To investigate the applicability of the methods for calculating the bearing capacity of high-strength steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) composite columns according to specifications and the effect of confinement of stirrups and steel on the bearing capacity of SRC columns. The axial compression tests were conducted on 10 high-strength SRC columns and 4 ordinary SRC columns. The influences of the steel strength grade, the steel ratio, the types of stirrups and slenderness ratio on the bearing capacity of such members were examined. The analysis results indicate that using high-strength steel and improving the steel ratio can significantly enhance the bearing capacity of the SRC columns. When the slenderness ratio increases dramatically, the bearing capacity of the SRC columns plummets. As the confinement effect of the stirrups on the concrete improves, the utilization ratio of the high-strength steel in the SRC columns increases. Furthermore, the results calculated by AISC360-19(U.S.), EN1994-1-1-2004 (Europe), and JGJ138-2016(China) are too conservative compared with test results. Finally, a modified formula for calculating the bearing capacity of the SRC columns is proposed based on the confinement effect of the stirrups and steel on concrete. The results calculated by the modified formula and the finite element modeling results based on the confinement effect agree well with the test results.

Calculation Results

At present, the existing standards (AISC360-16, EN1994-1-1:2004, and JGJ138-2016) lack relevant provisions for steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) composite columns with high-strength steel. To investigate the axial compressive mechanical performance of short high-strength steel-reinforced concrete (HSSRC) columns, the axial load test was conducted on 12 short composite columns with high-strength steel and ordinary steel. The influences of steel strength, steel ratio, and the section form of steel on the failure modes, bearing capacity, and ductility of the specimens were studied. Afterward, the experimental data were compared with the existing calculation results. The results show: compared with the specimens with Q235 steel, the bearing capacity of the specimens with Q460 steel increases by 7.8–15.3%, the bearing capacity of the specimens with Q690 steel increases by 13.2–24.1%, but the ductility coefficient increases by 15.2–202.4%; with the increase of steel ratio, the bearing capacity and ductility of specimens are significantly improved. A change of the steel cross-section could influence the ductility of SRC columns more than their bearing capacity. Moreover, the calculation results show that present standards could not predict the bearing capacity of HSSRC columns. Therefore, a modified method for determining the effective strength of steel equipped in HSSRC columns was proposed. The results of the ABAQUS simulation also showed that the addition of steel fibers could significantly improve the bearing capacity of Q690 HSSRC columns. The research results provide a reference for engineering practices.

To investigate the bearing capacity of the hollow Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) pipe-concrete-steel tube composite long columns subjected to eccentrical compression load, 33 hollow GFRP pipe-concrete-steel tube composite long columns have been designed. The slenderness ratio (λ), compressive strength of concrete cube (fcu), eccentricity (e) and so on are the main parameters. Based on constitutive models for steel, GFRP and confined concrete, numerical simulation of the hollow GFRP pipe-concrete-high strength steel tube composite long columns has been carried out by using software ABAQUS. The rationality of the constitutive models and modeling method has been verified by comparing the experimental and simulated load-displacement curves. The influence of different parameters on the mechanical behavior of this kind of column has been investigated. Results show that with the increasing of t1, t2 and fcu, the ultimate eccentrical compression bearing capacity of the specimen increases. With the increasing of e, the ultimate displacement of the specimens increases, while the ultimate eccentrical compression bearing capacity decreases. The eccentricity has a significant influence on the ultimate eccentrical compression bearing capacity. With the increasing of λ, the ultimate eccentrical compression bearing capacity of the specimens gradually decreases. The specimens suffer from ductile failure. The formula of the ultimate eccentrical compression bearing capacity of the composite columns is obtained by statistical regression. The study can provide theoretical support for the application of the composite columns in practical engineering.

Axial compression experiments of four full-scale reinforced concrete columns of two groups were carried out. One group of three columns used high-strength steel with the yield strength of 1000MPa as reinforcement hoops, and the second group used the ordinary-strength steel with yield strength of 400MPa. The axial compressive performances between these two groups were assessed. Compared to the specimen using the ordinary-strength steel, the axial compressive bearing capacity of using the high strength steel dose not increase significantly, while the deformation ability increases greatly. The results also indicate that the stress redistributions of the hoops and the concrete sections are obvious, and long-lasting when specimens achieve the ultimate bearing capacity after the yield of the rebar and local damage of concrete materials, at this time the strain of the specimens developes a lot, especially stress - strain curves of speciments with high-strength hoop all show a wide and flat top.

Axial Stability

Steel tube filled with steel-reinforced concrete (STSRC) is a new kind of heavy load column, which made by inserting steel skeletons into the steel tube, then injecting the concrete to the tube. In order to study the combined column’s stability subject to axial compression, we use energy method and numerical methods analysis derives the formula of stability coefficient in which slenderness ratio as the main parameters. Using the 1/1000 column length as the initial deflection of the STSRC columns by FORTUNE calculation program, stability coefficient is produced through comparison and analysis between calculated results from quantile regression and that from ordinary least square regression respectively. According to the computer results and energy method, the formula for calculating the axial stability bearing capacity of STSRC was established. A good agreement between the calculation results and testing results illustrates, which is feasible to using the calculating formula to calculate the bearing capacity of STSRC

The objectives of this research were to investigate the structural behavior of slender steel reinforced concrete (Referred to as SRC)composite columns subjected to eccentric axial loading. The test consisted of 10 slender columns, with rectangular section160×180mm, and steel shape I10 encased in concrete. The stirrup spacing was 150 mm; its diameter was 6 mm. The diameter of longitudinal reinforcing bars was 10 mm. Details of the experimental investigations including description of the test columns, failure modes and mechanisms, strain characteristics, and load-deformation responses are discussed. Effects of concrete strength, slenderness of columns, and eccentricity of axial loads on the load-carrying capacity of slender column are then presented. Based on these results, a range of slenderness ratio and eccentric ratio of slender SRC column is proposed.
