Behavior of eccentrically loaded concrete-filled stainless steel tubular stub columns confined by CFRP composites
Highlights Behavior of CFRP-bonded concrete-filled stainless steel columns was investigated. 3D-FE modeling was carried out to capture the experimental results. Analytical P-M interaction model was proposed and validated.
Abstract In this paper, experimental, numerical and analytical investigations were carried out to study the structural behavior of concrete-filled stainless steel tubular (CFSST) stub columns externally wrapped by carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites under eccentric compression loading. In the experimental work, twelve stub columns of 101 mm outer diameter and 2 mm thickness were tested. The main variables considered were the thickness of the CFRP wrap (tf) and the load eccentricity to the outer diameter ratio (e/D). A 3D finite element (FE) simulation was developed for the CFRP-bonded CFSST stub columns using the well-known commercial FE program ABAQUS and validated against the experimental results. The validated FE models were further utilized to generate more data with different variables. From the experimental and numerical results, it was found that the CFRP wrapping effectively improves the ultimate strength of the CFRP-bonded CFSST stub columns. Finally, an analytical axial force-bending moment (P-M) interaction model was proposed. It provided conservative predictions when compared to the experimental and FE results.
