This paper presents experimental results on the residual bond-slip behavior of high strength concrete-filled square steel tube (HSCFST) after elevated temperatures. Three parameters were considered in this test: (a) temperature (i.e., $20^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$); (b) concrete strength (i.e., C60, C70, C80); (c) anchorage length (i.e., 250 mm, 400 mm). A total of 17 HSCFST specimens were designed for push-out test after elevated temperatures. The load-slip curves at the loading end and free end were obtained, in addition, the distribution of steel tube strain and the bond stress along the anchorage length were analyzed. Test results show that the shape of load-slip curves at loading ends and free ends are similar. With the temperature constantly increasing, the bond strength of HSCFST increases first and then decreases; furthermore, the bond strength of HSCFCT proportionally increases with the anchoring length growing. Additionally, the higher the temperature is, the smaller and lower the bond damage develops. The energy dissipation capacity enhances with the concrete strength rasing, while, decreases with the temperature growing. What is more, the strain and stress of steel tubes are exponentially distributed, and decrease from the free end to loading end. According to experimental findings, constitutive formula of the bond slip of HSCFST experienced elevated temperatures is proposed, which fills well with test data.

A ICH-CFT colunn(internally confined hollow-concrete filled tube column) has many advantages compare with R.C column and CFT column. For example using a hollow section, it is possible to save material and to reduce self weight of column. Also two steel tubes on both sid of concrete, inner and outter tube, can improve ductility of ICH-CFT column. But study about ICH-CFT section has done only theoretically. Thus although ICH-CFT column has many advantages, ICH-CFT column dosen't use in construction. In this thesis, through out 3-D full modeling using ABAQUS analyze the nonlinear behavaior of ICH-CFT column. And using the analysis result, review the theoretical knowledge.

This paper aims to investigate the axial load behavior and stability strength of square tubed steel-reinforced concrete (TSRC) columns. Unlike concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) column, the outer steel tube of a TSRC column is mainly used to provide confinement to the core concrete. Ten specimens were tested under axial compression, and the main test variables included length-to-width ratio (L/B) of the specimens, width-to-thickness ratio (B/t) of the steel tubes, and with or without stud shear connectors on the steel sections. The failure mode, ultimate strength and load-tube stress response of each specimen were summarized and analyzed. The test results indicated that the axial load carried by square tube due to friction and bond of the interface increased with the increase of L/B ratio, while the confinement effect of tube was just the opposite. Parametric studies were performed through ABAQUS based on the test results, and the feasibility of current design codes has also been examined. Finally, a method for calculating the ultimate strength of this composite column was proposed, in which the slenderness effect on the tube confinement was considered.

내부 구속 중공 CFT(ICH-CFT) 기둥은 콘크리트의 양쪽(중공부와 외부)에 두 개의 강관이 삽입된 형태이다. 외부 강관과 내부 장관은 강관과 중공 부분으로 인하여 좋은 내진 성능과 연성을 발휘하며, 또한 에너지 흡수도 하는 기능을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 본 교각 형태의 실용성을 위한 연구가 필요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 ICH-CFT 기둥의 실용적인 설계를 목적으로, 내진성능에 대한 매개변수 연구를 실시하였다. 매개변수는 교각의 지름과 중공비 그리고 같은 모멘트 성능을 발휘하는 장관의 두께이다. 또한 경제성에 따른 연성도 평가와 CFT기둥과의 비교를 통하여 좀 더 실용적인 평가를 하고자 하였다. 특히, 중공비와 외부강관 두께에 따라 내진성능이 차이를 보였으며, ICH-CFT 교각의 외부강관의 두께에 따른 경제적인 중공비를 제시하였다.

As the excellent mechanical performance and easy construction of concrete filled steel tubes (CFST) composite structure, it has the potential to be used to strengthen RC pier columns. Therefore, tests were conducted on 2 reinforcement concrete (RC) stub columns and 9 RC columns strengthened with circular CFST under axial loading. The test results show that the circular CFST strengthening method is effective since the mean bearing capacity of the RC columns is increased at least 3.69 times and the ductility index is significantly improved more than 30%. One of the reasons for enhancement is obvious confinement provided by steel tube besides the additional bearing capacity supplied by the strengthening materials. From the analysis of the enhancement ratio, the strengthening structure has at least an extra 20% amplification except for taking full advantage of the strength of the strengthening material. Through the analysis of confining stress provided by steel tube and the stress-strain relationship of confined concrete, it is found that the strength of the core concrete can be increased by 21-33% and the ultimate strain can be enhanced to beyond $15,000{\mu}{\varepsilon}$.

이 연구는 새로운 형태의 FRP-콘크리트 합성말뚝인 하이브리드 CFFT(HCFFT)를 개발하는 과정의 일부이다. 이 논문에서는 CFFT와 HCFFT의 압축강도실험을 통하여 구조적 거동을 분석하였다. 압축강도실험에 앞서 PFRP와 FFRP 재료의 역학적 성질을 조사하였다. HCFFT 압축강도실험은 콘크리트 강도와 FFRP의 두께를 변수로 하여 실험을 수행하였다. 그리고, FFRP 두께를 변수로 PFRP를 제외한 CFFT 실험체를 제작하고 실험을 수행하여 HCFFT와 비교 분석하였다. 실험 결과, HCFFT의 압축강도는 CFFT에 비하여 11~47% 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 실험구간내의 필라멘트 와인딩 FRP 보강두께의 증가에 따른 HCFFT의 압축강도는 선형으로 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 실험체와 동일한 조건의 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과는 실험결과에 비하여 모든 시편에서 약간 작은 값을 보였으며, 0.14%에서 17.95%까지의 오차범위 내에 있음을 알 수 있었다.

