A double-skinned composite tubular (DSCT) column, which consists of concrete and inner and outer tubes, was finally developed to overcome the weaknesses of concrete filled tube columns by reducing the self-weight of the column and confining the concrete triaxially. Research pertaining to the stiffness and strength of the column and the confining effect in a DSCT column has been carried out. However, detailed studies on the confining stress, especially the internal confining stress in a DSCT column, have not been carried out. Internal and external confining stresses should be evaluated to determine the effective confining stress in a DSCT column. In this paper, the confining stresses of concrete before and after insertion of an inner tube were studied using finite element analysis. The relationship between the internal or external confining stresses and the theoretical confining stress was investigated by parametric studies. New modified formulae for the yield and buckling failure conditions based on the formulae suggested by former researchers were proposed. Through analytical studies, the modified formulae were verified to be effective for economic and reasonable design of the inner tubes in a DSCT column under the same confining stress.

The confining effect of concrete was studied when a steel tube is set at the inside face of a hollow reinforced concrete column. To investigate the confining effect by a steel tube, 36 specimens were tested and compared. Test results show that the inserted steel tube provide sufficient confinement to the confining effect depends on the thickness of the steel tube. And also, test results show that the provided confinement by a steel tube increase the strength of concrete.

단주영역에서 정사각형 콘크리트 충전 강관기둥의 단순 누가강도, 설계식 강도는 실험강도에 비해 약간 과소하게 평가하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 주요 요인이 되는 콘크리트의 구속효과를 고려하여 평가하고자 하였다. 콘크리트의 구속효과를 검토하기 위해 3차원 유한요소모델을 사용하여 강관의 폭-두께비(b/t), 콘크리트의 압축강도($f_c$'), 강재의 항복응력($f_y$)에 따른 영향을 검토하였고 이 세 변수를 조합한 제안된 강도식은 기존의 실험값과 비교, 검토되었다. 또한 하중 재하상태에 따른 콘크리트의 구속효과도 살펴 보았다.

본 연구에서는 새로이 제안된 콘크리트의 강판 보강기법 및 GFRP 튜브의 구속효과를 분석하고 평가하였다. 새로이 제안된 강판 보강기법은 기존의 강판 보강기법과 설치 및 거동에서 차이가 있으므로 이 기법의 구속효과를 평가할 필요성이 있으며, GFRP 보강기법과 상호비교를 통해서 장단점을 분석하였다. 강판 보강기법에 의한 콘크리트의 구속효과는 기존의 연구자들이 제안한 식과 일치하는 결과를 보여주었다. 그러나 GFRP 보강기법은 보강두께 및 콘크리트의 압축강도에 따라 구속효과가 없는 경우가 나타났기 때문에 기존의 구속효과 추정식을 그대로 사용할 수 없었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 새로이 추정하는 기법을 제시하였으며, 이를 통해서 구속효과가 발생하는 최소 보강두께를 결정하는 기법을 제시하였다. 마지막으로, 두 기법으로 보강된 콘크리트의 파단변형률 비교하여 연성거동 능력을 평가하였다.

Concrete in a CFT(Concrete Filled Tube) column has enhanced strength and ductility because it is triaxially confined by a steel tube. But CFT columns are designed based on linear analyses by stress block method without the confining effect or the nonlinearity of the concrete. These make the significantly difference between the analysis results and the experimental results. Thus in this study, a nonlinear CFT column model was developed considering the confining effect on the concrete in a CFT column. This developed model was verified by experimental results from other researchers and compared with the results of various specifications. With the developed model, parametric studies were performed and the developed column model showed reasonable and accurate results.

This paper presents a numerical study of axially loaded concrete-filled steel tubular columns with "T" shaped cross section (CFTTS) based on the ABAQUS standard solver. Two types of columns with "T" shaped cross section, the common concrete-filled steel tubular columns with "T" shaped cross section (CCFTTS) and the double concrete-filled steel tubular columns with "T" shaped cross section (DCFTTS), are discussed. The failure modes, confining effects and load-displacement curves are analyzed. The numerical results indicate that both have the similar failure mode that the steel tubes are only outward buckling on all columns' faces. It is found that DCFTTS columns have higher axial capacities than CCFTTS ones duo to the steel tube of DCFTTS columns can plays more significant confining effect on concrete. A parametric study, including influence of tube thickness, concrete strength and friction coefficient of tube-concrete interface on the axial capacities is also carried out. Simplified formulae were also proposed based on this study.

