The objective of this paper is to investigate the structural behavior of concrete filled steel tubular columns subjected to eccentric load. With experiment and analytical study, the buckling behavior of columns is investigated and compared with each other to the view of main parameters. Appling foreign standards in the experimental results, we suggested new strength formula of concrete-filled steel tubular columns. The parameters are slenderness, eccentric ratio, and concrete filled or not. The experiment are carried out by simple loading.

Concrete filled tubular(CFT) members have many structural and constructional advantages. The prefabrication of CFT members can be thought an idea for the good qualify control of concrete. The objective of this study is to suggest the construction method of prefab CFT beam-columns. Tests are performed to understand their structural behaviors. The opening space between prefab CFT members and the size of tubular members are the parameters of this study. The results of this study will be based on the suggestion of prefab CFT.

The objective of this paper is to suggest formula of Concrete Filled Tube Beam-Column members maximum strength by using of numerical analysis and tests. The numerical analysis results are compared with test results for evaluating numerical analysis method. The formula of Limit State Design of Architectural Institute of KOREA is used for basic form of suggestion formula. In order to suggest formula, two methods are used. One is to use the coefficient, and the other is to use the amplified factor of material strength. The formula by two methods are compared with numerical analysis results.

Concrete-filled steel columns consist of circular, square or rectangular hollow sections filled concrete. Much research has studied for the behavior of concrete-filled steel structures. The advantages from structural point of view are the triaxial confinement of the concrete within the section, and the fire resistance of the column which largely depends on the residual capacity of the concrete core. The axial capacity of a concrete-filled rectangular or circular section is enhanced by the confining effect of the steel section on the concrete which depends in the magnitude on the shape of the section and the length of the column. Buckling tends to reduce the benefit of confinement on the squash load as the column slenderness increases. In circular sections it is possible to develop the cylinder strength of the concrete. When compare with reinforced concrete columns, the concrete-filled composite column possesses much better strength and ductility in shear and generally in flexure also. Many researches are being conducted about concrete filled steel column to get these advantages in building design. In this paper it is provided to the basic experimental study of compression behavior of the circular and rectangular tubular steel pipe filled with concrete.

The CFT columns used in thin-walled steel tubes can be more economical, because it was expected the increase of strength by restriction for the local buckling of steel tubes. The purpose of this paper is to review feasibility of existing design formula and verify the applicability limit of width-to-thickness ratio for increasing the strength of rectangular CFT columns. As the main parameters of experiments, width-to-thickness ratios of steel tube, height of rectangular concrete columns, and concrete filled or not. The strength of concrete are selected to 90MPa. From the test results, the confinement effect of steel tube on the compressive strength of infilled concrete is remarkably appeared in the thin-walled rectangular steel tube columns infilled wih high strength concrete. By the non-linear analysis, the axial strength from experiment result was given higher than analysis result for all CFT stub columns.

최근 국내에 60층을 초과하는 초고층 구조물들이 많이 건설되고 있으며, 콘크리트 품질의 향상 특히 콘크리트의 고강도화에 힘입어 이를 이용한 철근 콘크리트 고층 구조물들이 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 이들 초고층, 초대형 구조물을 지지할 수 있는 고축력, 고연성의 기둥에 대한 설계 및 시공이 요구되고 있으며, 이에 가장 적합한 구조요소라 할 수 있는 콘크리트 충전 강관기둥(Concrete Filled Steel Tube Columns : CFT Columns)의 설계 및 시공에 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이러한 콘크리트 충전 강관기둥은 콘크리트가 강관에 의해 둘러싸여지기 때문에 축하중 저항 능력이 증가되는 장점과 동일한 단면으로 H형강을 사용한 순수 철골조 H형강 기둥의 강축(strong axis)과 약축(weak axis) 문제해결과 동시에 강성 (stiffness)을 증가시킬 수 있으며, 내화 성능이 향상되고 거푸집 대체 재료로 사용되는 등 여러 가지 장점을 지니고 있다. 한편 충전 강관기둥에 작용하는 축하중은 대부분 콘크리트가 부담하게 되는데 이러한 충전강관 기둥의 장점을 극대화하기 위해서는 보통강도 콘크리트보다는 압축강도 및 탄성계수가 큰 고강도 콘크리트의 사용은 불가피하게 된다.(중략)

The purpose of this study is to examine the utility of concretefilled steel tubular column to H-beam connections with tubular stiffener. As a preliminary step. a tensile experiment was undertaken to scrutinize characteristics of the structural behavior that take place between beam flanges and column with tubular stiffener. A total of 4 types of experimental settings were developed as tabular stiffeners are made up 9, 18, and 27 mm of thickness and 50 and 80 mm of height respetively Along with the overall load subsequently the degree of displacement and strain were recorded. Based on the yield line theory results of this of this study were evaluated and further critically reviewed the applicability of the strength formula. This study found that collapse mechanism was emerged on the beam flange as reinforcing tabular stiffeners Complementary studies of this sort, including numerical analyses should be undertaken in order to develope specific design critera.

The objective of this study is to investigate the structural behavior of concrete-filled steel tubular column-H beam connections with exterior stiffeners. As a preliminary test, simple tensile test on the column to H-beam flange connections stiffened were conducted The paramaters of tensile test are the thickness(T=9, 12, 15m) and the width(W=50, 75, 100, 150mm) of exterior stiffeners. The simple tensile test were conducted to 7 kinds of specimens. Estimating the load, displacement, and strain from each kind, results of simple tensile test were compared with results of second test. On the basis of simple tensile test, test on the column to H-km connections stiffened with the sames under monotonic and cyclic load were conducted. Specimens of 5 for the second experiment were made. In analysis, comparing each strengthes and stiffnesses we estimated deformation capacity. Comparing and estimating each yielding strength ratios and maxium-strength ratios on the basis of yield line theory, new strength formula of beam-to-column connections was suggested.

The concrete filled tubular(CFT) columns have many excellent structural properites. such as high compressive strength high ductility and high absorption capacity However the confinement effect and limiting width-thickness ratio of CFT column have not yet been clarified. Therefore. this paper aims to clarify the confinement effect of steel tubes and strength of concrete filled steel tubular columns. And this paper presents results of a probabilistic analysis based on statistical data for strength of concrete filled steel tubular columns which has been tested in Korea for recent 10 years(1991.1~2000.6).
