Generally, the buckling of thin-walled structures has studied for rectangular sections or circular sections. Rectangular sections have small stiffness and circular sections have large stiffness when they are compared with rectangular sections for local buckling. But both of them have similar stiffness to column buckling. Therefore in this paper, we are going to analyze the local buckling for the box section with rounded comer and compare with rectangular section. Also we confirm that the rounded comer section has larger local buckling strength than rectangular section.

In an experimental and analytical study on the structural behavior of slender circular steel-concrete composite columns, eleven specimens were tested to investigate the effects of three ways to apply a load to a column. The load was applied eccentrically to the concrete section, to the steel section or to the entire section. Three-dimensional nonlinear finite element models were established and verified with the experimental results. The analytical models were also used to study how the behavior of the column was influenced by the bond strength between the steel tube and the concrete core and the by confinement of the concrete core offered by the steel tube. The results obtained from the tests and the finite element analyses showed that the behavior of the column was greatly influenced by the method used to apply a load to the column section. When relying on just the natural bond, full composite action was achieved only when the load was applied to the entire section of the column. Furthermore, because of the slenderness effects the columns did not exhibit the beneficial effects of composite behavior in terms of increased concrete strength due to the confinement.

Girdling underpinning joints are key areas of concern for the pier-cutting bridge-lifting process. In this study, five specimens of an underpinning joint were prepared by varying the cross-sectional shape of the respective column, the process used to treat the beam-column interface (BCI), and the casting process. These specimens were subsequently analyzed through static failure tests. The BCI was found to be the weakest area of the joint, and the specimens containing a BCI underwent punching shear failure. The top of the girdling beam (GB) was subjected to a circumferential tensile force during slippage failure. Compared to the specimens with a smooth BCI, the specimens subjected to chiseling exhibited more pronounced circumferential compression at the BCI, which in turn considerably increased the shear capacity of the BCI and the ductility of the structure. The GB for the specimens containing a column with a circular cross-section exhibited better shear mechanical properties than the GB of other specimens. The BCI in specimens containing a column with a circular cross-section was more ductile during failure than that in specimens containing a column with a square cross-section.

해양환경에서 파랑-구조물 상호작용의 정확한 예측은 극한 환경조건에 노출 된 고정식 및 부유식 해양구조물의 안전성과 설계비용 효율성에 있어서 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 규칙파 와 원형 기둥의 파랑-구조물 상호작용을 해석하였다. 3차원 이상유동(two-phase flow)을 해석하기 위해 오픈소스 전산유체역학 라이브러리인 OpenFOAM을 사용하였다. 수치파랑수조에서 파를 생성 및 흡수하기 위해 소스항을 이용한 relaxation method를 적용하였다. 수치기법을 검증하기 위해 심해조건에서 생성된 2차 stokes 파형은 이론적인 해와 비교하였다. 검증과정을 통해 파장과 진폭에 대한 길이 및 높이 방향의 격자크기를 정하였다. 원형 기둥에 작용하는 파랑 하중과 wave run-up을 계산하고 기존의 실험 데이터와 비교하였다.

본 연구에서는 PET섬유(혼입율: 0.05vol.%)로 보강된 60MPa 고강도 콘크리트의 내화특성을 검토하였다. 특히 원형 기둥에 대한 내화실험 결과가 아직까지 없기 때문에 콘크리트 원형기둥을 대상으로 내화시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 PET섬유가 고강도 콘크리트 폭렬 제어에 효과가 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 하지만 피복두께 30mm 시험체에서는 주철근 온도규정을 만족시키지 못하는 것으로 나타났고 피복두께 40mm 시험체에서는 주철근 온도규정을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 내화성능을 만족하기 위해서는 40mm 이상의 피복두께가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Concrete Filled Fibre Reinforced Polymer Tube (CFFT) for new columns construction has attracted significant research attention in recent years. The CFFT acts as a formwork for new columns and a barrier to corrosion accelerating agents. It significantly increases both the strength capacity (Strength enhancement ratio) and the ductility (Strain enhancement ratio) of reinforced concrete columns. In this study, based on predefined selection criteria, experimental investigation results of 134 circular CFFT columns under axial compression have been compiled and analysed from 599 CFFT specimens available in the literature. It has been observed that actual confinement ratio (expressed as a function of material properties of fibres, diameter of CFFT and compressive strength of concrete) has significant influence on the strength and ductility of circular CFFT columns. Design oriented models have been proposed to compute the strength and strain enhancement ratios of circular CFFT columns. The proposed strength and strain enhancement ratio models have significantly reduced Average Absolute Error (AAE), Mean Square Error (MSE), Relative Standard Error of Estimate (RSEE) and Standard Deviation (SD) as compared to other available strength and strain enhancement ratios of circular CFFT column models. The predictions of the proposed strength and strain enhancement ratio models match well with the experimental strength and strain enhancement ratios investigation results in the compiled database.

A new concrete confinement model is developed to predict the axial load versus displacement behavior of circular columns under concentric axial load. The new confinement model is proposed for concrete filled steel tube columns as well as circular reinforced concrete columns with steel tube jacketing. Existing confinement models were evaluated and improved using available experimental data from different sets of columns tested under similar loading conditions. The proposed model is based on commonly used confinement models with an emphasis on modifying the effective confining pressure coefficient utilizing the strength of the unconfined concrete and the steel tube, the length of the column, and the thickness of the steel tube. The proposed model predicts the ultimate axial strength and the corresponding strain with an acceptable degree of accuracy while also highlighting the importance of the manner in which the steel tube is used.

The use of composite members to improve the compressive strength of steel structure is a common practice these days and its efficiency has already been proved by several researches and experiments. The result of concrete filled circular tubular(CFCT) stub column tests is introduced in this paper. The main parameter of this test is the ratio of diameter to thickness of circular hollow section. From the test results, the effect of concrete filled in steel tube on the ultimate strength, the deformation capacity and initial stiffness are discussed. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect of various parameters and evaluate the compressive strength of confined concrete. It would contribute to a better understanding of CFT structure, further laboratory experimentations are needed for better accurate estimation on its effect.

This paper presents results from an analytical investigation of the behavior of steel reinforced concrete circular column sections with additional Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (GFRP) bars. The primary application of this composite section is to relocate the plastic hinge region from the column-footing joint where repair is difficult and expensive. Mainly, the study focuses on the development of the full nominal moment-axial load (M-P) interaction diagrams for hybrid concrete sections, reinforced with steel bars as primary reinforcement, and GFRP as auxiliary control bars. A large parametric study of circular steel reinforced concrete members were undertaken using a purpose-built MATLAB(c) code. The parameters considered were amount, location, dimensions and mechanical properties of steel, GFRP and concrete. The results indicate that the plastic hinge was indeed shifted to a less critical and congested region, thus facilitating cost-effective repair. Moreover, the reinforced concrete steel-GFRP section exhibited high strength and good ductility.

This paper describes the experimental and numerical investigations of octagonal Concrete-Filled Double Skinned Steel Tube (CFDST) short columns under the influence of various internal sizes of the circular and square steel tubes, with constant cross-sectional dimensions of the external octagonal steel tube under concentric loading. The non-linear finite element analysis of octagonal CFDST columns was executed using the ABAQUS to forecast and compare the axial compression behavior influenced by the various sizes of internal circular and square steel tubes. The study shows that the axial compressive strength and ductility of octagonal CFDST columns were significantly influenced by various internal dimensions of the circular and square steel tubes with the strengths of constituent materials.
