In this study, circular sectional concrete-filled tube(CFT) column-to-foundation connections were numerically investigated in order to improve their structural details. A inner reinforced specimen with high-tension bolts and inner deformed bars was adopted from a previous experimental study to make the numerical model. The validity of the numerical method was verified through comparing the experimental results with the analysis's ones. In order to optimize design variables about the inner reinforced model, a number of numerical analyses were conducted for various variables. Finally, this study suggested the optimum variables about the reinforced circular sectional CFT column-to-foundation connections.

A concrete filled square steel tube (CFT) is composed of the external steel material, which its strength is reduced in fire due to sudden temperature increase, and the internal concrete with high thermal capacity that can ensure the fire resistance performance of the structure. Therefore, research about the influence factors of the structural performance of CFT column is required in order to apply CFT column to a fire resisting structure, and additional research about influence for each condition is also necessary. Among the influence factors, the boundary condition between column and beam is important structurally, and it is one of the major factors that determine overall fire resisting performance. This study performed a fire experiment under loading in order to analyse the influences of CFT column to the boundary condition. As the results of the experiment, fire resistance time of 106 minutes was ensured for the clamped-end condition but 89 minutes for the hinge-end condition in case of the 360 cross section. And, fire resistance time of 113 minutes was ensured for the clamped-end condition but 78 minutes for the hinge-end condition in case of the 280 cross section. The difference in the fire resistance performance according to changes in the boundary conditions showed a tendency that larger change effect on the fire resistance performance was derived from smaller cross section area.

종래 브레이스시스템은 횡력저항 및 층변위제어에 효율적이며 골조물량 감소에 따른 경제성이 향상되어 일반적인 강구조 횡력저항시스템으로 적용되고 있다. 그러나 압축측에서 항복응력에 도달하기 전 가새의 좌굴이 발생하여 충분한 내력을 발휘하지 못하고, 내력열화형의 이력거동으로 불안정상태가 된다. 좌굴에 의한 내력저하 개선시스템으로 중심재를 구속하여 좌굴방지가 가능한 비좌굴가새는 심재의 항복 이후에도 안정적인 이력특성을 나타내어 종래 브레이스에 비하여 에너지흡수능력이 우수하다. 최근 10년간 미국, 일본 및 대만에서 매우 다양한 형상의 비좌굴가새가 제안되었으나, 기존의 실험연구에서는 그 형상이 매우 제한적인 경향을 보이고 있다. 본 연구에서는 조립형 Precast RC 보강재를 가지는 비좌굴가새를 제작하고 이력특성을 평가하기 위한 부재실험을 수행하였다. 또한 실험결과를 AISC(2005)의 요구조항과 비교하였다.

This paper handles the repairing of deficient square Concrete-Filled Steel-Tube (CFST) beams subject to bending through an experimental and numerical program. Eight square-CFST beams were tested. A 5-mm artificial notch was induced at mid-span of seven beams, four of them were repaired by using CFRP sheets and two were repaired by using GFRP sheets. The beam deflection, strain and ultimate moments were recorded. It was found that providing different cut-off points for the different layers of FRP sheets prohibited failure at termination points due to stress concentrations. Using different lengths of FRP sheets around the notch retarded crack propagation and prevented FRP rupture at the crack position. Finite element analysis was then conducted and the proposed FE model was verified against the recorded experimental data. The influence of various parameters as FRP sheet length, tensile modulus and the number of layers were studied. The moment capacity of damaged square-CFST beams was improved up to 77.6% when repaired by using four layers of CFRP, however, this caused a dramatic decrease in beam deflection. U-wrapping of notched-CFST beam with 0.75 of its length provided a comparable behaviour as wrapping the full length of the beam.

콘크리트가 충전된 각형강관 기둥(CFT)은 외부에 강재가 노출된 형상으로 외측의 강관은 화재시 급격한 온도상승으로 인해 강도가 저하되나, 내부의 콘크리트는 열용량이 큰 재료로써 내화성능을 확보할 수 있는 구조로 구성되어 있다. CFT 기둥을 내화구조로서 적용하기 위해서는 구조적 성능에 영향을 미치는 인자에 대한 연구가 필요하며, 이에 대한 조건별 영향성에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 내화성능에 영향을 주는 주요인자는 콘크리트 압축강도.단면크기.축력비.경계조건이며, 그 중 기둥과 보의 경계조건은 구조적 측면에서 하중지지능력에 영향을 미치므로 내화성능을 지배하는 주요 인자 중에 하나이다. 실험결과 360단면에서는 양단 고정조건에서는 106분의 내화성능이 확보되나 양단 힌지 조건에서는 89분의 내화성능을 확보하는 것으로 나타났다. 280단면에서는 양단 고정조건에서는 113분의 내화성능이 확보되나 양단힌지 조건에서는 78분의 내화성능을 확보하였다.

