두께가 얇은 강관을 사용한 CFT기둥은 강관의 국부좌굴에 대한 구속효과로 내력상승을 기대할 수 있으므로 폭두께비가 작은 강관 CFT기둥에 비해 경제성을 확보할 수 있다. 본 논문의 목적은 각형 CFT기둥에 대한 기존 설계식의 타당성을 입증하고, 내력 증대에 따른 강관 폭두께비의 사용성 한계를 확인하고자 하였다. 실험의 주요변수로는 강관의 폭두께비, 콘크리트 각 주의 높이 및 콘크리트 충전 유무로 하였다. 실험결과, 고강도 콘크리트를 충전한 박판의 각형강관기둥에서 충전콘크리트의 압축내력에 대한 강관의 구속효과가 크게 나타났으며, 비선형 해석에 따르면, 실험결과에 의한 내력은 전체 CFT단주 실험체에서 해석값보다 다소 크게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

CIT 기둥의 장기거동에 관한 기존의 연구과 실험자료에 의하면 크리프 및 건조수축계수는 외부 강관의 구속효과에 의하여 철근콘크리트 기둥보다 작은 값을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 불확실성이 큰 콘크리트 강도와 특정크리프값과 작용하중을 매개변수로 하여 37층 건물의 CFT 기둥에 대한 확률론적 해석을 수행하였으며 매개변수의 특성을 분석하고 CFT 기둥의 축소량 해석값의 예측범위를 정량화하였다. 본 논문에서는 CFT 기둥축소량의 확률론적 해석을 위한 몬테카를로 (Monte Carlo) 기법을 소개하며 다중매개변수를 동시에 적용하여 매개변수의 변동에 따른 축소량의 영향을 분석하고 신뢰지수별 변동폭을 산정하였다.

건축물의 고층화, 대형화에 따라 기둥이 부담해야할 하중이 증대되고, 이로 인한 기둥단면적의 증대에 효율적으로 대처하기 위해 CFT(콘크리트 충전강관)기둥의 형식을 개발하게 되었다. CFT기둥은 이질재료로 구성된 복합구조형식으로, 역학적 거동을 규명하기 위해 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 원형과 각형의 CFT기둥에 있어서 콘크리트 코어와 강관, 두 이질재료간의 접촉면 부착응력에 대한 해석적 연구로서 비선형 해석프로그램인 ABAQUS/Standard Version 5.8을 이용하여 shear-connector의 부착형태 및 위치에 따른 부착응력을 비교하고, 접촉면의 역학적 특성에 대한 개선된 해석기법을 제시하고자 한다.

The structural behaviors of circular concrete filled steel tube (CFT) structures are investigated by nonlinear finite element method. An efficient three-dimensional (3D) degenerated beam element is adopted. Based on those previous studies, a modified stress-strain relationship for confined concrete which introduces the influence of eccentricity on confining stress is presented. Updated Lagrange formulation is used to consider the geometrical nonlinearity induced by large deformation effect. The nonlinear behaviors of CFT structures are investigated, and the accuracy of the proposed constitutive model for confined concrete is mainly concerned. The results demonstrate that the confining effect in CFT elements subjected to combining action of axial force and bending moment is far sophisticated than that in axial loaded columns, and an appropriate evaluation about this effect may be important for nonlinear numerical simulation of CFT structures.

The compressive behavior of special-shaped concrete filled tube (CFT) mega column coupled with multiple cavities is studied by testing six columns subjected to cyclically uniaxial compressive load. The six columns include three pentagonal specimens and three hexagonal specimens. The influence of cavity construction, arrangement of reinforcement, concrete strength on failure feature, bearing capacity, stiffness, and residual deformation is examined. Experimental results show that cavity construction and reinforcements make it possible to form a combined confinement effect to in-filled concrete, and the two groups of special-shaped CFT columns show good elastic-plastic compressive behavior. As there is no axial bearing capacity calculation method currently available in any Code of practice for special-shaped CFT columns, values predicted by normal CFT column formulas in GB50936, CECS254, ACI-318, EC4, AISCI-LRFD, CECS159, and AIJ are compared with tested values. The calculated values are lower than the tested values for most columns, thus the predicted bearing capacity is safe. A reasonable calculation method by dividing concrete into active and inactive confined regions is proposed. And high accuracy shows in estimating special-shaped CFT columns either coupled with multiple cavities or not. In addition, a finite element method (FEM) analysis is conducted and the simulated results match the test well.

