Axial compression behavior of steel tube reinforced concrete column
ENGINEERING STRUCTURES(2024)
Abstract
This paper studied the axial compression behavior of the steel tube reinforced concrete (STRC) column, which consisted of inner CFST and outer RC components. Ten specimens, including seven STRC columns, two RC columns, and one CFST column were tested. The test parameters included the CFST area ratio (inner CFST to the whole section), longitudinal rebar ratio and stirrup space. The test results showed that the compressive behavior of STRC column with a CFST area ratio of 0.04 was close to that of the RC column, and the compressive behavior of the STRC column with a CFST area ratio of 0.13 was between that of the RC column and CFST column. The finite element (FE) models were developed and verified by test results to investigate the effects of longitudinal rebar ratio and stirrup space on the axial compression behavior of STRC column with various CFST area ratios. The load distribution between inner CFST and outer RC components was analyzed. The FE results showed that the effects of the longitudinal rebar ratio on the ultimate load of STRC column were related to the CFST area ratio. The accuracy and applicability of the five methods suggested by codes for predicting the ultimate load of STRC column were discussed based on the test and FE results.