구속된 콘크리트는 구속되지 않은 콘크리트에 비해 상당히 큰 강도를 갖는다. 따라서 콘크리트의 구속응력을 증가시키는 것은 강도의 증가를 유도할 수 있다. 하지만 중공교각의 경우, 심부구속력의 부재로 인하여 중공교각의 안쪽면에서 취성파괴가 발생하며, 이는 기둥의 강도 저하 및 연성의 저하를 초래한다. 이러한 문제를 극복하기 위하여, 강관 삽입 중공 RC(Reinforced Concrete) 기둥이 개발되었으며, 본 연구에서는 실험을 통하여 삽입 강관에 의한 내부 구속력의 효과를 검증하였다. 총 36개의 시험체를 제작하여 실험을 수행하였으며, 실험 결과를 통하여 삽입 강관의 구속력과 이로 인한 콘크리트의 강도 증가를 확인하였다.

Based on the dynamic tests of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) short columns confined by the hoop reinforcement, the dynamic failure mechanism and the mechanical parameters related to the constitutive relation of confined recycled aggregate concrete (CRAC) were investigated thoroughly. The fracturing sections were relatively flat and smooth at higher strain rates rather than those at a quasi-static strain rate. With the increasing stirrup volume ratio, the crack mode is transited from splitting crack to slipping crack constrained with large transverse confinement. The compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain increase with the increase of stirrup volume ratio, as well as the increasing strain rate. The dynamic confining increase factors of the compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain increase by about 33%, 39%, and 103% when the volume ratio of hoop reinforcement is increased from 0 to 2%, but decrease by about 3.7%, 4.2%, and 9.1% when the stirrup spacing is increased from 20mm to 60mm, respectively. This sentence is rephrased as follows: When the stirrup volume ratios are up to 0.675%, and 2%, the contributions of the hoop confinement effect to the dynamic confining increase factors of the compressive peak strain and the compressive peak stress are greater than those of the strain rate effect, respectively. The dynamic confining increase factor (DCIF) models of the compressive peak stress, peak strain, and ultimate strain of CRAC are proposed in the paper. Through the confinement of the hoop reinforcement, the ductility of RAC, which is generally slightly lower than that of NAC, is significantly improved.

In order to study the triaxial mechanical behavior of steel fiber reinforced high performance concrete (SFRHPC), the standard triaxial compression tests with four different confining pressures are performed on the cylindrical specimens. Three different steel fiber volumes (0, 1% and 2%) are added in the specimens with diameter of 50 mm and height of 100 mm. Test results show that the triaxial compressive strength and peak strain increase with the increasing of fiber content at the same confining pressure. At the same steel fiber content, the triaxial compressive strength and peak strain increases with the confining pressure. The compressive strength growth rate declines as the confining pressure and steel fiber content increases. Longitudinal cracks are dominant in specimens with or without steel fiber under uniaxial compression loading. While with the confining pressure increases, diagonal crack due to shear is obvious. The Mohr-Coulomb criterion is illustrated can be used to describe the failure behavior, and the cohesive force increases as steel fiber content increases. Finally, the numerical model is built by using the PFC3D software. In the numerical model a index is introduced to reflect the effect of steel fiber content on the triaxial compressive behavior. The simulating stress-strain curve and failure mode of SFRHPC are agree well with the experimental results.

TR-CFT(Transversely Reinforced Concrete Filled Steel Tube) 기둥은 CFT 기둥의 국부좌굴부위를 탄소섬유쉬트로 보강을 하여 국부좌굴을 방지하거나 지연시키는 기둥부재이다. 본 연구에서는TR-CFT 기둥의 휨내력 산정을 위한 설계식을 제안하였다. CFT 기둥의 ACI 설계식은 강관내부에 발생하는 콘크리트의 구속효과를 고려하지 않아 저평가 되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 구속효과를 고려한 콘크리트의 응력-변형률 곡선를 이용하여 CFT 기둥과 TR-CFT 기둥의 휨내력 산정식을 제안했으며 해석에 의한 예측 값들은 실험값과 잘 일치함을 확인할 수 있었다.
