Modified blind bolts (Hollo-Bolt) and a locally strengthened steel tube column in the panel zone were created to overcome the moment-resisting problem for the bolted connections between concrete-filled hollow section columns and open section beams and to enhance the performance of connections. The cyclic loading was conducted on a total of six modified anchored blind bolted flush end-plate connections to concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns. The key parameters investigated were the tube wall thickness, end-plate thickness, blind bolt anchorage method, and beam section. The failure mode, hysteretic behavior, strength, stiffness, ductility, and energy dissipation capacity of the connections were analyzed and evaluated with all details. The results indicated that connections with modified anchored blind bolts and locally strengthened steel tubes could avoid the premature failure of CFST column and exhibit an improved behavior with a favorable strength, stiffness, and stiffness degradation. The test observations reveal two representative failure modes, and the tube wall thickness and blind bolt anchorage method have a significant effect on the resultant failure mode. Moreover, the use of thin endplate and weak beam can effectively enhance the hysteretic behavior of joints, ductility, and energy dissipation capacity; and the change in anchoring method has little effect on the stiffness. Finite element (FE) analysis models were established for the aforementioned connections. The numerical models were validated against the experimental results and exhibited good agreement. Finally, based on the component method, an initial stiffness calculation method was established for the connections.

Square Steel Tube

The tests on thirteen specimens of casing joints of square steel tube were conducted to investigate the flexural behavior of the joints. And numerical simulation studies on that were carried out by ANSYS/LS-DYNA. On this basis, effects of tube wall thickness, tube edge length, and inserting depth on failure mode, ultimate flexural capacity and deformation of the joints were discussed. The results show that there are two types of failure modes, i.e., inside tube yield failure and outside tube shear failure. Ultimate flexural capacity and rigidity of the joints increased with the inserting depth increasing. The ultimate flexural capacity is proportional to tube shear strength, tube wall thickness, inserting depth, and tube edge length.

The study on tension behavior of casing and dowel joint of square steel tube was carried out by using finite element analysis software ANSYS/LS-DYNA with consideration of geometric nonlinearity, material nonlinearity and contact nonlinearity. On this basis, the effects of inside tube wall thickness, main tube wall thickness, and inserting depth on failure mode, ultimate tensile load and deformation of casing and dowel joint of square steel tube was discussed. The results show that there are three types of failure modes, i.e., bolt failure, inside tube failure and main tube failure, when the joints are subjected to axial tension force. Compare to the joint with the same wall thickness of inside tube and main tube, the reduction of wall thickness of inside tube or main tube will weaken greatly the ultimate tensile load of the joint. The ultimate tensile load of casing and dowel joints is proportional to bolt shear strength, tube wall thickness, inserting depth, and tube edge length. The fruits are useful to the design and application of casing and dowel joints of square steel tube.

Eccentric Compression

FRP-concrete-steel tubular (FCS) composite columns are composed of the external tube, the internal steel tube, and the concrete between both tubes. They have been attracting the attention of many researchers due to their high ductility, lightweight, resistance to corrosion, and easiness of construction. However, there are few studies on FRP-concrete-steel tubular composite columns under eccentric load. To investigate the behavior of composite columns under the eccentric compression, a non-linear analysis program for FCS composite columns was compiled. The program was verified by existing tests, and the influences of eccentricity, FRP tube wall thickness, steel tube wall thickness, steel tube radius, slenderness ratio, and concrete strength grade on the eccentric compression performance were systematically analyzed. The results showed that the calculated results were in good agreement with the experimental results. It showed that the program can accurately reflect the deformation of FCS composite columns under various loads and estimate the ultimate load of FCS composite columns under eccentric compression. The eccentric ultimate load increased with the decrease of eccentricity and slenderness ratio, and with the increase of FRP tube wall thickness, steel tube wall thickness, and concrete strength grade. The ultimate eccentric load decreased with the increase of steel tube radius, but when the steel tube wall thickness reached a certain thickness, the ultimate eccentric load of FCS composite columns increases with the increase of steel tube radius. The conclusion can provide reference for the practical application of the structure.

This paper presents an analytical solution of vertical dynamic response of a concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) due to transient impact loading. Both the concrete and steel are modeled by linear elastic material. The impact load is simulated by a semisinusoidal impulse. Three-dimensional (3D) wave equations those considering the vertical displacement are established. By combining the initial and boundary conditions, the frequency-domain analytical solution of displacement is deduced by Laplace transformation and separation of variables methods. The time-domain dynamic response is then obtained by numerical inverse Fourier transformation (IFT). Numerical examples are presented to verify the validity of the analytical solution developed in this study. The results indicate that the analytical solution proposed in this study shows good consistence with the existing solutions.

The models of Ti clad steel tube sheet and carbon steel tube sheet are established in this paper. By the finite element analysis software ANSYS Workbench, the disciplinarian of stress distribution is investigated under thermal and mechanical loadings of tube sheet. Through the optimization, the effects of base layer, clad layer thickness and tube wall thickness on clad steel tube sheet are obtained. Results show: the overall stress distribution of clad steel tube sheet is more complex than that of carbon steel tube sheet, and the connection surface of base and clad layer presents the phenomenon of stress concentration for clad steel tube sheet. The increase of clad layer or tube wall thickness has an unfavorable effect on the quality of clad steel tube sheet. Through reasonably decreasing thickness of clad layer or tube wall, stress concentration can be improved and performance of clad steel tube sheet can be enhanced. The results provide some reference for the design of clad steel tube sheet.

Based on the parameters of web member section form, and using nonlinear static numerical simulation, this dissertation research on the stressed complex joints. The results of the study show that the abdominal rod for circular steel tubes joint (JD1) is instability failure which is led to the local buckling of compressive bar; the abdominal rod for single angle steel (JD2) or double angle steel (JD3) joint is instability failure because of the local buckling of the joint board. Under the web members and joint boards all fitting their own capacity requirements, JD1 is very easy to make draw bar broken on both sides of the pillar tube wall region, JD2 and JD3 are apt to damage on the weak positions of joint board ends and pillar tube wall joint. In the three forms of web member joints, the best ultimate bearing capacity is JD1 , JD3 is the second and JD2 is minimum.