The paper aims to investigate the mechanical mechanism and seismic effect of stiffeners in blind bolt endplate connection to CFST column. A precise 3D finite element model with considering the cyclic properties of concrete and steel materials was established, and the efficiency was validated through monotonic and cyclic test data. The deforming pattern and the seismic performance of the unstiffened and stiffened blind bolt endplate connections were investigated. Then a parametric analysis was conducted to analyze the contribution of stiffeners and the joint working behaviors with endplate under cyclic load. The joint stiffness classifications were compared and a supplement stiffness classification method was proposed, and the energy dissipation ability of different class connections were compared and discussed. Results indicated that the main deformation pattern of unstiffened blind bolt endplate connections was the local bending of end plate. The vertical stiffeners can effectively alleviate the local bending deformation of end plate. And influence of stiffeners in thin endplate and thick endplate was different. Based on the stiffness of external diaphragm welded connection, a more detailed rigidity classification was proposed which included the pin, semi-rigid, quasi-rigid and rigid connection. Beam was the main energy dissipation source for rigid connection. For the semi-rigid and quasi-rigid connection, the extended endplate, stiffeners and steel beam would all participate in the energy dissipation.

The successful application of the component-based approach - widely used to model structural joints - requires knowledge of the mechanical properties of the constitutive joint components, including an appropriate assembly procedure to derive the joint properties. This paper presents a component-method model for a structural joint component that is located in the tension zone of blind-bolted connections to concrete-filled tubular steel profiles. The model relates to the response of blind-bolts with headed anchors under monotonic loading, and the blind-bolt is termed the "Extended Hollo-bolt". Experimental data is used to develop the model, with the data being collected in a manner such that constitutive models were characterised for the principal elements which contribute to the global deformability of the connector. The model, based on a system of spring elements, incorporates pre-load and deformation from various parts of the blind-bolt: (i) the internal bolt elongation; (ii) the connector's expanding sleeves element; and (iii) the connector's mechanical anchorage element. The characteristics of these elements are determined on the basis of piecewise functions, accounting for basic geometrical and mechanical properties such as the strength of the concrete applied to the tube, the connection clamping length, and the size and class of the blind-bolt's internal bolt. An assembly process is then detailed to establish the model for the elastic and inelastic behaviour of the component. Comparisons of model predictions with experimental data show that the proposed model can predict with sufficient accuracy the response of the component. The model furthers the development of a full and detailed design method for an original connection technology.

The Expo Culture Centre is one of the permanent buildings at the World Expo 2010 in Shanghai, China. The main structure has an oval shape and consists of 36 radial cantilever steel trusses with different lengths and inner frames made of concrete-filled rectangular steel tube members. Tuned mass dampers are used to reduce the excessive vibrations of the sixth floor that are caused by human-induced resonance. A three-dimensional analytical model of the system is developed, and its main characteristics are established. A series of field tests are performed on the structure, and the test results show that the vertical vibration frequencies of most structural cantilevers are between 2.5 Hz and 3.5 Hz, which falls in the range of human-induced vibration. Twelve pairs of tuned mass dampers weighing 115 tons total were installed in the structure to suppress the vibration response of the system. These mass dampers were tuned to the vertical vibration frequency of the structure, which had the highest possibility of excitation. Test data obtained after the installation of the tuned mass dampers are used to evaluate their effectiveness for the reduction of the vibration acceleration. An analytical model of the structure is calibrated according to the measured dynamic characteristics. An analysis of the modified model is performed and the results show that when people walk normally, the structural vibration was low and the tuned mass dampers have no effect, but when people run at the structural vibration frequency, the tuned mass dampers can reduce the floor vibration acceleration by approximately 15%.

CFT 기둥은 시공이 간단하고 경제적이며 구조성능이 우수한 현장타설 매입형 연결 형식이다. 본 연구에서는 모듈러 교각에 적용되는 CFT 기둥-기초 연결부 형식을 제안하고, 실험을 통하여 구조성능을 평가하였다. 기둥-기초 연결부의 구조성능을 평가하기 위해서 기초부 콘크리트에 매입되는 CFT 기둥의 매입깊이를 변수로 총 4개의 실험체를 제작하여 실험을 수행하였다. 준정적 실험결과, 매입깊이가 0.6D인 실험체에서는 낮은 하중단계에서 기초부의 콘파괴로 인하여 상대적으로 낮은 연성능력을 보였다. 그러나 매입깊이가 0.9D 이상인 실험체에서는 기초부의 콘파괴가 방지되고 CFT 기둥 하단부에서 전형적인 휨파괴 거동을 보이며 높은 연성능력을 발휘하였다. 하중-변위 이력곡선, 변위 연성도 및 에너지 소산능력 등을 분석한 결과, 제안된 CFT 기둥-기초 연결부의 매입깊이는 0.9D~1.2D 수준이 내진성능을 발휘하는 합리적인 수준인 것으로 평가되었다.
