Computational Simulation Of Eccentrically Loaded Circular Thin-Walled Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Slender Columns, Mizan Ahmed, Qing Liang, Vipulkumar Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi Jan 2020

Computational Simulation Of Eccentrically Loaded Circular Thin-Walled Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Slender Columns, Mizan Ahmed, Qing Liang, Vipulkumar Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part B

The concrete confinement provided by the circular steel tubes improves the performance of circular concretefilled double steel tubular (CFDST) columns, which have increasingly been employed as high-performance structural members in tall buildings. This paper presents computational and design models for the simulation and design of high strength CFDST slender columns composed of circular thin-walled sections that are eccentrically loaded. The formulation of the computational model is described, which takes into account the influences of concrete confinement, geometric imperfection, second-order, gradual plasticity of steel, and geometric and material nonlinearities. The inverse quadratic method is implemented in computational algorithms which solve the …

Thin-walled square and circular hollow steel tubes are designed to support the permanent and construction loads of several upper composite floors before filling the concrete into the tubes to form concrete-filled double steel tubular (CFDST) columns. The influences of preloads acting on the steel tubes on the structural responses of slender square CFDST columns have not been investigated either experimentally or numerically. This paper presents a fiber-based computational model for the determination of the interaction behavior of local and global buckling in axially and eccentrically loaded CFDST thin-walled square slender columns including preload effects. The computational modeling method accounts for …


Experimental And Numerical Investigations Of Eccentrically Loaded Rectangular Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Columns, Mizen Ahmed, Qing Quan Liang, Vipulkumar I. Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi Jan 2020

Experimental And Numerical Investigations Of Eccentrically Loaded Rectangular Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Columns, Mizen Ahmed, Qing Quan Liang, Vipulkumar I. Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi

Rectangular concrete-filled double steel tubular (CFDST) columns have increasingly been utilized in high-rise buildings to support heavy loads. However, the responses of eccentrically loaded rectangular CFDST short columns have rarely been studied. This paper reports experimental and numerical investigations into the behavior of rectangular thin-walled short CFDST columns composed of a rectangular inner steel tube loaded eccentrically. Tests on rectangular and square CFDST short columns under eccentric loading and axial loading were carried out to examine their responses to various design parameters, including the cross-sectional dimensions, loading eccentricity, and width-to-thickness ratios of the external and internal tubes. The experimental program …
