Performance of steel-reinforced square CFST stub columns loaded in axial compression: Experiments
Abstract A steel-reinforced concrete-filled steel tubular column is a type of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) column reinforced by embedded steel profile. The inner carbon steel tube reinforced square concrete-filled stainless steel tubular column (SR-CFSST) has not been systematically investigated. In this project, stub composite columns with various experimental parameters were tested as loaded in axial monotonic compression, considering the effects of the concrete strength, column size and wall thickness of the steel tubes. The mechanical behaviour of stub columns was analysed in terms of ultimate load-bearing capacity, strength index, ductility, and failure modes. The calculation methods in five codes, including GB 50936, DBJ/T 13–51, Eurocode 4, ANSI/AISC 360 and AIJ, which are widely used for ordinary CFST stub columns, were compared. Finally, a simplified calculation method for the SR-CFSST stub columns was proposed for predicting the ultimate bearing capacity. The predicted results agree well with test results and the simplified calculation method can be used to design SR-CFSST stub columns loaded monotonically in axial compression.
Highlights Experimental study on steel-reinforced concrete-filled stainless steel tubular (SR-CFSST) stub columns was conducted. Influence of variables on the ultimate bearing capacity and ductility of SR-CFSST stub columns was analysed. The load-bearing capacity of the square and circular CFST sections did not reach their peak values at the same axial compressive strain. Steel reinforcement could obviously improve the bearing capacity and ductility of SR-CFSST stub columns, and reduce the usage of stainless steel. A simplified calculation method for the ultimate bearing capacity of SR-CFSST stub columns was proposed based on the traditional design codes.