A composite member made of concrete-filled steel tubes (CFT columns) has been recognized for its fire resistance due to the thermal mass effect of concrete inside the steel tube, as shown in various studies. In this study, the fire resistance performance of reinforced CFT columns under constant axial load was evaluated using finite element analysis with ABAQUS. For this purpose, the variables including cross-section size, steel tube thickness, and concrete cover thickness were set, and the temperature distribution in the column cross-section exposed to a standard fire was investigated using heat transfer analysis. Ultimately, a P-M interaction curve was obtained by evaluating the overall residual strength of columns, and the fire resistance time was determined by evaluating axial displacement-time responses due to the reduction in load capacity during fire through stress analysis.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the mechanical performances of polygonal concrete-filled circular steel tubular (CFT) stub columns under axial loading through combined experimental and numerical study. A total of 32 specimens were designed to investigate the effect of the concrete strength and steel ratio on the compressive behavior of polygonal CFT stub columns. The ultimate bearing capacity, ductility and confinement effect were analyzed based on the experimental results and the failure modes were discussed in detail. Besides, ABAQUS was adopted to establish the three dimensional FE model. The composite action between the core concrete and steel tube was further discussed and clarified. It was found that the behavior of CFT stub column changes with the change of the cross-section, and the change is continuous. Finally, based on both experimental and numerical results, a unified formula was developed to estimate the ultimate bearing capacity of polygonal CFT stub columns according to the superposition principle with rational simplification. The predicted results showed satisfactory agreement with both experimental and FE results.

A hybrid double skin concrete filled (HDSCF) circular steel tube column is proposed in this study. The yield strength of the outer steel tube is larger than 690MPa and the inner tube has less strength. In order to achieve efficiency with the high strength outer tube, a feasibility study on reducing the thickness of the tube below the specified design codes for CFTs was conducted based on an experimental approach. The experiment also took variables such as thickness of the inner tube, hollow ratio, and strength of concrete into consideration to investigate the behavior of the HDSCF column. In order to estimate the applicability of design equations for CFTs to the HDSCF column, test results from CFT and HDSCF columns with design codes were compared. It was found that the axial compressive performance of the proposed HDSCF column is equivalent to that of the conventional CFT member irrespective of design variables. Furthermore, the design equation for a circular CFT given by EC4 is applicable to estimate the ultimate strength of the HDSCF circular steel tube column.

This paper presents experimental investigations of the fundamental behavior of concrete filled steel tube (CFT) beam-columns under fire loading. A total of thirteen specimens were tested to determine the axial force-moment-curvature-temperature behavior of CFT beam-columns. The experimental approach involved the use of: (a) innovative heating and control equipment to apply thermal loading and (b) digital image correlation with close-range photogrammetry to measure the deformations (e.g., curvature) of the heated region. Each specimen was sequentially subjected to: (i) constant axial loading; (ii) thermal loading in the expected plastic hinge region following the ASTM E119 temperature-time T-t curve; and (iii) monotonically increasing flexural loading. The effects of various parameters on the strength and stiffness of CFT beam-columns were evaluated. The parameters considered were the steel tube width, width-tothickness ratio, concrete strength, maximum surface temperature of the steel tube, and the axial load level on the composite CFT section. The experimental results provide knowledge of the fundamental behavior of composite CFT beam-columns, and can be used to calibrate analytical models or macro finite element models developed for predicting behavior of CFT members and frames under fire loading.
