ULTIMATE STRENGTH OF SLEEVE JOINTS BETWEEN CONCRETE-FILLED CIRCULAR STEEL PIPES

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

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...

Numerical Simulation of Ultra- Strength Concrete-filled Steel Columns

Article history: Received: 11. 09. 2013. Received in revised form: 01. 10. 2013. Accepted: 15. 10. 2013. Researches into the constitutive relation of the super high strength and high performance concrete and the stress strain relationship of the ultrastrength concrete-filled steel columns are rare. Therefore, this paper based on continuous mechanics presents the relationship of mathematical des...

Flexural Performance of High-strength Prestressed Concrete-encased Concrete-filled Steel Tube Sections

The sections composed of concrete and steel, which include concrete-encased concrete-filled tubes, generally have defects due to the low tensile strength of concrete. Therefore, an appropriate method was used for the combination of concrete-filled tubes (CFT) and prestressing strands which is encased in concrete. The conventional design guidelines are commonly developed for materials with norma...
