Flexural And Cyclic Behaviour Of Hollow And Concrete-Filled Steel Tubes, S. Arivalagan, S. Kandasamy Nov 2010

Flexural And Cyclic Behaviour Of Hollow And Concrete-Filled Steel Tubes, S. Arivalagan, S. Kandasamy

CCFSS Proceedings of International Specialty Conference on Cold-Formed Steel Structures (1971 - 2018)

This paper presents a study on the flexural and cyclic behaviour of concrete filled steel hollow beam sections. The specimens in-filled with normal mix concrete, fly ash concrete, quarry waste concrete and low strength concrete (Brick-bat-lime concrete) and hollow steel sections were tested. Measurements of strains and deflections were made under two-point loading. A theoretical model was also developed to predict the moment carrying capacity. The capacities of the beams were compared with the ultimate capacity obtained using the international standards EC4-1994, ACI-2002 and AISC-LRFD-1999. The result of the experimental investigation showed that the moment carrying capacity increases based on …
