This paper mainly focused on the seismic performance and shear calculation method of steel reinforced high-strength concrete (SRHC) columns with rectangular helical hoops. An experimental investigation was performed in this paper. Eleven SRHC columns with rectangular helical hoops and one with ordinary hoops were constructed at the laboratory of Guangxi university. The failure modes, hysteresis loops, envelope curves, characteristic loads and displacements and cumulative damage analysis are presented and investigated. It can be seen from the test results that the failure modes of SRHC columns can be divided into three types with the shear span ratio increased, namely, shear baroclinic failure mode, flexure-shear failure mode and flexure failure mode. In addition, the specimens with rectangular helical hoops have plumper hysteretic loops. Shear span ratio is the main influencing factor of characteristic load; the axial compression ratio and concrete strength have less influence on characteristic load, while stirrup ratio has little effect on the characteristic load. Finally, a calculation method for shear capacity of SRHC columns under shear baroclinic failure and flexure-shear failure mode is proposed.

Four test pieces with different steel plate center-to-center distances and reinforcement ratios are subjected to low-cycle repeat quasistatic loading to optimize properties as failure mode, hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, energy dissipation parameters, strength parameters, and seismic performance of high-strength concrete low-rise shear walls. The embedded steel plates are shown to effectively restrict wall crack propagation, enhance the overall steel ratio, and improve the failure mode of the wall while reducing the degree of brittle failure. Under the same conditions, increasing the spacing between the steel plates in the steel plate concrete shear wall can effectively preserve the horizontal bearing capacity of the shear wall under an ultimate load. The embedded steel plates perform better than concealed bracing in delaying stiffness degeneration in the low-rise shear walls, thus safeguarding their long-term bearing capacity. The results presented here may provide a workable basis for shear wall design optimization.

This article aims to study the calculation for shear capacity of SRHC (Steel Reinforced High-Strength Concrete) members restrained with CFS (Carbon Fiber Sheet). Experimental study, theoretical analysis and calculation simulating are integrated in this article for the research of the shear failure characteristics and effect of various parameters on their behavior of SRHC members restrained with SFC on the basis of existed SRHC members tested results. The shear strength formula of steel reinforcement high-strength concrete short columns restrained with CFS is put forward, which based on the superposed strength method. This method on the basis of the load-deformation process of CFS is similar to hooping. The results indicate that the shear capacity of SRHC columns restrained with CFS is higher than SRHC columns. And, due to the axial compression ratio, shear span ratio and the amount of reinforcement influence the shear capacity of the FRP materials. So, these three kinds of factors are also the influencing factors of shear capacity of SRHC members restrained with CFS. The effect of the internal concrete restrained with CFS is good because of the function of CFS is equal to hooping and the strain of CFS is bigger than the strain of steel, so this simple calculation method is safe , which may be useful for further study and engineering design.

This study proposes a new type of fabricated hybrid frame structure, which is a prefabricated high-strength concrete tube column–steel beam joint hybrid frame structure. A series of six full-scale cruciform prefabricated high-strength concrete tube column–H-shaped beam joint specimens was tested under cyclic loading to investigate the seismic performance of the new fabricated hybrid frame structure. We designed the connection in the manner that the capacity of beam was higher than that of the column. The cracking pattern, failure modes, energy dissipation capacity, and strain profiles of the specimens were obtained and discussed. The test results showed that some specimens collapsed due to ring plate tearing failure and weld fracture, while other specimens collapsed due to column flexural failure. Shear connectors (i.e. shear studs and shear reinforcement) could ensure the reliable transmission of shear force, and the compound stirrups can effectively improve bearing capacity and joint ductility. The stiffness degradation of specimens was smooth with a linearly decreasing trend because of the prestressed reinforcement. The new joints could be applied in a seismic region.

The bonded joints between carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and high strength concrete subjected to different freeze-thaw cycles were studied and the results were analyzed. The test results indicate that with the increase of freeze-thaw cycles, effective bond length, ultimate bond load and ultimate global slip response will decrease. But it has little effects on initial stripping load. The failure modes change from adhesive debonding to shear failure of concrete.

19 RC beams with shear span-to-depth equal to 3 were tested under a stiff testing facility, and complete load-deflection curves including the post-peak branch were obtained. Based on the test results the effects of concrete strength, stirrups strength, inclined stirrup angle, the amount of longitudinal reinforcement on failure mode, shear ductility index and shear capacity were analyzed. The test results were compared with the shear design approaches of Chinese Code and American Code. The results indicate that the shear failure of beam with appropriate web reinforcement has finite ductility. High-strength concrete beams with high-strength stirrups can increase not only the shear capacity, but also the shear ductility. The shear capacity of beams with high-strength concrete and stirrup can be designed with Chinese Code, but shear capacity of high-strength concrete beams without stirrups, or with the smaller amount of longitudinal reinforcement, and normal strength concrete beams with high-strength stirrups may be over-estimated by the Code.

For expedite the development of high titanium heavy slag concrete, eight high titanium heavy slag high strength reinforced concrete (HTHS-HSRC) scale model column are studied. The eight HTHS-HSRC model columns are tested under reversed horizontal force. Primary experimental parameters include axial load ratio varying from 0.3 to 0.5, volumetric ratios of transverse reinforcement ranging from 1.38% to 1.56%, strength of high titanium heavy slag high strength concrete varying from 55.9 to 61.6 N/mm2 and configurations of transverse reinforcement. It is found from the test result that HTHS-HSRC model columns provides comparable seismic performance to those usually used reinforced concrete column in terms of member ductility, hysteretic and energy dissipation capacity. Primary Factors of Displacement Ductility of Model Columns are also discussed.
