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...

Steel versus Steel-reinforced Concrete Bridges: Environmental Assessment

Bridge material selection has traditionally been b~ed on e.ngineering and economi~ criteria. With the increasing interest of the public, industry, and government m sustainable:: development, en~lronmental. assessment in construction is becoming more important. However, we need metrtcs and data on deSign alternatives for effective decision making. In this paper, we present results of a life cycl...

Some Studies on Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete

Fibres are generally used as resistance of cracking and strengthening of concrete. In this project, I am going to carry out test on steel fibre reinforced concrete to check the influence of fibres on flexural strength of concrete. According to various research papers, it has been found that steel fibres give the maximum strength in comparison to glass and polypropylene fibres. Hence, in this pr...

Steel Concrete Composite Structures: State of Art

The aim of this review article is to examine solutions and challenges associated with composite construction. Structural steel and concrete, each of the two materials can be used to its best advantage and, therefore, composite structures have proved economical in terms of overall cost. Combination of steel and concrete systems has been conceived on the premises that each type of construction of...
