LOCAL BUCKLING OF CONCRETE FILLED CIRCULAR STEEL TUBE COLUMN

Cyclic Evolution of Damage and Beam-column Interaction Strength of Concrete-filled Steel Tube Beam-columns

The assessment of response of composite seismic force resisting systems requires accurate nonlinear formulations for the composite members. In this work, reporting the first phase of a NEES project, a three-dimensional distributed plasticity formulation is presented for both circular and rectangular composite concrete-filled steel tubes (CFTs) that includes new constitutive models for the concr...

Prediction of axial load capacity of stub circular concrete-filled steel tube using fuzzy logic

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) Confinement effect Fuzzy logic Modified learning from example (MLFE) Axial load capacity A circular concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) has several advantages compared with the conventional reinforced concrete member or hollow steel tube, since the tri-axial state of compression of the concrete infill increases its strength and str...

Inelastic Behavior of Concrete-filled Thin-walled Steel Tubular Columns Subjected to Local Buckling

This paper is concerned with the inelastic behavior of axially loaded concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular columns subjected to local buckling. A nonlinear fiber element analysis program accounting for local buckling effects is developed for predicting the ultimate strength and ductility of concrete-filled thin-walled steel tubular columns. The effects of local buckling are taken into cons...

Numerical Analysis of Concrete-Filled Circular Steel Tubes

Seismic Design of Concrete-Filled Circular Steel Bridge Piers

The adequacy of the existing design provisions for concrete-filled steel pipes subjected to axial forces and flexure is reviewed by comparing the strengths predicted by the CAN/CSA-S16.1-M94, AISC LRFD 1994, and the Eurocode 4 1994 codes and standards against experimental data from a number of investigators. New proposed design equations are then developed, in a format compatible with North Ame...
