This study focuses on performance of H-shaped steel beams to CFT column rigid connections. To this end, the effects of internal and external stiffeners on hysteretic behavior of connections were studied. Comparative numerical analyses carried out on eight different connections. To this end finite element models were prepared using ANSYS and nonlinear cyclic analyses carried out. Results of this...

In this study, the behavior characteristics of I beam-to-concrete filled tube (CFT) column connection is studied through experiment and finite element models under the monotonic loading. To validate the finite element modeling, at first, an experimental model is made and experimented. After validation of the finite element modeling, different models were created in the software. The studied par...

a comparison between design codes i.e. aci and aisc-lrfd in evaluation of flexural strength of concrete filled steel tubular columns (cfts) is examined. for this purpose an analytical study on the response of cfts under axial-flexural loading is carried using three-dimensional finite elements with elasto-plastic model for concrete with cracking and crushing capability and elastoplastic kinemati...

This article evaluates and compares the punching shear behaviour of unbonded prestressed concrete (UPC) slab - concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) column connections/joints with that reinforced (RC) connection – CFT connections. The experimental program was carried out on five large-sized samples, including three UPC samples two RC samples. Steel plate details were utilised to increase bond betwee...

A growing body of experimental evidence suggests that the deposition behavior of microbial particles (e.g., bacteria and viruses) is inconsistent with the classical colloid filtration theory (CFT). Well-controlled laboratory-scale column deposition experiments were conducted with uniform model particles and collectors to obtain insight into the mechanisms that give rise to the diverging deposit...

This paper will focus on aspects of the advanced analysis and underlying behavior of composite structures with concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns. Through a detailed examination of the results of a suite of full-scale slender CFT beam-column tests, insight into the cyclic behavior of such members is gained, specifically pertaining to local buckling of the steel tube and the plastic hinge ...
