Concrete filled steel Tube(CFT) columns have great strength but also fire resistance performance due to the heat storage effect of concrete. In this research, we focus on the fire performance of CFT using 100 MPa concrete without fire protection. We use steel fiber and nylon fiber for fire resistance. We perform the fire test of CFT specimen with loading 200, 300 and 400 ton. To investigate the effect of loading to fire resistance, we compare the fire resistance time according to the loading.

Of the various methods of splicing reinforcing bar in reinforced concrete structure, mortar-filled sleeve reinforcement splice offers diverse benefits, not only in terms of structural performance but also for the construction process. Consequently, after the mortar-filled sleeve splices have been developed in recent years, research and development on these splices has been actively carried out, in order to evaluate its macro structural performance, such as its strength and stiffness, with the aim of enabling this system to be applied to construction in the field as early as possible. However, to make a proper evaluation on the overall structural performance of the mortar-filled sleeve reinforcing bar splice, it is of critical importance to understand the lateral confining action of the sleeve, which is known to affect the bond strength between the embedded bar and mortar in the sleeve. Accordingly, in this study, an experiment of monotonic loading and cyclic loading was conducted with a full-sized mortar-filled sleeve splice attaching strain gauges on the sleeve surface with experimental variables such as development length of bar, etc. Based on the test results, the effect of the lateral confining action of the sleeve was analyzed and considered in terms of the bond strength between the bar and mortar in this splice.

콘크리트의 구속효과 및 재료 비선형성, 강재의 변형 경화, 초기작용 축력을 고려하여 원형 콘크리트 충전 강관(Concrete Filled Steel Tube : CFT) 기둥의 해석을 위한 프로그램을 작성하고 검증 및 해석을 수행하였다. 축력-모멘트 상관관계 해석, 모멘트-곡률 해석, 모멘트-횡변위에 대한 해석을 수행하고, 선행연구자의 실험결과와 비교하여 검증하였다. 검증결과, 작성된 프로그램은 실제 CFT 기둥의 거동에 근접하였으며, 콘크리트의 구속효과를 고려한 경우 그렇지 않은 경우보다 더 큰 강도와 연성능력을 나타내었다. 콘크리트의 강도와 강관의 두께 변화에 따른 간단한 매개변수 해석을 수행하였으며, 콘크리트의 강도 증가 시 CFT 기둥의 강도는 증가하나 연성은 저하되는 결과를 보여주었다. 반면에 강관 두께를 증가시키는 경우에는, CFT 기둥의 강도와 연성 모두 증가하는 결과를 보여주었다.

최근 토목분야에서 철근콘크리트 압축재에 발생하고 있는 부식, 중성화 등의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 섬유강화복합재로 외부를 보강한 합성부재가 개발되어 적용되고 있다. 이러한 합성부재는 외부를 섬유강화플라스틱으로 보강하고 있어 부재 전체의 구조적 성능을 향상시킬 뿐만 아니라 내화학성이 우수하여 기존 콘크리트 부재와 비교할 때 내구성이 향상된다. 그러나 복합재로 외부를 보강한 콘크리트 합성부재에 대한 기존 연구자료들은 구조적 거동해석에서 큰 차이가 없이 유사한 결과를 보여주었으나 그 결과가 부재의 단면구성과 크게 관계되기 때문에 이 연구에 직접적으로 적용하는데는 어려움이 있고, 또한 설계기준으로 적용하기에는 여전히 미흡한 실정이다. 이 연구에서는 RCFFT 부재의 설계규준 마련을 위한 기초자료를 확보하기 위해 압축 및 준정적 휨실험을 수행하여 구조적 거동을 조사하였고, 압축강도를 추정할 수 있는 근사식을 제안하였으며, 휨강성을 예측할 수 있도록 하였다.

The strength of steel material in a concrete filled steel tube (CFT) is reduced in fire, but the filled interior concrete structurally ensures the fire resistance due to its high thermal capacity. More, the contractibility of CFT is excellent since it can be constructed without form work. This research analyzed the interior concrete strength and deformation characteristics, which are the influence factors of the fire resistance of CFT, in proportion to the axial load ratio. The fire resistance performance according to changes of the axial load ratio showed great fluctuation. As $280{\times}280{\times}6$ CFT columns with the concrete strengths of 24 MPa and 40 MPa and the axial load ratios of 0.9, 0.6, and 0.2 in accordance with KS F 2257-1 and 7 were heated with loading to examine the fire resistance performance, the 24 MPa concrete exhibited the fire resistance time as 27, 113, and 180 minutes for the axial load ratios, 0.9, 0.6, and 0.2 respectively. In case of 40 MPa concrete, the fire resistance time were turned out to be 19 and 28 minutes for the axial load ratios, 0.9 and 0.6 respectively. The results of 40 MPa concrete showed the much lower fire resistance performance when comparing with those of 24 MPa concrete. The fire resistance performance was not increased significantly when the axial load ratio was reduced. Therefore, the deceased fire resistance performance of high strength concrete is assumed to be caused by the internal pressure increase upon the heat application.

A finite element formulation to predict the flexural behavior of composite girder is presented in which the early-age properties of concrete are specified including maturing of elastic modulus, creep and shrinkage. The time dependent constitutive relation accounting for the early-age concrete properties is derived in an incremental format by expanding the total form of stress-strain relation by the first order Taylor series with respect to the reference time. The total potential energy of the flexural composite member is minimized to derive the time dependent finite element equilibrium equation. Numerical applications are made for the 3-span double composite steel box girders which is a composite bridge girder filled with concrete at the bottom of the steel box in the negative moment region. The numerical analysis with considering the variation of concrete elastic modulus are performed to investigate the effect of it on the early-age behavior of composite structures. The one dimensional finite element analysis results are compared with the analytical method based on the sectional analysis. Close agreement is observed among the two methods.

