Based on the unified strength theory, the bearing capacity of the concrete filled square steel tube short columns with inner CFRP circular tube under eccentric compression was analyzed. The restriction effect of the inner CFRP circular tube upon the core concrete, strength reduction factor for eccentricity ratio and the equivalent reduction factor, which considered the ratio of thickness to side effect, were taken into account in the theoretical analysis. The axial bearing capacity formula of the square steel tube short columns filled with inner CFRP circular tube was deduced. By introducing the strength reduction factor for eccentricity ratio, the eccentric bearing capacity formula on the basis of the axial bearing capacity formula was obtained. Parametric studies were carried out to evaluate the effects of intermediate principal stress, different CFRP deployment ratios, eccentricity ratios and the tension-compression ratio on the eccentric bearing capacity of the column. The formula was verified by the comparison of the theoretical results with the experimental data. The results show that inner CFRP circular tube can effectively restrain the core concrete.

Through the axial compression tests of two ordinary concrete-filled square steel tubular(CFSST) short columns and six composite CFSST short columns, the influence laws of section types, confinement coefficient, steel ratio and concrete strength on the mechanical behavior of the CFSST short columns were studied. The results show that in CFSST columns, the change of steel tube’s section form can improve effectively the cooperative work ability between the steel tube and core concrete, enhance the restraint effect of the steel tube on the core concrete, delay or inhibit the development of inclined cracks in the core concrete, increase the ductility and improve significantly the ultimate bearing capacity when the steel ratio or confinement coefficient is close to each other. With the increment of the confinement coefficient and steel ratio, the bearing capacity and ductility improve.

Concrete-filled rectangular steel tube four sides restraint effect on the core concrete was weaker than the corner, which made the effect not significant. The paper studied a new kind of stiffening rib –PBL stiffener to strengthen restraint effect of concrete-filled rectangular steel tube , and evaluated its advantages compared with other stiffening ribs. 9 PBL stiffened concrete-filled rectangular steel tube columns under axial compressive load were tested. It also collected the test with other stiffened rids, such as straight ribs, binding bars, knee brace, steel reinforcement cage, steel bar stiffeners, saw tooth shaped stiffeners, stitching straight stiffeners and no rib concrete filled rectangular steel tube to compare. It evaluated increasing coefficient of bearing capacity by stiffening ribs. The results showed that: the PBL stiffeners and binding bar of concrete-filled rectangular steel tube bearing capacity was greater than other reinforcement measures by more than 20%; PBL stiffener could be a new prominent type of stiffener because of its excellent mechanical performance and simple construction.

Based on unified strength theory, the mechanical behavior of core-concrete of concrete-filled square steel tubular stub columns was analyzed. Through controlling the constraint effect between square steel tube and core-concrete by width-thickness ratio, the ultimate bearing capacity formula for concrete-filled square steel tubular stub columns under axial compression was proposed, and the influencing factors of which was also discussed. The rationality of proposed formula was proved from the comparison of the analytical results obtained in this paper and experimental data.

In order to study the axial compression performance of the T-shaped multi-cavity concrete-filled steel tube shear wall, first, three specimens were designed to perform the axial compression test. Then three-dimensional finite element analysis by the ABAQUS software was used to obtain the axial bearing capacity of the shear wall with different parameters. According to the results of the finite element model, the computational diagram in the limit state was obtained. The diagram was simplified into the core concrete in the non-enhanced area that was not constrained by the steel tube and the core concrete in the enhanced area that was uniformly constrained by the steel tube. Finally, a new practical equation for calculating the axial bearing capacity of a multi-cavity concrete-filled steel tubular shear wall was deduced and proposed based on the theory of ultimate equilibrium. The calculation results of the proposed equation were in good agreement with the finite element results, and the proposed equation can be used in practical engineering design.

In the present study, an experimental research was conducted on square steel tube confined steel reinforced concrete column under eccentric load. The major parameters of the specimens included slenderness ratio, eccentricity ratio, and structural steel reinforced ratio. According to the tested results, the eccentricity ratio, from 0 to 0.55, significantly affects the structural bearing capacity. The slenderness ratio, from 3 to 8, and steel reinforced ratio, from 0.3 to 0.41, slightly affect the capacity. Furthermore, a numerical analysis program was developed, and the calculated results are well consistent with the experimental results. Also, the theoretical formula for eccentrically loaded columns was proposed based on numerical results.

At present, the relevant researches of Glulam columns in China are mainly restricted to short columns. In order to study the mechanical properties of long columns under axial loading, an experimental study on five different slenderness ratios of Larch Glulam columns was carried out. With slenderness ratio changing, the variations of experimental data such as axial strain, lateral deflection at mid-height, ultimate bearing capacity, and peak strain were comparatively analyzed. The failure pattern and failure mechanism of long columns were discussed. The results indicate that the ultimate bearing capacity of Larch Glulam columns gradually decreases as the slenderness radio increases and the failure mode is gradually converted from strength failure to instability failure. The ultimate load reduction factor is obtained by regression analysis based on the experiment results of Larch Glulam short columns. The basis for design and application of Larch Glulam columns are provided.

The load carrying capacity and failure mechanism of 8 square columns strengthened with high-performance ferrocement laminate (HPFL) and bonded steel plates (BSP) were analyzed on the basis of experiments on the axial compression performance of these columns. Results show that the reinforcing layer worked together with the original columns as a whole, and the load-bearing capacity significantly increased. When failure of the strengthened column occurred, the mortar and concrete were crushed and bulged outward in the middle of the columns, the angle bars and longitudinal steel bars buckled, and some stirrups were pulled out. The chamfering of angle bar momentously affected the primary damage of steel strand. The values of the strength reduction factor and pressure effective utilization coefficient of the mortar were suggested. Based on the experiments and existing tests of 35 columns strengthened with HPFL, equations for the axial compression bearing capacity were proposed and all calculation results agreed well with testing results. Therefore, the calculation method could be used in the capacity design of axial compression strengthened columns.
