The Fire Resistance Performance of Concrete Columns With Different Compressive Strength

Four full concrete columns have been created Tested below high temperature for The fire resistance of concrete elements in concrete with particular compressive strengths. The standard concrete with compressive strength values of C25 were made of one of the four specimens, while the rest were made of C35, C60 and C75 respectively, respectively. During simulation of Within the laboratory furnace, the same For the specimens, axial forces were applied. Many experimental outcomes parameters were evaluated in contrast, including temperature changes, Vertical moving, side deflection, fire resistance and Failed properties of the specimen. The results have shown a rise in the compressive strength of the concrete for the concrete columns from the outside up to the inside of the column the same cross section of the lower compressive forces of concrete display better fire resistance efficiency with the same initial axial strength ratio. The C35, C60 and C75 columns' fire resistance is higher than standard concrete columns. The initial and secant rigidity of the columns of Reinforced concrete (RC) has also The percentage decreased dramatically after fire exposure and the temperature increased from 25 to 750 ° C.

Axial Capacity Prediction of Concrete-Filled Steel Tubular Short Members Using Multiple Linear Regression and Artificial Neural Network

The estimation of the ultimate capacity of rectangular or circular shaped steel tubular members filled with concrete, such as columns, beams, and beam-column connections, requires a detailed structural study to be carried out. Therefore, identify the concrete strength the member subjected to axial-load only. Using the Levenberg-Marquardt artificial neural network, this paper investigates the concrete-filled steel tubular (CFT) members axial strength. 201 experimental specimens were collected from the literature to obtain the best results, and a wide range of geometric and material properties of CFT members were included. The proposed design and specimens illustrate the practicality and effectiveness of the chosen CFT column approach to classify real structural results.

Experimental Investigation and Load Capacity of Slender Cold-Formed Lipped Channel Sections with Holes in Compression

The use of cold-formed steel (CFS) channels with circular or rectangular web holes is becoming increasingly popular in building structures. However, such holes can result in sections becoming more susceptible to buckle and display lower load-carrying capacities. This paper presents a total of 42 axial compression tests of CFS lipped channel slender columns with and without circular and rectangular web holes, including different hole sizes and cross sections. The test results show that the axial members with a small ratio of width to thickness were governed by global buckling, while the members with a large ratio of width to thickness were controlled by the interaction of local, distortional, and global buckling. The axial strength decreased maximum by 20.48% and 22.98% for the member with circular holes and rectangular holes, compared to a member without a web hole. Then, a nonlinear elastoplastic finite element model (FEM) was developed, and the analysis results showed good agreement with the test results. The validated FE model was used to conduct a parametric study involving 36 FEMs to investigate the effects of column slenderness, dimension of the hole, and the number of holes on the axial strength of such channels. Furthermore, the formulas to predict the global buckling coefficient and the effective area were modified for such sections with holes by using the verified FEM. Finally, the tests and parametric study results were compared against the design strengths calculated in accordance with the developed method. The comparison results show that the proposed design method closely predicts the axial capacity of CFS channels with circular or rectangular web holes.
