Abstract:

Double-skin tube column sections have been used extensively in recent years. These sections are composed of two adjacent, coaxially spaced steel casings, and the space in the middle of them is occupied with concrete. These CFDST columns behave similarly to CFST sections but are more rigid and have a lesser self-weight. The behavior of a novel type of CFDST column, the orbicular anchored CFDST column, was assessed under axial compression in the current research. It comprises an inside and an outside steel tube with orbicular rings near the ends of the columns. The orbicular rings were positioned at various spots such as [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] and a wide range of tests were accomplished to evaluate the functionality of orbicular anchored CFDST columns in respect of maximum load-bearing capability, load-strain behavior, and load-deformation behavior. A FE model was developed and its accuracy was authenticated by comparing its findings with experimental results. Furthermore, a parametric investigation was carried out employing the authenticated FE model to examine the functioning of the proposed CFDST to variations in orbicular position, cross-sectional dimensions of rings, yield strength of orbicular ring, etc. The outcomes of the study indicated that orbicular anchored CFDST columns had 15% higher ultimate load capacity than unstiffened counterparts. The orbicular anchorage improved the ductile response and increased the axial stiffness of the CFDST column. Further, it was concluded that orbicular rings enhanced the constraining effect of external steel casing on sandwiched concrete and improved the composite action of CFDST specimens. The design formula to ascertain the load-bearing ability of columns was also developed and can be employed amid preliminary designs of proposed column sections.
