This paper presents the difference in behavior between hollow-core fiber reinforced polymer-concrete-steel (HC-FCS) columns and conventional reinforced concrete (RC) columns under vehicle collision in terms of dynamic and static forces. The HC-FCS column consisted of an outer FRP tube, an inner steel tube, and a concrete shell sandwiched between the two tubes. The steel tube was hollow inside a...

Composite concrete Filled Tubular Steel (CFT) members, which have excellent deformability due to the well-known confined and constrained interaction between steel tube concrete, largely been utilized as bridge piers or columns in high-rise buildings, resulting increased strength decreased column size. This study examined experimental performance of filled with reactive powder (RPC) under axial ...

At present, there is a lack of research on the influence different dynamic constitutive models steel and concrete mechanical properties concrete-filled tubular (CFST) columns under lateral impact. In this paper, A comprehensive numerical study effects impact response CFST was conducted. The with strengths were divided into four categories, namely, normal-strength steel, high-strength concrete. ...

Abstract Under axial compression, the present article analyses and compares behaviour of Plain Concrete filled Nano Silica modified concrete with light gauge steel rectangular columns. In 18 work samples, plain nano silica-modified was tested on sections. Investigations were conducted into several essential variables, including geometry cross-section, tubular thickness steel, depth-to-thickness...

The use of composite materials is an effective technique to enhance the capacity of reinforced concrete columns subjected to the seismic loading due to their high tensile strength. In this paper, numerical models are developed in order to predict the experimental behavior of square reinforced concrete columns strengthened by glass fiber reinforced polymer and steel bars and unstrengthened colum...
