EXPERIMENTAL AND COMPUTATIONAL STUDY OF CONCRET FILL ALUMINUM TUBULAR COLUMN UNDER AXIAL LOADS
This work deals with an experimental and computational study was carried out on the structural behavior of circular concrete filled aluminum tubular columns subjected to increasing axial load. Twenty four specimens were tested to investigate the effect of diameter, D/t ratio and slenderness ratio of a aluminum tube on the load carrying capacity of the concrete filled tubular columns. Diameter to wall thickness ratio between 23.3 ≤ D/t ≤ 47.8, and the length to tube diameter ratio of 3 ≤ L/D ≤ 10 was investigated. The structural performance of the concrete-filled aluminum tube columns (CFTa) was investigated using constant concrete cylinder strengths of 24.2 MPa. The main purpose of the computational study aimed to investigate the potential of using fuzzy inference system (FIS) to predict the strength of the composite columns. Fuzzy inference system (FIS) model has been provided to be very effective in predicting the ultimate strength of aluminum-concrete composite columns. The average values of ratios of experimental to predicted ultimate loads are 1.001 for the Sugeno FIS model. The circular hollow section tubes were fabricated by extrusion using 6061-T6 heat-treated aluminum alloy.
