysteresis rules were given. The validity of the developed hysteresis model was verified by e comparison between the calculated results and the test results. The results showed that the model could describe the hysteresis characteristics of the SRC frame columns under cyclic loading and provide guidance for the elastoplastic time-history analysis of these structures.

Nonlinear finite element analysis of abnormal exterior joints consist of Steel Reinforced Concrete column and Reinforced Concrete beam was performed using ABAQUS computation program, the joints failure mode and the skeleton curve were calculated. Comparison with experimental results to prove the reliability of finite element analysis. Then, the paper analyzed different parameters which affect the joints loading capacity, the results indicate that to a certain extent, the eccentricity of the upper and lower column sections and steel ratio both have important effects on the stiffness and ultimate loading capacity of the joints; with the increment of the ratio of axial compression, the joints ductility will be reduced.

A numerical simulation of the hysteresis performance of corroded reinforced concrete (RC) frame columns was conducted. Moreover, the results obtained were compared with experimental data. On this basis, a degenerated three-linearity (D-TRI) restoring force model was established which could reflect the hysteresis performance of corroded RC frame columns through theoretical analysis and data fitting. Results indicated that the hysteretic bearing capacity of frame columns decreased significantly due to corrosion of the rebar. In view of the characteristics of the hysteresis curve, the plumpness of the hysteresis loop for frame columns decreased and shrinkage increased with increasing rebar corrosion. All these illustrated that the seismic energy dissipation performance of frame columns reduced but their brittleness increased. As for the features of the skeleton curve, the trends for corroded and noncorroded members were basically consistent and roughly corresponded to the features of a trilinear equivalent model. Thereby, the existing Clough hysteresis rule can be used to establish the restoring force model applicable to corroded RC frame columns based on that of the noncorroded RC members. The calculated skeleton curve and hysteresis curve of corroded RC frame columns using the D-TRI model are closer to the experimental results.

A new type joint of Circular Tubed Steel-Reinforced Concrete (CTSRC) columns was designed in this paper. The structural characteristics, manufacturing process, and mechanical properties of raw materials of the new joint were introduced. In order to simulate the earthquake action, two joint specimens were subjected to low-cycle cyclic loading at the end of the column. Based on the in-depth study of the failure characteristics, load-displacement hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, ductility index, load-strain hysteretic curve in the core area of the joint, energy dissipation performance, strength and stiffness degradation performance, and shear deformation in the core area of the joint during the whole loading process, the seismic behavior of this new type of joint was investigated. The results show that the new joint has reasonable failure characteristics, high bearing capacity, good ductility, excellent seismic energy dissipation performance, and strong resistance to strength and stiffness degradation, which meets the seismic design principle of “strong joint and weak component” and is suitable for the results with special requirements for seismic performance. In addition, preliminary design recommendations were put forward. The research results of this paper can provide a theoretical basis for the application of this kind of new structure.

Concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) structure is a new type of structure. According to unified theory, hysteretic model of steel beam, reinforced concrete beam and CFST column have been chosen respectively, then nonlinear structural analysis program called IDARC is employed to determine skeleton curve of the CFST frame structure. Results obtained from program are consistent well with those obtained from experiments. Furthermore, some parameters that affect the restoring force model of CFST structure have been studied, including axial compression ratio, steel ratio, material strength and so on. The results not only provide necessary theory basis for popularizing the CFST structure but play a valuable role to seismic design of CFST structure. The contribution described herein outlines a possibility for simulating the seismic behavior of CFST using the nonlinear program called IDARC. The present work offers a simplified approach for establishing the skeleton curves of CFST frames.
