The Impact

In view of development and repair costs, support of structures is imperative. Several factors, for example, design and calculation errors, absence of appropriate installation, change of structures application, exhaustion, seismic tremor, fire and natural conditions diminish their strength. In such cases, structures have need of rehabilitation and restoration to achieve their original performance. One of the most up to date materials for retrofitting is carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) that can provide an amount of restriction to postpone buckling of thin steel walls. This paper provides a numerical and experimental investigation on CFRP strengthened short steel tubes with initial horizontal and vertical deficiency under compression. Ten square and circular specimens were tested to study effects of the following parameters: (1) position of deficiency, horizontal or vertical; (2) tube shape, square or circular; (3) CFRP strengthening. In the experiments, axial static loading was gradually applied and for the numerical study three-dimensional (3D) static nonlinear analysis method using ABAQUS software was performed. The results show that deficiency reduces load-bearing capacity of steel columns and the impact of horizontal deficiency is higher than the impact of vertical deficiency, in both square and circular tubes. Use of CFRP materials for strengthening of short steel columns with initial deficiency indicates that fibers play a considerable role on increasing load bearing capacity, reducing stress at the damage location, preventing deformation caused by deficiency and delaying local buckling. Both numerical and experimental outcomes are in good agreement, which underlines the accuracy of the models adopted.

The paper presents the analysis of the experimental data of 1817 on concrete‐filled steel tubes ‐ CFSTs. These results are compared with the predicted results of the load‐bearing capacity of calculations of slender elements according to the methods suggested by Eurocode 4. The following types of tested CFSTs were analysed: circular and rectangular hollow section stub and long columns fully filled with concrete, which were with or without applied moments at the ends of specimen. During the results obtained in the result of the tests on the load bearing capacity for circular concrete‐filled steel tubular columns correspond with the calculated values based on methods presented by Eurocode 4. The experimental values of load bearing capacity for members of concrete‐filled rectangular hollow sections agree very well with the theoretical values where the concrete cylinder strength is below 75 N/mm2. The analysis demonstrated that preloading of concrete‐filled hollow section members does not influence the load bearing capacity. This paper also presents the examination of stress state distribution for concrete‐filled hollow section members, influence of concrete preloading and of longitudinal stress strain curves. Santrauka Straipsnyje aptariami 1817 betonšerdžiu plieniniu vamzdiniu strypu eksperimentiniai duomenys. Šie duomenys lyginami su rezultatais, gautais remiantis Eurocode 4 pateiktais kompozitiniu elementu laikomosios galios nustatymo metodais. Analizuojami tokie betonšerdžiu plieniniu strypu bandiniu tipai: pilnavidures trumpos arba liaunos apskritojo ir stačiakampio skerspjūvio vamzdines betonšerdes plienines kolonos su ju galuose veikiančiu lenkiamuoju momentu arba be jo. Apskritojo skerspjūvio betonšerdžiu kolonu bandymu metu gautieji laikomosios galios rezultatai atitinka remiantis Eurocode 4 pateiktais metodais apskaičiuotasias ju reikšmes. Stačiakampio skerspjūvio betonšerdžiu elementu laikomosios galios bandymais rastosios reikšmes labai gerai atitinka teorines reikšmes, kai šerdies betono ritininis stipris nesiekia 75 N/mm2. Analizuojant nustatyta, kad išankstinis betonšerdžiu elementu apkrovimas neturi beveik jokio poveikio elementu laikomajai galiai. Šiame straipsnyje taip pat nagrinejamas betonšerdžiu elementu itempiu būviu pasiskirstymas, betono apspaudimo poveikis bei išilginiu deformaciju ir itempiu kreives.

Temperature Loads

To large span spatial structures, the displacements and internal forces caused by temperature loads and support settlements cannot be ignored. Beijing Jiangtai winter garden mainly consists of reticulated shell and glass curtain wall. The reticulated shell is composed of 9 spatial arches and other common frames, thus it can be seen as arch-reticulated shell hybrid structure. The two ends of the arches are supported at the top of steel columns and concrete walls separately. The glass curtain wall is fixed to vertical cables. This paper chose eight load cases including temperature loads and support settlements, and used ANSYS to analyze static responses of the structure under such load combinations. The comparative results showed that temperature loads had more effect on the structure’s load bearing capacity than support settlements. And the superiority of hybrid structures was fully embodied in the conclusions of this paper.

Polyethylene Fibre

The load-bearing capacity and fracture pattern of direct inlay-retained FRC FDPs with two different cross-sectional designs of the ponticwere tested. The aim of the study was to evaluate a new fibre disposition. Two types of composites, Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative and Filtek Z250 (3M/ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA), and one braided polyethylene fibre, Construct (Kerr, USA) were used. The results of the study suggested that the new tested disposition of the fibres prevented in some extend the delamination of the composite on buccal and facial sides of the pontic and increased the load-bearing capacity of the bridges.