원형 콘크리트 충전 강관(CFT)은 급속시공이 가능하고 뛰어난 좌굴 성능 및 콘크리트의 구속효과와 같은 여러 장점을 가지고 있어, 건축물의 기둥이나 교량의 교각으로 이용되고 있다. 하지만 CFT는 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 널리 이용되고 있지 않고 있다. 이러한 이유는 CFT의 설계기준들이 서로 상이하여 보수적인 설계가 이루어지고 있는 것에 일부 기인한다. 이 연구에서는 CFT설계에 널리 이용되는 AISC 및 EC4 설계기준의 타당성을 기존 연구자들이 수행한 실험 결과 및 이 연구에서 수행된 유한요소해석 결과를 이용하여 검증하였다. 특히 축력과 휨모멘트가 동시에 작용하는 CFT에 대하여 AISC 및 EC4에서 제안한 P-M 상관곡선의 타당성 검증에 초점을 두었다. 연구 결과, 기존의 P-M 상관곡선은 CFT의 강도를 상당히 보수적으로 예측하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이 연구에서는 개선된 P-M 상관곡선을 제안하고 기존 실험 결과 및 이 연구에서 수행한 유한요소해석 결과를 이용하여 검증하였다.

Circular concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns have an advantage over all other sections when they are used in compression members. This paper proposes a new approach for deriving a new empirical equation to predict the axial compressive capacity of circular CFST columns using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The developed ANN model uses 5 input parameters that include the diameter of circular steel tube, the length of the column, the thickness of steel tube, the steel yield strength and the compressive strength of concrete. The only output parameter is the axial compressive capacity. Training and testing the developed ANN model was carried out using 219 available sets of data collected from the experimental results in the literature. An empirical equation is then proposed as an important result of this study, which is practically used to predict the axial compressive capacity of a circular CFST column. To evaluate the performance of the developed ANN model and the proposed equation, the predicted results are compared with those of the empirical equations stated in the current design codes and other models. It is shown that the proposed equation can predict the axial compressive capacity of circular CFST columns more accurately than other methods. This is confirmed by the high accuracy of a large number of existing test results. Finally, the parametric study result is analyzed for the proposed ANN equation to consider the effect of the input parameters on axial compressive strength.

Reactive powder concrete (RPC) is a type of ultra-high strength concrete that has a relatively high brittleness. However, its ductility can be improved by confinement, and the use of RPC in composite RPC filled steel tube columns has become an important subject of research in recent years. This paper aims to present an experimental study of axial capacity calculation of RPC filled circular steel tube columns. Twenty short columns under axial compression were tested and information on their failure patterns, deformation performance, confinement mechanism and load capacity were presented. The effects of load conditions, diameter-thickness ratio and compressive strength of RPC on the axial behavior were further discussed. The experimental results show that: (1) specimens display drum-shaped failure or shear failure respectively with different confinement coefficients, and the load capacity of most specimens increases after the peak load; (2) the steel tube only provides lateral confinement in the elastic-plastic stage for fully loaded specimens, while the confinement effect from steel tube initials at the set of loading for partially loaded specimens; (3) confinement increases the load capacity of specimens by 3% to 38%, and this increase is more pronounced as the confinement coefficient becomes larger; (4) the residual capacity-to-ultimate capacity ratio is larger than 0.75 for test specimens, thus identifying the composite columns have good ductility. The working mechanism and force model of the composite columns were analyzed, and based on the twin-shear unified strength theory, calculation methods of axial capacity for columns with two load conditions were established.

This research examines the eccentric compression performance of composite columns composed of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC)-filled square steel tube and profile steel. A total of 17 specimens on the composite columns with different recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) replacement percentage, RAC strength, width to thickness ratio of square steel tube, profile steel ratio, eccentricity and slenderness ratio were subjected to eccentric compression tests. The failure process and characteristic of specimens under eccentric compression loading were observed in detail. The load-lateral deflection curves, load-train curves and strain distribution on the cross section of the composite columns were also obtained and described on the basis of test data. Results corroborate that the failure characteristics and modes of the specimens with different design parameters were basically similar under eccentric compression loads. The compression side of square steel tube yields first, followed by the compression side of profile steel. Finally, the RAC in the columns was crushed and the apparent local bulging of square steel tube was also observed, which meant that the composite column was damaged and failed. The composite columns under eccentric compression loading suffered from typical bending failure. Moreover, the eccentric bearing capacity and deformation of the specimens decreased as the RCA replacement percentage and width to thickness ratio of square steel tube increased, respectively. Slenderness ratio and eccentricity had a significantly adverse effect on the eccentric compression performance of composite columns. But overall, the composite columns generally had high-bearing capacity and good deformation. Meanwhile, the mechanism of the composite columns under eccentric compression loads was also analysed in detail, and the calculation formulas on the eccentric compression capacity of composite columns were proposed via the limit equilibrium analysis method. The calculation results of the eccentric compression capacity of columns are consistent with the test results, which verify the validity of the formulas, and the conclusions can serve as references for the engineering application of this kind of composite columns.
