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

author

Abstract:

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 welded type with the nominal inside diameters of 3, 4, 6 and 8 inches. According to the test results bond strength increases with reduction of the w/c ratio of concrete mixes. The high strength to normal concrete bond strength ratio increases with the diameter of steel tubes. The bond strength decreases for higher diameters in both normal and high strength concrete specimens.

Bond of High Strength Concrete with High Strength Reinforcing Steel

This paper presents a study about the bond of high strength concrete with high strength steel. Fourteen pull out tests were carried out to determine the bond. The concrete strength was about 70 MPa and the steel was a 500 MPa grade. Bar diameters used were 12, 16, 20, 25, 28, 32 and 36 mm. In order to investigate the effect of cover, each test was done twice, once in a 240 mm diameter concrete ...

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...

Evaluation of concrete-steel bond strength in wet mix sprayed concrete

The high performance obtained in wet mix sprayed concrete has extended the field of applications of this technique. In some of these applications, such as in diaphragm walls or bridge rehabilitation, the structure may be subjected to bending moments, so conventional reinforcement is regularly used. In this context it is important to assure adequate bond between steel rebar and the sprayed concr...
