The mechanical response of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns subjected to pure compression or uniaxial bending was studied in depth over the last decades. However, the available research results on CFST columns under biaxial bending are still scarce and the lack of experimental tests for this loading situation is evident. At the same time, the design provisions in Eurocode 4 Part 1.1 for verifying the stability of CFST columns under biaxial bending make use of a simplistic interaction curve, which needs to be revised. This paper presents the outcome of a numerical investigation on slender CFST columns subjected to biaxial bending. Eccentricities differing in minor and major axis, as well as varying end moment ratios are considered in the numerical model. A parametric study is conducted for assessing the current design guidelines of EN1994-1-1. Different aspect ratios, member slenderness, reinforcement ratios and load eccentricities are studied, covering both constant and variable bending moment distribution. The numerical results are subsequently compared to the design provisions of EN1994-1- 1, showing that the current interaction equation results overly conservative. An alternative interaction equation is developed by the authors, leading to a more accurate yet conservative proposal.

Exposed-type steel column bases are used widely in low-rise building construction. Numerous researchers have examined methods to identify their stiffness and strength, but those studies have heretofore been restricted to in-plane behaviors. This paper presents an experimental investigation of inelastic behaviors of square hollow section (SHS) steel column bases under biaxial bending. Two types of failure modes are considered : anchor bolt yielding and base plate yielding. Different pinching effects and interaction surfaces for biaxial bending are observed for these two modes during bi-directional quasi-static cyclic loading tests. Differences are elucidated using limit analyses based on a simple analytical model.

C형 및 H형 단면의 구조벽체는 고층 건물에서 횡력저항시스템으로 널리 이용된다. 이러한 이형벽체는 축력과 함께 x축 및 y축에 대한 2방향 휨모멘트를 동시에 받으므로, 안전한 벽체설계를 위해서는 휨-압축 상호작용을 정확히 고려해야 한다. 이 연구에서는, 대칭단면을 갖는 기둥을 위하여 개발된 기존 등하중법을 수정하여, 2방향으로 재하된 C형 및 H형 벽체를 위한 근사설계방법을 제안하였다. 다양한 단면형상을 갖는 이형벽체에 대하여 2방향 모멘트강도를 계산할 수 있는 단면해석 프로그램을 개발하고, 실험결과와 비교를 통하여 프로그램의 정확성을 검증하였다. 또한 개발한 프로그램을 사용한 변수연구를 통하여, C형 및 H형 이형벽체 단면에 대한 2축 상호작용 특성을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, C형 및 H형 이형벽체의 2축 상호작용은 모멘트 방향과 압축력 크기에 의하여 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 변수연구를 통하여 일정한 압축력에서 2축 모멘트강도의 상관관계를 나타내는 정규화된 컨투어 설계식을 제안하였다. 또한 실무에서 쉽게 활용할 수 있도록, 제안된 컨투어 설계식을 사용한 이형벽체 설계절차와 설계예제를 제시하였다.

Studies on the second-order analysis of reinforced concrete columns have been chiefly dealt with symmetric section under uniaxial loading. In practical situations, however, columns are subjected to biaxial loadings. Therefore, for more accurate prediction of the behavior of concrete columns under biaxial loading, the interaction between bending moments of major and minor axes should be considered. Recently Kim & Lee proposed a numerical method of predicting the behavior of concrete columns under biaxial loading. In this paper, to investigate the behavior of concrete columns under biaxial loading and verify the validity of proposed method, a series of test were carried out for sixteen tied reinforced columns with 100${\times}$100mm square and 200${\times}$100mm rectangular sections under various loading conditions. The length of columns was 1,300mm and the concrete strength was 28MPa. The boundary conditions at the both ends were hinged and end eccentricities were equal(400mm). Proposed numerical analyses applied to the test piece were performed to predict behavior of concrete columns with square and rectangular sections under various loading conditions. Test results were also compared with those using the moment magnifier method in ACI code. The test results showed that the moment magnifier method is conservative.

A computerized numerical method is presented for the design and/or the investigation of RC members with general shape and material properties subjected to axial load and biaxial bending moment. Slenderness effects can also be considered with the use of the moment magnification factor. The method is based on the summation of stress result- ants on a small area of the cross section which enables the determination of strength interaction diagrams, load contours and moment-curvature relationships for the general section. Thus the presented program HYCOL can be used as a direct tool for design and/or investigation of RC members with general shape subjected to biaxial bending. The accuracy of program HYCOL is established by comparison with experimental results.

