The Stability

With the rapid development of power transmission and transformation projects in China, steel supporting structure has already became the most popular structural form for these structures. However, the limit of steel grade used for current substation supporting structures is normally Q420, compared with that of Q690 used in other countries. When the high-strength steel is used, the geometric parameters of section for members become smaller, and the stability of members is the most important factors to influence the bearing capacity of structures. The stability factor for axial loaded steel members in current 《Code for design of steel structures》(GB50017-2003) was derived based on the experimental results for steel members with lower steel grade, the results are inevitably different from those for high-strength steel members. To make the calculations of Q690 high-strength steel tubes more accurate and reasonable, this paper conducts experimental study on the bearing capacity of Q690 high-strength steel tubes under axial load to provide scientific basis for practical design of these structures.

Concrete Filled Steel Tube

Concrete filled steel tube has been consistently used in tall buildings as it represents excellent structural performance and economical efficiency compared with other structural systems. The use of high strength steel in concrete filled steel tube can reduce the column size and increase the effective space in the buildings. But, the limit of width-to-thickness ratio to prevent local buckling is an obstacle to applying the high strength steel as it considerably decrease following to the strength increase. This paper addresses the effect of steel plate slenderness limit on the compression behavior in 800 MPa Grade steel. Four short column specimens were tested under axial compression. Main test variables were width-to-thickness ratio and shape of section. Test results were analyzed in the viewpoint of local buckling strength, yield strength, maximum strength and plastic deformation capacity of specimens. The experimental results showed that all specimens exceeded the maximum strength of calculated value by design code and represented similar deformation capacity regardless of width-to-thickness ratio. So, the limit of width-to-thickness ratio in high strength steel could be amended less strict.

Standard Quality

Modern high-strength steels achieve their strength exclusively through the manufacturing process, as the chemical composition of these steels is very similar to the composition of standard-quality steels. Typically, hot-dip galvanizing is used to form a protective zinc layer on the steel parts of structures; nonetheless, the material is exposed to high temperatures during the process. With high-strength steels, this can lead to deterioration of the mechanical properties. This study aims to experimentally examine and evaluate the extent of deterioration of the mechanical properties of high-strength-steel members. The effect was studied on specimens made of three different types of steel with the yield strength ranging from 460 to 1250 MPa. For each type of steel, selected mechanical properties—yield strength, tensile strength, and hardness—were determined on specimens with and without hot-dip galvanization, and the obtained results were mutually compared. Our study shows a significant impact of the hot-dip galvanization process on the mechanical properties of some high-strength steels. With the studied types of steel, the yield strength decreased by up to 18%, the tensile strength by up to 13%, and the hardness by up to 55%.

Buckling Behavior

Compared to the ordinary strength steel extensively applied in structures currently, high strength steel, a new kind of construction material, has many differences on mechanical properties. Though high strength steel has been applied in several projects in the world, which has obtained good effects, there is a lack of the design method for high strength steel structures and researches on the loading capacity of high strength steel members. To study the local buckling behavior of high strength steel members under axial compression, finite element models are developed to predict the loading capacity of high strength steel welded I-section and box-section stub columns under axial compression in this paper. With accurate simulation of 17 high strength steel specimens, the finite element analysis results agree well with the corresponding test results, and the average deviation of the ultimate loading capacity of 17 specimens is about -3.1%. It’s verified that the finite element models developed in this paper can accurately simulate high strength steel members with the initial geometric imperfections and residual stresses, and analyze the local buckling behavior of high strength steel members under axial compression. In addition, it provides a basis for the parametric study of high strength steel members under axial compression in future.
