The post-fire behavior of a set of self-stress lightweight aggregate concrete filled steel tubular short columns (noted as SSLC-SSC) after exposure to fire was experimentally studied. Effect of the maximum value of fire response temperatures of the tubes and their geometric parameters on the strength and the other mechanical property of the specimens were especially discussed. The experimental results show that the specimens of SSLC-SSC have higher post-fire bearing capacity and better plastic deformation, there was no obvious descent segment in post-fire load-displacement curves of the most specimens subjected to fire load. It was concluded that the maximum response temperature of specimens has great effect on the post-fire bearing capacity of self-stress concrete-filled steel tubes subjected to fire load, and the value of self-stress corresponding to 10% of dosage of expansive agent has the greatest effect on post-fire bearing capacity of specimens of SSLC-SSC.

The post-fire axial compressive behavior of a set of self-stress lightweight aggregate concrete filled steel tubes (noted as SSLC-ST) after exposure to fire was studied. Effect of the fire temperatures of the specimens and some parameters on the axial compressive behavior of the specimens was especially discussed. The results show that the initial circumferential strain of surface of the steel tubes is much larger than the longitudinal strain of the steel tubes, and the specimens of SSLC-ST have higher post-fire axial compression bearing capacity and better plastic deformation. It was concluded that the local buckling and overall failure of the specimens take place in succession while the specimens are axially loaded, and there are a lot of slip lines with angle of 45oon surface of the steel tubes.

The post-fire behavior of a set of steel fiber reinforced lightweight aggregate concrete filled steel tubular short columns (noted as SFLC-SSC) after exposure to fire was experimentally studied. Effect of the maximum value of fire response temperatures of the tubes and their geometric parameters on the strength and the other mechanical property of the specimens were especially discussed. The experimental results show that the specimens of SFLC-SSC have higher post-fire bearing capacity and better plastic deformation. It was concluded that the maximum response temperature of the specimens has great effect on the post-fire bearing capacity of steel fiber reinforced concrete-filled steel tubes subjected to fire load, and incorporation of 0.5% of volume of steel fiber is best for enhancing the axial compressive bearing capacity of the specimens of SFLC-SSC after exposure to fire.

The post-fire axial compressive behavior of a set of steel fiber reinforced ceramsite concrete filled steel tubular short columns (noted as SFCC-SSC) was experimentally studied. Effect of the maximum value of fire response temperatures of the specimens and some parameters on the axial compression performance of the specimens was especially discussed. The results show that the surface of the steel tubes after fire presented dark red for 700°Cof furnace temperature and orange red for 900°C, and there was no obvious descending segment in post-fire load-displacement curves of the most specimens subjected to fire load. It was concluded that the axial bearing capacity of the specimens aftersuffering the furnace temperature of 900°C is much less than that of the specimens not subjected to fire load, and the volume of steel fiber of 0.5% of has the greatest effect on post-fire bearing capacity of specimens of SFCC-SSC.

To study the fire performance of the profiled sheet-light aggregate concrete composite floor subjected to fire load, study of fire response and post-fire bearing capacity of a profiled sheet-lightweight aggregate concrete composite floor subjected to dead load is carried out. Based on the experimental results, the fire performance and post-fire bearing capacity of the floor after exposure to fire are analyzed. It is shown that the failure form of the profiled sheet-ceramsite concrete composite floor after exposure to fire still exhibits higher bending capacity, and the ultimate value of the equivalent distributed load is up to 30.69kN/m2, which may be used as basis of strengthening and repairing of the profiled sheet-ceramsite concrete composite floor after exposure to fire.

The post-fire behavior of a set of ceramsite concrete filled steel tubes (note as CCST) after exposure to fire are experimentally studied. Effect of the maximum value of fire response temperatures of the tubes and their geometric parameters on the strength and ductility of the specimens were especially discussed. The test results show that the specimens of CCST have higher post-fire bearing capacity and better ductility, there was no obvious descent segment in post-fire load-displacement curves of the most specimens subjected to fire load. It was concluded that the maximum response temperature of specimens has great effect on the post-fire bearing capacity of concrete-filled steel tubes subjected to fire load.

Based on appropriate numerical constitutive model of lightweight aggregate concrete filled steel tubes (LCFST), layered method was adopted to predict the complete moment-curvature curves of LCFST composite section subjected to pure bending. A FORTRAN program for the moment-curvature curves was developed. Applying the layered method, the influences of the significant parameters, such as steel ratio, yield strength of steel and strength of lightweight aggregate concrete on the moment-curvature curves of the composite section subjected to pure bending were discussed. The practical composite flexural stiffness, ultimate moment and practical moment- curvature relationship of LCFST composite section were presented. The predicted results of both layered method and practical moment-curvature relationships of LCFST composite section are in good agreement with the test results from reference. Compared with the layered method, practical calculate method could remove the step of composite section layered and improve the calculation speed while achieving similar results.

The axial compressive mechanical behavior of steel fiber reinforced ceramsite concrete filled steel tubes (noted as SFR-CCST) after exposure to fire are experimentally studied. Effect of furnace temperature, dosage of steel fiber in specimens on the post-fire mechanical performance of the specimens after exposure to fire was especially discussed. The results show that all the specimens of SFR-CCST have higher post-fire bearing capacity and better plastic deformation, and there was no obvious descending segment in the load-strain curves of the most specimens after exposure to fire. It was concluded that the furnace temperature applied to the specimens and dosage of steel fiber in the specimens of SFR-CCST has some effect on the post-fire mechanical performance of the ceramsite concrete-filled steel tubes after exposure to fire, and the dosage of steel fiber of 0.5% has the most effect on the post-fire performance of lightweight aggregate concrete filled steel tubes after exposure to fire.

In order to study the post-fire bearing capacity and performance of the profiled sheet-light aggregate concrete composite floor after exposure to fire load, experimental study of post-fire bearing capacity of a profiled sheet-ceramsite concrete composite floor subjected to dead load, which has no shearing nails, is carried out here. Based on the experimental results, the post-fire bearing capacity of the composite floor after exposure to fire is analyzed. It is shown that the failure form of the profiled sheet-lightweight concrete composite floor after exposure to fire has obvious change compared with the floor not subjected to fire load, and the ultimate value of the equivalent distributed load applied to the top surface of the floor is up to 35 kN/m2, which may be used as basis of strengthening and repairing of the profiled sheet-lightweight aggregate concrete composite floor after exposure to fire.
