Compression Performance and Calculation Method of Thin-Walled Prefabricated Steel Tube Lightweight Concrete Columns

To investigate the axial compression performance of cold-formed thin-walled steel tube lightweight concrete columns, the compressive test was carried out on four groups of 12 specimens. And the effects of factors such as section size, concrete strength, and steel content of the members on the axial compression bearing capacity were investigated. The results show that (1) the main failure of the cold-formed thin-walled steel lightweight concrete column is the local buckling of the steel wall and crushed of the core concrete. The presence of infill concrete suppressed and delayed the buckling of the tube wall. (2) The bearing capacity of cold-formed thin-walled steel lightweight concrete columns increases with the strength of the infill concrete. When the slenderness ratio is same, the bearing capacity and ductility of the columns with more steel content are higher than those of lower steel content. (3) The calculation method of the bearing capacity for the cold-formed thin-walled steel lightweight concrete column was proposed and verified.
