In this paper, a comparative investigation into the behavior of concrete-filled steel tube column and reinforced concrete column with the same quantity of material and cross-section sizes under axial load have been undertaken using the finite element method. Both is analyzed to compare the axial compression performance,including bearing capacity, ductility and their mechanism. The results of the analyses clearly exhibit that bearing capacity of concrete-filled steel tube column is higher about 25% than that of reinforced concrete column. Under the same conditions, ductility of concrete-filled steel tube column is better than reinforced concrete column, its application is recommended in construction practice.

Steel tube filled with steel-reinforced concrete (STSRC) is a new kind of heavy load column, which made by inserting steel skeletons into the steel tube, then injecting the concrete to the tube. In order to study the combined column’s stability subject to axial compression, we use energy method and numerical methods analysis derives the formula of stability coefficient in which slenderness ratio as the main parameters. Using the 1/1000 column length as the initial deflection of the STSRC columns by FORTUNE calculation program, stability coefficient is produced through comparison and analysis between calculated results from quantile regression and that from ordinary least square regression respectively. According to the computer results and energy method, the formula for calculating the axial stability bearing capacity of STSRC was established. A good agreement between the calculation results and testing results illustrates, which is feasible to using the calculating formula to calculate the bearing capacity of STSRC


This article presents the design methods for concrete filled circular columns subjected to long-term axial compression and bending. . There are two approaches: stress-based and strain-based for formulations. Both approaches are specified in Russian Code, SP 266.1325800.2016, and in European Code, EN 1994-1-1:2004. A numerical example shows the procedures to calculate the strength of a given column according to two different Codes, the influence of parameters such as steel contribution ratio, relative slenderness to the results in two methods are consider.

The behavior of H-shaped honeycombed stub columns with rectangular concrete-filled steel tube flanges (STHCCs) subjected to axial load was investigated experimentally. A total of 16 specimens were studied, and the main parameters varied in the tests included the confinement effect coefficient of the steel tube (ξ), the concrete cubic compressive strength (fcu), the steel web thickness (t2), and the slenderness ratio of specimens (λs). Failure modes, load-displacement curves, load-strain curves of the steel tube flanges and webs, and force mechanisms were obtained by means of axial compression tests. The parameter influences on the axial compression bearing capacity and ductility were then analyzed. The results showed that rudder slip diagonal lines occur on the steel tube outer surface and the concrete-filled steel tube flanges of all specimens exhibit shear failure. Specimen load-displacement curves can be broadly divided into elastic deformation, elastic-plastic deformation, and load descending and residual deformation stages. The specimen axial compression bearing capacity and ductility increase with increasing ξ, and the axial compression bearing capacity increases gradually with increasing fcu, whereas the ductility decreases. The ductility significantly improves with increasing t2, whereas the axial compression bearing capacity increases slightly. The axial compression bearing capacity decreases gradually with increasing λs, whereas the ductility increases. An analytical expression for the STHCC short column axial compression bearing capacity is established by introducing a correction function ( w ), which has good agreement with experimental results. Finally, several design guidelines are suggested, which can provide a foundation for the popularization and application of this kind of novel composite column in practical engineering projects.

Concrete filled steel tube (CFST) reinforced concrete (CFSTRC) columns subjected to axial compression were experimentally investigated in this paper. A total of ten specimens were tested. The main parameters varied in the experiments were steel tube ratio and concrete strength. It was found that, under axial compression, the column ultimate strength increases with the increasing of steel tube ratio and concrete strength. The work in this paper provides a basis for the further theoretical study on the behavior of CFSTRC columns.

The reinforced concrete-filled steel tube (RCFST) column solves several of the problems of the concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) column in practical engineering applications. Moreover, RCFST has a simple joint structure, high bearing capacity, good ductility, and superior fire resistance. From a structural safety perspective, designers prioritize the creep performance of CFST members in structural design. Therefore, the creep behavior of RCFST columns should be thoroughly investigated in practical engineering design. To study the influence of the creep behavior of RCFST columns under axial compression, this work analyzed the mechanical behavior of composite columns based on their mechanical characteristics under axial compression and established a creep formula suitable for RCFST columns under axial compression. A creep analysis program was also developed to obtain the creep strain–time curve, and its correctness was verified by existing tests. On this basis, the effects of the main design parameters, such as the stress level, steel ratio, and reinforcement ratio, on the creep behavior were determined and analyzed. The creep of the tested composite columns increased rapidly in the early stages (28 days) of load action; the growth rate was relatively low after 28 days and tended to stabilize after approximately six months. The stress level had the greatest influence on the creep of RCFST columns under axial compression, followed by the steel ratio. The influence of the reinforcement ratio on the creep behavior was less. The results of this study can provide a reference for engineering practice.

In order to study the bearing capacity and section stress-strain distribute on the steel tube filled with steel-reinforced concrete (STSRC) compression-flexure column, four compression-flexure members of STSRC were tested and theoretical researched. The major parameters of the test were axial compression ratio (n=0.5~0.85). The result of the study showed that: load-deformation() typical curve includes three stages, elastic characteristic, elastic-plastic characteristic, and disruption; Along with the increase of axial compression ratio, the bearing capacity and ductility reduced, but the peak displacement had not change enough; The composite column conformed to plane section, and the larger the axial compression ratio, the further distance of neutral axis of section to the centric axis and closer to the tensile region. ; During the loading process, the steel skeleton in compressive zone yield, but in tensile region never yielded. According to the test results and the limit equilibrium method, the formula for calculating the compression-flexure member of STSRC was established. A good agreement between the calculation results and testing results illustrates, which is feasible to using the calculating formula to calculate the bearing capacity of STSRC.

This study proposes a new type of shear wall, namely, the concrete-filled steel tube composite shear wall, for high performance seismic force resisting structures. In order to study the seismic behavior of concrete-filled steel tube composite shear wall, cyclic loading tests were conducted on three full-scale specimens. One conventional reinforced concrete shear wall was included in the testing program for comparison purpose. Regarding the seismic performance of the shear walls, the failure mode, deformation capacity, bearing capacity, ductility, hysteretic characteristics, and energy dissipation are key parameters in the analysis procedure. The testing results indicated that the bearing capacity, the ductility, and the energy dissipation of the concrete-filled steel tube composite shear walls are greater than that of conventional reinforced concrete shear walls. In addition, the influence of axial compression ratio on the seismic behavior of concrete-filled steel tube composite shear wall is also investigated. It was found that higher axial compression ratio leads to an increase in the bearing capacity of concrete-filled steel tube composite shear walls while a reduction in the ductility capacity.

The behavior of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns subjected to axial compression was experimentally investigated in this paper. Two kinds of columns, including CFST columns with foundation and columns without foundation, were tested. Columns of pure concrete and concrete with reinforcing bars as well as two steel tube thicknesses were considered. The experimental results showed that the CFST column with reinforcing bars has a higher bearing capacity, more effective plastic behavior, and greater toughness, and the elastoplastic boundary point occurs when the load is approximately 0.4–0.5 times of the ultimate bearing capacity. The change of rock-socketed depth and the presence of steel tube will affect the ultimate bearing capacity of rock-socketed pile. The bearing capacities of the rock-socketed CFST columns are lower than those of rock-socketed columns without a steel tube under a vertical load; besides, the greater the rock-socketed depth, the greater the bearing capacity of the rock-socketed piles. In addition, a numerical comparison between the ultimate load and the theoretical value calculated from the relevant specifications shows that the ultimate load is generally considerably greater than the theoretical calculation results.
