Reinforced concrete columns of variable cross section
… carried out on pin-ended reinforced concrete columns are reported. The columns tested had either tapered rectangular sections along the length or octagonal cross sections. All columns, except the last 6, were subjected to uniaxial eccentricities at one of the ends (the stronger end), and a …

Behaviour of elliptical tube columns filled with self-compacting concrete
… to investigate the behaviour of elliptical tube columns filled with self-compacting concrete (SCC). In total, ten specimens, including two empty columns, were tested to failure. The main parameters investigated were the length and the sections of the columns, and the concrete compressive …

A Modified AISC P -M Interaction Curve for Square Concrete Filled Tube Beam -Columns
Concrete filled tube (CFT) columns have been in the spotlight over the world for the last decades due to their excellent performance. Although CFT members have many advantages over other structural systems, they have not been widely used in the U.S., mainly because of the lack of knowledge about …

Characterization of behavior of steel-concrete composite members and frames with applications for design
Steel-concrete composite frames are seeing increased use in practice. Their excellent structural characteristics, including high strength, stiffness, and ductility, make them an appealing option for many building configurations. However, there exist gaps in the knowledge of behavior and the design …

Behavior of hollow-core fiber reinforced polymer-concrete-steel bridge columns under extreme loading
… polymer-concrete-steel (HC-FCS) bridge columns under extreme loading. The HC-FCS column consists of a concrete wall sandwiched between an outer fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) tube and an inner steel tube. The steel tube was embedded into a reinforced concrete footing with an embedded …