복합소재는 화학적, 역학적인 면에서 여러 장점을 가지고 있다. 피로 저항성과 화학적 저항성이 높을 뿐 아니라, 비강도, 비강성 등이 높아서 높은 감쇠 특성을 보인다. 항만 구조물에 사용되는 파일은 압축 뿐만 아니라 휨을 받기도 하므로 이에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구는 대구경을 포함하는 콘크리트 충전 유리섬유 복합소재 파일의 압축 거동 혹은 휨-압축 거동을 분석한다. 지름 및 길이가 서로 다른 25개의 실험 파일을 제작하는데, 시편의 복합소재 튜브 내경은 165 mm에서 600 mm에 이르고, 길이는 1,350 mm에서 8,000 mm에 이른다. 수적층 및 필라멘트 와인딩 성형 공법을 모두 사용하여 튜브를 제작하여 적층의 구조가 미치는 차이를 알아보았다. 충전 콘크리트의 강도로는 27 MPa과 40 MPa를 사용하였다. 축방향 및 원주방향의 섬유의 부피비에 변화를 주어 각각의 영향을 분석하였고, 일부 시편에는 나선형 홈을 튜브 안쪽에 성형하여 충전 콘크리트와 튜브 사이의 전단변형을 줄이는데 기여할 수 있는지 분석하였다. 실험결과를 보면, 직포만을 사용하여 수적층 성형 공법으로 파일을 제작하는 것보다 필라멘트 와인딩 성형 공법을 이용하여 제작하는 것이 휨강성을 높이는데 훨씬 유리하다. 나선형 홈을 성형해서 넣더라고 휨강성은 낮은 하중단계에서 부터 지속적으로 감소하는 경향을 보이는 것으로 보아, 충전 콘크리트와 튜브 사이의 전단변형을 완전히 억제하지는 못하는 것으로 판단된다.

In order to investigate the interface debonding defects detection mechanism between steel tube and concrete core of concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs), multi-physical fields coupling finite element models constituted of a surface mounted Piezoceramic Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) actuator, an embedded PZT sensor and a circular cross section of CFST column are established. The stress wave initiation and propagation induced by the PZT actuator under sinusoidal and sweep frequency excitations are simulated with a two dimensional (2D) plain strain analysis and the difference of stress wave fields close to the interface debonding defect and within the cross section of the CFST members without and with debonding defects are compared in time domain. The linearity and stability of the embedded PZT response under sinusoidal signals with different frequencies and amplitudes are validated. The relationship between the amplitudes of stress wave and the measurement distances in a healthy CFST cross section is also studied. Meanwhile, the responses of PZT sensor under both sinusoidal and sweep frequency excitations are compared and the influence of debonding defect depth and length on the output voltage is also illustrated. The results show the output voltage signal amplitude and head wave arriving time are affected significantly by debonding defects. Moreover, the measurement of PZT sensor is sensitive to the initiation of interface debonding defects. Furthermore, wavelet packet analysis on the voltage signal under sweep frequency excitations is carried out and a normalized wavelet packet energy index (NWPEI) is defined to identify the interfacial debonding. The value of NWPEI attenuates with the increase in the dimension of debonding defects. The results help understand the debonding defects detection mechanism for circular CFST members with PZT technique.

The existing CFT columns present the deterioration in confining effect after the yield of steel tube, local buckling and the deterioration in load capacity. If lateral load such as earthquake load is applied to CFT columns, strong shearing force and moment are generated at the lower part of the columns and local buckling appears at the column. In this study, axial compression test and beam-column test were conducted for existing CFT square column specimens and those reinforced with carbon fiber sheets (CFS). The variables for axial compression test were width-thickness ratio and the number of CFS layers and those for beamcolumn test were concrete strength and the number of CFS layers. The results of the compression test showed that local buckling was delayed and maximum load capacity improved slightly as the number of layers increased. The specimens' ductility capacity improved due to the additional confinement by carbon fiber sheets which delayed local buckling. In the beam-column test, maximum load capacity improved slightly as the number of CFS layers increased. However, ductility capacity improved greatly as the increased number of CFS layers delayed the local buckling at the lower part of the columns. It was observed that the CFT structure reinforced with carbon fiber sheets controlled the local buckling at columns and thus improved seismic performance. Consequently, it was deduced that the confinement of CFT columns by carbon fiber sheets suggested in this study would be widely used for reinforcing CFT columns.

This paper deals with a study on ultimate strength behaviour of eccentrically loaded CFT columns with and without shear connectors. Thirty specimens are subjected to experimental investigation under eccentric loading condition. P-M curves are generated for all the test specimens and critical eccentricities are evaluated. Three different D/t ratios such as 21, 25 and 29 and L/D ratios varying from 5 to 20 are considered as experimental parameters. Six specimens of bare steel tubes as reference specimens, twelve specimens of CFT columns without shear connectors and twelve specimens of CFT columns with shear connectors, in total thirty specimens are tested. The P-M values at the ultimate failure load of experimental study are found to be well agreed with the results of the proposed P-M interaction model. The load-deflection and load-strain behaviour of the experimental column specimens are presented. The behaviour of the CFT columns with and without shear connectors is compared. Experimental results indicate that the percentage increase in load carrying capacity of CFT columns with shear connectors compared to the ordinary CFT columns is found to be insignificant with a value ranging from 6% to 13%. However, the ductility factor of columns with shear connectors exhibit higher values than that of the CFT columns without shear connectors. This paper presents the proposed P-M interaction model and experimental results under varying parameters such as D/t and L/D ratios.
