The application of concrete filled steel tubes (CFSTs) as composite members has widely been used around the world and is becoming popular day by day for structural application especially in earthquake regions. This paper indicates that an experimental study was conducted to comprehend the behaviour of T-stub end plates connected to concrete filled thin-walled steel tube (CFTST) with different types of bolts and are subjected to pull-out load. The bolts used are normal type bolt M20 grade 8.8 and Lindapter Hollo-bolt HB16 and HB20. A series of 10 mm thick T-stub end plates were fastened to 2 mm CFTST of 200 mm x 200 mm in cross-section. All of the specimens were subjected to monotonic pull-out load until failure. Based on test results, the Lidapter Hollo-bolts showed better performance compare to normal bolts. The highest ultimate limit load for T-stub end plate fasten with Lindapter Hollo-bolt is four times higher than with normal bolt although all end plates show similar behaviour and failure mode patterns. It can be concluded that T-stub end plate with Lindapter Hollo-bolt shows a better performance in the service limit and ultimate limit states according to the regulations in the design codes.

This paper discusses results of experiments on blind bolted end plate joints to concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular (CFTST) columns. Four exterior joints to CFTST columns subjected to cyclic loadings. A feature of this novel joint is the use of the blind bolts and extensions to these bolts into the concrete-filled square steel tubular column. Failure modes, moment-rotation hysteretic curves and energy consumption of the connections were analyzed. Further, the connection rigidity and ductility were also elevated by present specifications. The test results showed that the end plate type and the steel tube thickness affect the seismic behaviour of the typed blind bolted end plate joints. The proposed joint has reasonable strength, stiffness and ductility by taking reasonable end plate type, steel tube thickness and blind bolt anchorage; its ultimate connection rotation satisfies the ductility design requirements, and could be reliably and safety used in low-layer or multi-layer composite frames.

Since the expansion of the cement during curing was constraint by the steel tube, the concrete core in the self-stressing concrete-filled steel tubes (SSCFST) is under tri-axially compression before applying load, which increases the axial capacity of the SSCFST. In addition, Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) wrapping can avoid bucking of the steel tube, increase the axial capacity and improve the durability of SSCFST. This study presents a theoretical study on axial capacity of the SSCFST wrapped with CFRP sheets. Several basic assumptions are proposed. The ultimate equilibrium method was employed to analyze the axial capacity, of which two limit states, including steel tube bucking and CFRP sheets rupturing were considered. The analytical results from an example show that the initial self-stress improves axial capacity of the SSCFST by about 30% and the CFRP reinforcement improves axial capacity by about 15%.

Concrete Filled Steel Tubes

Concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs) have been introduced to expedite construction and increase the confinement of concrete by the steel tube. While changing the confinement level through the use of expansive additives (EAs) will have an impact on the performance of CFSTs, limited information is available on the behavior of expansive concrete-filled steel tubular (ECFST) columns. The objective of this study is thus twofold: (i) to experimentally assess the behavior of axially loaded ECFSTs, and (ii) to investigate the correlation between the test results and those obtained from prediction approaches. The experimental program of this study consists of testing four 1500 mm CFST/ECFST columns with 153.6 mm outer diameter and 3 mm thickness. The ECFST specimens are divided into two subgroups with 0% and 12% EA dosage and two concrete mixtures, 16 and 37 MPa. The results indicate that the latter is the most promising mixture since it results in a significant enhancement of 64% in the axial load capacity of ECFST columns compare with CFSTs. The study also recommends employing specific confined concrete models with the existing code prediction approaches to arrive at the best correlation with test results.

The increasing demand on the performance of existing structures, together with their degradation, is among the main drivers towards the development of innovative strengthening solutions. While such solutions are generally aimed at increasing the load-bearing capacity of structural elements, serviceability limit states also play an important role in ensuring the performance and durability of the structure. An experimental campaign was performed to assess the cracking behaviour of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with different typologies of Textile-Reinforced Concrete. The specimens were monitored using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technology in order to obtain a quantitative evaluation of the evolution of the crack pattern throughout the whole test. Results show the beneficial effects of this retrofitting strategy both at ultimate limit states and serviceability limit states, provide detailed insights on the progression of damage in the specimens and highlight how different parameters impact the cracking behaviour of the tested elements.

Concrete Filled Steel Tubes

A review on the properties of recycled aggregate concrete filled steel tubes (RACSFT) was presented, followed by the short overview on the related researches. The uniaxial mechanical behavior, flexural performance, creep performance as well as eccentric loaded behavior of RACSFT specimens were discussed. It was found that the differences between the element made of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) and that of natural aggregate concrete (NAC) could not be ignored. The performance of the RACFST is inferior to that of natural concrete filled steel tube (CFST). But, the RACSFT can be applied into structural elements safely. Based on the test results, it was also concluded that the RACSFT is an effective method to improve the application of RAC.

One steel grid and five thin-walled concrete-filled steel tubes (CTST) used as the supports of tunnel were tested in site for investigating the mechanical behavior. The mechanical influences of thickness, node form, and concrete on CTST were gained and compared with the impacts on steel grid. It is indicated that high antideformation capacity of CTST improved the stability of surrounding rock in short time. The cementitious grouted sleeve connection exhibited superior flexibility when CTST was erected and built. Although the deformation of rock and soil in the tunnel was increasing, good compression resistance was observed by CTST with the new connection type. It was also seen that vault, tube foot, and connections were with larger absolute strain values. The finite element analysis (FEA) was carried out using ABAQUS program. The results were validated by comparison with experimental results. The FE model could be referred by similar projects.

Concrete filled steel tubes (CFST) represent a composite building member suitable especially for the construction of columns of a skeleton frame. Filling the steel tube with concrete allows the use of suitable properties of both materials and their interaction. This is very beneficial in a fire exposure, where a circular column has slightly better fire resistance than a square column. In case of an assessment of columns at the ultimate limit state (ULS), a buckling resistance decides. In previous research, it was found that increasing the strength of concrete increases buckling resistance only to a certain extent. The main aim of the article is to show through a theoretical study what benefit the use of ultra-high strength concrete has for buckling resistance of CFST.
