To realize the recycling utilization of waste concrete and alleviate the shortage of resources, 11 specimens of steel reinforced recycled concrete (SRRC) filled circular steel tube columns were designed and manufactured in this study, and the cyclic loading tests on the specimens of columns were also carried out respectively. The hysteretic curves, skeleton curves and performance indicators of columns were obtained and analysed in detail. Besides, the finite element model of columns was established through OpenSees software, which considered the adverse effect of recycled coarse aggregate (RA) replacement rates and the constraint effect of circular steel tube on internal RAC. The numerical calculation curves of columns are in good agreement with the experimental curves, which shows that the numerical model is relatively reasonable. On this basis, a series of nonlinear parameters analysis on the hysteretic behaviors of columns were also investigated. The results are as follows: When the replacement rates of RA increases from 0 to 100%, the peak loads of columns decreases by 7.78% and the ductility decreases slightly. With the increase of axial compression ratio, the bearing capacity of columns increases first and then decreases, but the ductility of columns decreases rapidly. Increasing the wall thickness of circular steel tube is very profitable to improve the bearing capacity and ductility of columns. When the section steel ratio increases from 5.54% to 9.99%, although the bearing capacity of columns is improved, it has no obvious contribution to improve the ductility of columns. With the decrease of shear span ratio, the bearing capacity of columns increases obviously, but the ductility decreases, and the failure mode of columns develops into brittle shear failure. Therefore, in the engineering design of columns, the situation of small shear span ratio (i.e., short columns) should be avoided as far as possible. Based on this, the calculation model on the skeleton curves of columns was established by the theoretical analysis and fitting method, so as to determine the main characteristic points in the model. The effectiveness of skeleton curve model is verified by comparing with the test skeleton curves.

최근 세계적으로 이산화탄소(CO₂)의 과도한 배출로 기후변화가 야기되며 CO₂를 제거하고 활용하는 기술이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 철도의 선로에서 발생하는 콘크리트 철도 침목 폐기물을 CO₂ 흡수 소재의 활용 가능성을 평가하고 CO₂ 흡수 반응 전/후의 물리화학적 성질 분석을 통해 CO₂ 제거 메커니즘을 연구하였다. 콘크리트 철도 침목 폐기물은 대부분 Si(26.60 %)로 이루어져 있고 Ca 함유량이 9.82 %로 포틀랜드 시멘트, 일반 콘크리트 폐기물 시료와 비교하였을 때 가장 적음에도 불구하고 함유량의 98 %가 CO₂ 포집 반응에 참여하여 CO₂ 포집 소재로의 우수한 활용 가능성을 입증하였다. TGA와 XRD 분석을 통해 콘크리트 철도 침목 폐기물 기반 CO₂ 포집 소재가 함유하고 있는 Ca가 CO₂ 기체와의 반응을 통해 CaCO₃로 전환되는 탄산화 반응이 CO₂ 제거의 주요 메커니즘임을 확인하였다. 또한 SEM 분석 결과 CO₂ 포집 반응 이후에 0.1 ㎛ 이하 크기의 CaCO₃ 입자가 다량 형성되었으며, 이는 CO₂ 포집 소재 내부에 거대기공을 메조기공으로 변환시켜 포집 소재의 비표면적 증가를 야기하였다.
