Axial Compressive Performance of Hybrid FRP–Concrete–Steel Double-Skin Tubular Columns with Varying Slenderness Ratios in Square-Circle Configuration
Hybrid double-skin tubular columns (DSTCs) are a promising form of composite columns in which the concrete is sandwiched between inner steel and outer fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes. A modified form of DSTC incorporating stiffened steel tubes demonstrates more potential benefits than the standard unstiffened design. The inclusion of stiffeners in the steel tube enhances composite interaction among column components, effectively delaying local buckling deformations and potentially improving the behavior of confined concrete. The present study performs both experimental and analytical investigations to measure the impact of stiffeners on the confined concrete behavior of square-circle (SC) configured specimens, considering various column slenderness ratios. Thirty DSTC specimens were experimentally tested with variations in steel stiffener properties, including number, configuration (maintaining a similar combined area), thickness, and width; and unconfined concrete strength. The test results showed a substantial improvement in axial load capacity in the stiffened SC-shaped specimens, reaching up to approximately 37% in this study. Subsequently, the test data were utilized to propose a stress–strain confined concrete model specific to SC-shaped specimens with varying slenderness ratios. This proposed model was employed for calibration study using detailed finite-element (FE) analysis, demonstrating excellent agreement with the test data. A parametric investigation was then conducted through FE analysis to optimize the rib-stiffener properties. Finally, the findings from both the experiments and the FE analysis were utilized to develop a simplified equation that predicts the axial load capacity of stiffened SC-DSTCs.
