This paper studies the working mechanism, ductility, and ultimate load bearing capacity of the composite columns through axial load bearing capacity experiments on eight steel skeleton-steel pipes reinforced composite concrete columns. The results show that the collaborative work between the steel pipe, steel skeleton and concrete can effectively improve the bearing capacity of the column, delay or inhibit the spread of shear diagonal cracks in the concrete and improve the ductility of the column. In addition, the finite element software ANSYS is used to digitally simulate the whole process of axial pressure test, and the resulting load-displacement curves and experimental curves agree fairly well.

Combining with load bearing capacity tests, the laminated glass simply supported on four sides subjected to bending is analyzed using the finite element software ANSYS. Based on the theoretical and experimental deflection results, the accurate calculation model is established. In order to calculate the deflection of laminated glass subjected to short-time loading such as wind load based on different codes, the equivalent thickness of laminated glass based on Chinese code 2003 and European code is calculated, respectively. Finally, on the basis of many finite element analyses, load bearing capacity tests and code values, the formulas for calculating maximum deflectiont of four-sides supported laminated glass is revised in “Technical code for glass curtain wall engineering” (China) and corresponding correction coefficient is given.

In order to study the performance of lightweight energy-saving composite floor, the finite element models of composite floor were established, which was based on the composite floor specimens test research. The finite element models were verified rationally and correctly in the paper, through compared with the composite floor test results. The finite element model can be used to analyze the load-bearing capacity of composite floor. Various influencing factors of composite floor with simply supported end were analyzed, such as the span of self-tapping screw, the diameter of self-tapping screw, the strength of thin panel and the elastic modulus of thin panel, etc. The results show that the load-bearing capacity of composite floor increases with the increase of the number of self-tapping screw, the diameter of self-tapping screw, the strength of thin panel and the elastic modulus of thin panel, etc. The load-bearing capacity calculate formula of composite floor was proposed.

Many methods have been developed in order to study the impact behavior of solids and structures. Two common methods are finite element and experimental method. The nonlinear finite element method is one the most effective methods of predicting the behavior of RC beams from zero-load to failure and its fracture, yield and ultimate strengths. The advantage of this method is its ability to make this prediction for all sections of the assessed RC beam and all stages of loading. This paper compares the experimental results obtained for a RC frame with the numerical results calculated by ABAQUS software, and plots both sets of results as hysteresis–displacement diagrams. This comparison shows that the numerical FEM implemented via ABAQUS software produce valid and reliable results for load bearing capacity of RC frames subjected to cyclic loads, and therefore has significant cost and time efficiency advantages over the alternative approach

Loading tests of triple glazed facade panels with dimensions of 1.5 x 2.64 m were carried out. The purpose of the tests was to examine mechanical resistance of the glass panes, namely the deformations caused by a local load, to determine degree of interaction between the panes of triple glazing exposed to the loading action and to prove the load bearing capacity of the panels. This experimental investigations were accompanied by finite element analysis.

Prestressed concrete-filled square steel tube truss is the kind of truss whose upper chords and lower chords are respectively concrete-filled square steel tube and prestressed square steel tube. Four truss models as square steel tube truss, concrete-filled square steel tube truss, prestressed square steel tube truss and prestressed concrete-filled square steel tube truss were analysed by ANSYS, each of those truss models’ span has three variations. The result shows that the bar sections’ strength of square steel tube truss and concrete-filled square steel tube truss are far from reaching their design strength when the allowable values of deflection has reachedl//400. Unlike the cases described above, when the bar sections’ strength of prestressed square steel tube truss and prestressed concrete-filled square steel tube truss has reached their design strength, their load-bearing capacity is 1 or 1.5 times higher than those cases above and their deflection has not reached the allowable values.

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.

This article investigates the behaviour of slender concrete-filled steel tube square columns strengthened by concrete-filled steel tube jacketing. The columns were realised by placing a square outer steel tube around the original slender concrete-filled steel tube column and pouring strengthening concrete into the gap between the inner and outer steel tubes. Three concrete-filled steel tube square columns and seven retrofitted columns ranging from 1200 to 2000 mm were tested to failure under axial compression. The experimental parameters included three length-to-width ( L/ B1) ratios, three width-to-thickness ( B1/ t1) ratios and three strengths of concrete jacket (C50-grade, C60-grade and C70-grade). Experimentally, the retrofitted columns failed in a similar manner to traditional slender concrete-filled steel tube columns. After strengthening, the retrofitted columns benefitted greatly from the component materials, with their load-bearing capacity and ductility notably enhanced. These enhancements were mainly brought about by sectional enlargement and good confinement of concrete. A finite element model was developed using ABAQUS to better understand the axial behaviour of the retrofitted specimens. A parametric study was conducted, with parameters including the length of the column, thickness of the outer steel tube, strength of the concrete jacket, yield strength of the outer steel tube, thickness of the inner steel tube and strength of the inner concrete. Furthermore, the finite element model was adopted to study the behaviour of rust-damaged and post-fire slender concrete-filled steel tube square columns strengthened by square concrete-filled steel tube jacketing. A modified formula was proposed to predict the load-bearing capacity of retrofitted specimens, and the numerical results agreed well with the experiments and the finite element results of undamaged, rust-damaged and post-fire specimens. It could be used as a reference for practical application.
