Numerical Investigation of High-Strength CFST Columns with Slender Sections
Concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns have been widely used in structures largely subjected to compression such as high-rise buildings. To achieve taller constructions, engineers have improved CFST columns performance by applying high-strength materials to make the columns slender. Although the current standards [1, 2, 4] have taken CFST columns into practice, there are restrictions in the material strength and the section slenderness. To solve the problem, this paper presents a numerical examination of CFST columns fabricated from high-strength materials as well as slender sections under axial compression. For verification, a finite element (FE) model, taking into account the initial local imperfection, residual stress on a tube, the confinement effect of filled concrete and the buckling and post-buckling behavior of steel, was developed for CFST columns. Ultimate strengths obtained from numerical analysis were compared with practical code and experimental results to verify its reliable prediction. A parametric study of CFST columns with different concrete compressive strengths f′c, steel yield stresses fy and the width to thickness ratios B/t was also presented in the paper.
