The high-strength concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular (HCFTST) columns, as a relatively new type structure member, could reduce the section size to obtain the favorable architecture aesthetic effects and gain further economic benefits. In this paper, the HCFTST columns were optimized on the basis of the orthogonal array of L16 (45) with three tested parameters. The orthogonal range analysis (ORA) was utilized to research the alteration degree, and the orthogonal variance analysis (OVA) was employed to analyze the significant degree between different parameters. Moreover, the optimized combinations based on performance index including strength, ductility, and energy dissipation were recommended to offer certain reference for structural design and application. Finally, a modified damage assessment model was proposed and verified. It indicates that the HCFTST columns with reasonable design could display favorable performance and can be expected to have a widespread application in engineering structures.

In order to study the mechanical response of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns, several experimental and theoretical studies have been conducted in the last years. However, the influence of thin-walled steel tubes on the axial capacity of these composite columns is not completely stablished, especially when it is combined with high-strength concrete as infill. In this paper, the results of an experimental campaign on 9 concrete-filled steel tubular stub columns subjected to concentric load are presented. Different cross-section shapes are considered in this campaign, i.e. circular, square and rectangular. The influence of the steel tube wall thickness is analysed by including in the tests specimens with thin-walled tubes, whose behaviour needs to be studied in depth given the issues arising when working under compression. The experimental program is designed so the analysis of the results permits to drawn consistent conclusions. For each series, the steel tube thickness is the only geometric parameter modified in order to properly study its effect. Besides, two different concrete strengths were considered for the concrete infill, i.e. normal and high- strength concrete, to observe their effect on the ultimate capacity of the columns. During the tests, the specimens are subjected to axial load and the evolution of the axial displacement with the load is registered. The ultimate capacity of each specimen is obtained and an analysis of the steel tube thickness and concrete strength influence is accomplished. Finally, the study of the dependency of the failure mode on these parameters is carried out.

A full test on the flexible behaviors of the long flanges and trapezoidal section high-strength concrete thin-walled box girder has been performed. The deflection horizontal distribution, strain and strain distribution of concrete and reinforced bars in the compressive flanges, strain distribution along rib height have been studied. The results demonstrate that reinforced concrete thin-walled box girder has fine flexible behavior and ductility, strain distribution along rib height agrees with the basic assume, i.e. Plane section before deforming remain plane, and the destructive experimental results disclosed the full process law of shear lag effect and equivalent calculated coefficient of compressed flange width at middle span section, which can be served as a reference for that applying elementary reinforced concrete beam theory settles the ultimate flexural capacity calculation of concrete thin-walled box girder.

Under seismic action, the severe damage in critical regions of structures could be ascribed to the cumulative damage caused by cyclic loading. This article describes an investigation of the hysteresis behaviour of Q690 circular high-strength concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular columns with out-of-code diameter-to-thickness ratios. A total of eight specimens were tested under constant axial compression and cyclic lateral loading. The study results of phase I testing consisting of a benchmark test were summarized to examine the seismic behaviour under standard loading, and those of the phase II testing that considered different fatigue loading modes and different concrete strengths were summarized to investigate the low-cycle fatigue behaviour. The load–displacement hysteretic curves, energy dissipation, strength and stiffness degradation were discussed in detail. A simplified method was proposed to predict the low-cycle fatigue life, which can be applied in the damage-based seismic design of circular concrete-filled steel tubular structures.

A high-efficient complex reactive composition consisting of a polycarboxylate polymer, cesium nitrate (CsNO3) and silica sol was developed for cast-in-place housing construction from high-strength concrete. The use of this composition provides production of high-strength concrete with increased crack resistance.

Lego technology is one of the modern construction solutions providing cost reduction, increasing architectural expressiveness and the pace of work. This is the development of groove-ridge positioning systems and connection of small-piece wall elements. Currently, the technology of Lego blocks is implemented on various types of building materials: ceramic and hyper-pressed non-fired bricks, blocks from various types of lightweight concrete, which have not found wide practical application due to an obvious shift in the balance of properties either towards aesthetics – brick, or thermal insulation - blocks. In this regard, a technology for producing multi-hollow thin-walled lego blocks based on self-compacting high-strength fine-grained concrete with various types of high-porous filling is proposed. In this paper, the compositions of high-strength concrete mixes for the manufacture of lego block frames are proposed. The main emphasis in the development is made on improving the manufacturability of their production and the maximum efficiency of using the clinker component. Overcoming the multicomponent problem is achieved by replacing traditional cement with a special all-in-one composite binder. Due to the unacceptability of traditional methods of dispersed reinforcement for producing thin-walled products from self-compacting fine-grained mixtures, it is proposed to carry out dispersed micro-reinforcement at the level of cement stone, for which a technology is developed and the optimal parameters of dispersion of glass and basalt fiber are determined. Thanks to this approach, reinforcing fibers are included in the composition of the composite binder itself, which ensures maximum manufacturability and an increase in compressive strength up to 20...25 %.
