In this paper, structural performance of damaged SRC beam-columns with open-web type of batten steel plate after retrofitting was investigated. Three open-web type SRC beam-columns with bolt-connected batten steel plates were fabricated and tested under combined constant axial load and cyclic lateral load. At first, each beam-column was cyclically loaded to the targeted displacement. After the first loading, the test columns were retrofitted and reloaded till large deformation or failure. The damaged portion of each column was retrofitted with the polymer cement mortar and epoxy resin was injected into the cracks. The measured stiffness of retrofitted columns varied between 71.4% and 85.5% of the initial one. And, test results also indicated that the column which experienced the larger displacement and higher axial load showed lower load carrying capacity, but the others showed approximately the same capacities as the initial columns. Numerical analysis was also conducted to explain the retrofitted columns. Analytical results predicted the experimental behavior fairly well, which verifies the validity of the analytical models in low axial load.

The objective of this study is to examine the ultimate strength of CFT columns. The range of the axial load ratio and the slenderness ratio in which CFT beam-columns reach the full plastic moment are examined on the basis of the strength formulas specified by AIJ Recommendation for Limit State Design of Steel Structures. The CFT columns are subjected to the constant axial compressive force and the monotonic moment at the one end, as the analytical parameters the axial load ratio and slenderness ratio are selected. The analysis is carried out by the shooting method. Bending moment-rotational angle relationships are calculated by the shooting method and the maximum strengths of CFT columns are obtained. When the value obtained by multiplying the axial load ratio and the second power of the slenderness ratio is 0.05, the maximum strength reach 95% of the full plastic moment under the condition that the axial load ratio value is less than or equal to 0.75. When the value obtained by multiplying the axial load ratio and the second power of the slenderness ratio is 0.1, the maximum strength reach 95% of the full plastic moment under the condition that the axial load ratio value is less than or equal to 0.5.

This article experimentally investigates the cyclic behavior of ultra high performance concrete–filled steel tube beam-columns. A total of eight specimens were tested. The considered parameters were the axial load ratio and steel ratio. The results showed that all ultra high performance concrete–filled steel tube beam-columns had a very good cyclic behavior without significant pinching. Increasing the axial load ratio results in the decrease of strength and ductility, but it has no obvious influence on the initial flexural stiffness. Reducing the steel ratio results in the decrease of the strength, stiffness and ductility, and energy dissipation capacity.
