This paper presents an experimental study of the behavior of a steel-composite hollow reinforced concrete (RC) column under concentric loading. The effects of important variables, such as concrete strength, inner tube thickness, hollow ratio, column diameter, and transverse reinforcement space, are presented in this study. The failure of composite hollow RC columns is characterized by the formation of an inclined shear sliding plane. When the column had a highly confined effect, the inclination of the shear sliding plane was 45°. This study shows that the required performance is achieved when the splice providing transverse reinforcement is fully bonded. Furthermore, the inner tube experiences buckling failure after reaching its maximum strength. The steel-composite hollow RC column with high-strength concrete (HSC) has lower ductility and toughness compared to a column with normal-strength concrete (NSC).

The current local stability criteria (KBC2009, AISC2010) are enacted through theoretical and experimental studies of ordinary steels, but the mechanical properties of high strength steels are different from ordinary steels. The high strength steel in the applicability of design criteria should be needed to review because of increasing market demanding for high strength steel in the high-rise and long span buildings. In this study, stub columns of H-shaped and box section with various steel grades subjected to concentric loading were investigated, and these steels were checked to the applicability of current local stability criteria. The difference between the ordinary steel and high strength steel was compared. As a result of comparison with various steel grades, most specimens were satisfied with the design criteria, but some specimens with lower tensile strength were not reached the required strength. It is considered that the uncertainty of material was the higher when the tensile strength of material was the lower.

The purpose of this study was to assess whether measurements of thigh bulk taken with a tape measure would give an indication of muscle power. Eleven male patients, all undergoing unilateral menisectomies, performed exercises of the quadriceps and hamstring muscles during concentric loading at 60°/s. The patients were tested three times over a 12-week period: one day before the operation and 2 and 12 weeks after the operation. Thigh girth was recorded, using a conventional plastic tape measure, 10 cm from the top of the patella in each of the three test sessions. The results of this study demonstrated that muscle power cannot be predicted from thigh girth measurements.

The application of steel-straps confinement or better known as steel-strapping tensioning technique (SSTT) has been proven to be effective in increasing the strength and ductility of High-Strength Concrete (HSC) column comparable to Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP).  However, most of the research of confined HSC column has mainly concentrated on concentric loading. In actual practical condition, most of the columns are subjected to eccentric loading. The scarcity of the experimental data for eccentric loaded confined HSC column has prevented the potential use of this type of structure element. In this paper, five HSC columns were tested. The specimens were SSTT-confined and tested with 25mm and 50 mm eccentric loading. The results show that SSTT confinement can increase the strength and deformability of high-strength concrete column, although the strain gradient reduces the confining efficiency. Therefore, smaller capacity enhancement factor should be used in eccentrically loaded SSTT-confined HSC columns compared to concentrically loaded columns. Furthermore, the non-linear theoretical model established in this study can be used for templates for future work on SSTT-confined HSC columns.
