This paper aims to explore the mechanical behavior and moment-rotation model of blind bolted joints between concrete-filled double skin steel tubular columns and steel-concrete composite beams. For this type of joint, the inner tube and sandwiched concrete were additionally identified as basic components compared with CFST blind bolted joint. A modified moment-rotation model for this type of connection was developed, of which the compatibility condition and mechanical equilibrium were employed to determine the internal forces of basic components and neutral axis. Following this, load transfer mechanism among the inner tube, sandwiched concrete and outer tube was discussed to assert the action area of the components. Subsequently, assembly processes of basic coefficients in terms of their stiffness and resistances based on the component method by simplifying them as assemblages of springs in series or in parallel. Finally, an experimental investigation on four substructure joints with CFDST columns for validation purposes was carried out to capture the connection details. The predicted results derived from the mechanical models coincided well with the experimental results. It is demonstrated that the proposed mechanical model is capable of evaluating the complete moment-rotation relationships of blind bolted CFDST column composite connections.

In this paper a novel mathematical model and its analytical solution of global buckling behaviour of slender elastic concrete-filled double-skin tubular (CFDST) columns with finite compliance between the steel tubes and a sandwiched concrete core is derived for the first time. The model is capable of investigating the influence of various basic parameters on critical buckling loads of CFDST columns. It is shown that the elastic buckling load of circular and slender CFDST columns is independent on longitudinal contact stiffness, but, on the other hand, it can be considerably dependent on circumferential contact stiffness. The increasing of the circumferential contact stiffness increases the critical buckling load. Furthermore, it is shown that analytical results can agree well with the experimental and numerical results if the calibrated values of circumferential contact stiffness are used in the calculations. Moreover, it is shown that the contact between the steel tubes and a sandwiched concrete core of tested large-scale CFDST columns used in the comparison is relatively weak. Finally, the proposed analytical results can be used as a benchmark solution.

The paper makes the experimental and finite-element-analysis investigation on the seismic behavior of the rebar-penetrated joint between gangue concrete filled steel tubular column and reinforced gangue concrete beam under low cyclic reversed loading. Two specimens are designed and conducted for the experiment to study the seismic behavior of the rebar-penetrated joint under cyclic loading. Then, finite element analysis models of the rebar-penetrated joint are developed using ABAQUS 6.10 to serve as the complement of the experiment and further analyze the seismic behavior of the rebar-penetrated joint. Finite element analysis models are also verified by the experimental results. Finally, the hysteretic performance, the bearing capacity, the strength degradation, the rigidity degradation, the ductility and the energy dissipation of the rebar-penetrated joint are evaluated in detail to investigate the seismic behavior of the rebar-penetrated joint through experimental results and finite element analysis results. The research demonstrates that the rebar-penetrated joint between gangue concrete filled steel tubular column and reinforced gangue concrete beam, with full and spindle-shaped load-displacement hysteretic curves, shows generally the high ductility and the outstanding energy-dissipation capacity. As a result, the rebar-penetrated joint exhibits the excellent seismic performance and meets the earthquake-resistant requirements of the codes in China. The research provides some references and suggestions for the application of the rebar-penetrated joint in the projects.

A new type of moment-resisting bolted connection was developed for use in composite steel- concrete construction to connect composite open section steel beams to concrete filled steel square tubular columns. The connection was made possible using anchored blind bolts along with two through bolts. It was designed to act compositely with the in-situ reinforced concrete slab to achieve an enhanced stiffness and strength. The developed connection was incorporated in the design of a medium rise (five storey) commercial building which was located in low to medium seismicity regions. The lateral load resisting system for the design building consisted of moment resisting frames in two directions. A major full scale test on a sub-assembly of a perimeter moment-resisting frame of the model building was conducted to study the system behaviour incorporating the proposed connection. The behaviour of the proposed connection and its interaction with the floor slab under cyclic loading representing the earthquake events with return periods of 500 years and 2500 years was investigated. The proposed connection was categorized as semi rigid for unbraced frames based on the classification method presented in Eurocode 3. Furthermore, the proposed connection, composite with the floor slab, successfully provided adequate lateral load resistance for the model building.

강관에 콘크리트를 충전하는 경우, 콘크리트 충전강관 기둥은 뛰어난 내력과 변형성능을 발휘한다. 그리고 콘크리트의 축열효과에 의해서 일정시간은 내화피복 없이도 내력을 유지할 수 있다. 화재발생동안 콘크리트 충전강관 기둥의 거동을 알아보고자 강관과 콘크리트의 온도에 따른 특성치 변화를 가정하고 온도 해석 및 축력-모멘트관계에 대한 수치해석을 수행하여 시간변화에 따른 변수별로 비교평가하였다. 온도에 따른 특성치는 기존문헌의 데이터를 이용하였으며 온도해석은 범용 해석프로그램인 ANSYS로 유한요소해석을 하였고 이를 바탕으로 내력에 대한 수치해석을 수행하였다.

In current engineering practice, circular concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns have been used as effective structural components due to their significant structural and economic benefits. To apply these structural components into steel-concrete composite moment resisting frames, increasing number of research into the column-base connections of circular CFST columns have been found. However, most of the previous research focused on the strength, rigidity and seismic resisting performance of the circular CFST column-base connections. The present paper attempts to investigate the demountability of bolted circular CFST column-base connections using the finite element method. The developed finite element models take into account the effects of material and geometric nonlinearities; the accuracy of proposed models is validated through comparison against independent experimental results. The mechanical performance of CFST column-base connections with both permanent and demountable design details are compared with the developed finite element models. Parametric studies are further carried out to examine the effects of design parameters on the behaviour of demountable circular CFST column-base connections. Moreover, the initial stiffness and moment capacity of such demountable connections are compared with the existing codes of practice. The comparison results indicate that an improved prediction method of the initial stiffness for these connections should be developed.

본 논문은 중심축하중을 받는 콘크리트충전 각형강관 단주의 거동에 관한 연구이다. 총 11개의 실험체가 실험되었고, 실험의 변수는 강관의 폭/두께비와 강재의 항복 응력도에 대한 콘크리트의 압축강도비(응력도비)이다. 폭/두께비의 범위는 20.22에서 91.75이고 응력도비는 0.068에서 0.0955이다. 본 실험의 변수범위를 초과하는 기존의 실험결과를 수집하고 변수의 범위를 확장하여, 각각의 변수가 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 또한, Hajjar가 제안한 다항식의 모델을 수정하여 콘크리트충전 각형강관 단주의 내력식을 제안하였고.

구조물의 기둥은 층에 따라 받는 내력이 상이함에도 시공의 오차를 줄이고 구조설계의 편의를 위해 상부층부터 하부층의 기둥단면은 동일하게 설계되고 있다. 그럼에도 불가피하게 상하부의 기둥의 단면이 상이하는 경우가 발생된다. 예를들어 초고층 구조물 또는 증축 및 보수에 의해 기둥을 보강할 경우이다. 이렇듯. 선 기둥과 후 피복이 되는 기둥을 피복충전형 콘크리트 충전기둥이라 할 때, 가력조건이 다르므로 재하상태를 나뉘어 구조적 안정성을 확인할 필요가 있다. 그럼에도 국내외적으로 가력조건에 따른 합성기둥에 대한 내력과 변형연구는 전무한 상태에 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구조실험을 통해 가력조건 및 콘크리트 강도, 피복두께 변화에 의한 피복충전형 콘크리트 각형 기둥의 내력과 거동을 분석하였다.
