description | Special-shaped concrete-filled steel tube (SS-CFST) columns can be embedded in the wall, thus preventing the columns from protruding. This feature makes it popular in steel residential buildings. This paper proposes a new special-shaped concrete-filled square steel tube (SS-CFSST) composite column composed of multiple square steel tubes connected by steel hoops to form L-, T- or cross-shaped sections. Eight specimens were tested under axial loads with section shape, construction method, slenderness ratio, steel tube thickness, and steel strength as variation parameters. The structural performance, such as failure modes, peak load, load–displacement curves, load–strain curves, and Poisson’s ratio of the steel tubes, were analyzed. The tests illustrated that the failure modes of hoop-type specimens and weld-type stub columns were mainly the local buckling of steel tubes and bending failure, and those of the weld-type slender columns were mainly overall bending failure. The load-carrying capacity of the hoop-type specimen was higher than that of the weld-type specimen with the same cross-sectional dimensions and slenderness ratio. Next, the stress–strain relationship model of core concrete in the SS-CFSST composite column was established by considering the restraint effect of the connection coincidence area of steel tubes and steel hoops on concrete. Additionally, the finite element model (FEM) of the column was established using this constitutive model. By comparing the failure modes, load–strain curves and bearing capacities obtained from the tests and FEM, the established FEM can accurately evaluate the mechanical properties of SS-CFSST composite columns with steel hoops under axial compression. |
