Effect of the Concrete Strength on the Concrete-Steel Bond in Concrete Filled Steel Tubes

In this study, the concrete-steel bond strength of concrete filled cylindrical steel tubes has been experimentally investigated. 22 short, high strength and normal concrete filled circular steel tubes were tested. Push-out test was carried out as the common method to evaluate the bond carrying capacity. Four different concrete mixes were used in preparing the specimens. The steel tubes were w...

Numerical Analysis of Concrete-Filled Circular Steel Tubes

Non-linear Analysis of Multi-hazard Performance of Cylindrical Concrete Filled Steel Tubes Bridge Piers

Advanced finite element techniques are used to investigate the multi-hazard (earthquake and blast) performance of Concrete-Filled Steel Tubes (CFSTs) and Concrete Filled Double Skinned Tubes (CFDSTs) for bridge engineering applications. Specimens of both sections are analyzed using the finite element package LS-DYNA under similar seismic and blast loading. First, behavior of CFSTs recorded in s...

Flexural Behavior of GFRP Tubes Filled with Magnetically Driven Concrete

Experimental investigation of GFRP (glass fiber reinforced polymer) tubes that were filled with magnetically driven concrete was carried out to study the flexural behavior of specimens under bending. Specimens having different cross section and lengths were tested. The test specimens were fabricated by filling magnetically driven concrete into the GFRP tubes and the concrete was vibrated using ...

Damage Assessment for Performance-Based Design of Rectangular Concrete-Filled Steel Tubes

This paper summarizes research in which the damage evolution of rectangular concrete-filled steel tube (RCFT) members, connections, and frames, was documented using results from experimental tests from around the world. Two types of damage indices were then defined and used for each type of RCFT component to quantify damage. Based on the quantified values of damage, each local damage level iden...