A finite element (FE) model for analyzing slender reinforced high-strength concrete (HSC) columns under biaxial eccentric loading is formulated in terms of the Euler-Bernoulli theory. The cross section of columns is divided into discrete concrete and reinforcing steel fibers so as to account for varied material properties over the section. The interaction between axial and bending fields is introduced in the FE formulation so as to take the large-displacement or P-delta effects into consideration. The proposed model aims to be simple, user-friendly, and capable of simulating the full-range inelastic behavior of reinforced HSC slender columns. The nonlinear model is calibrated against the experimental data for slender column specimens available in the technical literature. By using the proposed model, a numerical study is carried out on pin-ended slender HSC square columns under axial compression and biaxial bending, with investigation variables including the load eccentricity and eccentricity angle. The calibrated model is expected to provide a valuable tool for more efficiently designing HSC columns.

A numerical study using nonlinear finite element analysis is performed to investigate the behavior of isolated reinforced concrete walls subjected to combined axial force and in-plane and out-of-plane bending moments. For a nonlinear finite element analysis, a computer program addressing material and geometric nonlinearities was developed. Through numerical studies, the internal force distribution in the cross-section is idealized, and then a new design method, different from the existing methods based on the plane section hypothesis was developed. According to the proposed method, variations in the interaction curve of the in-plane bending moment and axial force depends on the range of the permissible axial force per unit length, that is determined by a given amount of out-of-plane bending moment. As the out-of-plane bending moment increases, the interaction curve shrinks, indicating a decrease in the ultimate strength. The proposed method is then compared with an existing method, using the plane section hypothesis. Compared with the proposed method, the existing method overestimates the ultimate strength for the walls subjected to low out-of-plane bending moments, while it underestimates the ultimate strength for walls subject to high out-of-plane bending moments. The proposed method can address the out-of-plane local behavior of the individual wall segments that may govern the ultimate strength of the entire wall.

철근콘크리트 기둥의 2계거동 해석을 위한 기존의 연구는 대부분 대칭단면에 1축 휨과 축력이 동시에 작용하는 경우에 한정되어 왔다. 그러나 일반적으로 기둥은 2축 휨과 축력을 동시에 받으며 이때 기둥의 거동을 보다 정확하게 예측하기 위해서는 휨모멘트간의 상호 연관성을 고려하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 휨모멘크간의 상호 연관성을 고려한 보다 일반적인 기둥의 강성행렬을 유도하였으며, 이를 이용하여 2축 휨을 받는 철근콘크리트 기둥의 2계거동 해석방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 해석방법을 이용하여 2축 휨과 축력을 동시에 받는 정사각형과 직사각형 기둥에 대하여 2계거동 해석을 수행하였다. 그리고 다양한 하중조건에 대한 기둥의 극한강도를 평가하고, ACI 설계규준의 모멘트 확대계수법에 의해 계산된 기둥의 극한강도와 해석결과를 비교하였다. 이러한 결과에 의하면 직사각형 기두에서 모멘트 확대계수법에 의한 기둥의 극한강도가 해석결과보다 큰 경우도 있었다. 따라서 직사각형 단면 기둥에 2축 휨과 축력이 동시에 작용하는 경우에는 모멘트 확대계수법을 이용하여 기둥의 극한강도를 평가하면 실제 기둥의 극한강도가 크게 평가될 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.

The application of double-skin composite wall should meet different layout plans. However, most available research focused on the rectangular section with uniform axial compression. In this research, the structural behavior of double-skin composite wall with L section was studied. Due to the unsymmetric geometric characteristics, the considered loading condition combined the axial compression and biaxial bending. Five specimens were designed and tested under eccentric compression. The variables in the test included the width of the web wall, the truss spacing, the thickness of the steel faceplate, and the thickness of the web wall. The test results were discussed in terms of the load-displacement responses, buckling behavior, stiffness, ductility, strength utilization, strain distribution. Two modern codes were employed to predict the interaction between the axial compression and the biaxial bending. The method to calculate the available bending moment along the two directions was proposed. It was found that CECS 159:2004 offers more suitable results than AISC 360.

Tension tests of six half-thickness concrete containment wall elements were conducted as part of a Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KARRI) program. The aim of the KAERI test program is providing a test-verified analytical method for estimating capacities of concrete reactor containment buildings under internal overpressurization from postulated degraded core accidents. The data from the tests reported herein should be useful for benchmarking method that requires modeling of material behavior including concrete cracking and reinforcement/concrete interaction exhibited by the test. Major test variable is the compressive strength of concrete and its effect on the behavior of prestressed concrete panel subjected to biaxial tension.
