- Abstract
- The use of external confining devices to confine concrete has become widely used. One of the purposes is to gain additional concrete strength and ductility. Although there are many types of external confining devices, in this paper, the attention is limited to the use of the steel tube as an external confining device. One of the main objectives of this research is to study the plastic dilation rate behavior of concrete-filled-steel-tube (CFST) columns. The experimental data for the plastic dilation rate is extracted, and compared with the authors concrete plasticity model. In the authors’ previous research, the calibration of the plastic dilation rate model was based on confined concrete tested under both active and passive confinement using FRP wraps. Since the behavior of the steel tube and the FRP materials are different, the author’s plastic dilation rate model needs to be re-evaluated for CFST columns. Comparisons of the extracted experimental plastic dilation rates with the model prediction for CFST specimens with normal strength concrete show good agreement and requires no adjustment in the formulation. However, for a specimen with 80 MPa concrete, the proposed formulation shows slightly lower plastic dilation rates. More experimental data for CFST using high strength concretes is required for further investigation. For the sake of completeness, the overall response of two CFST specimens is also evaluated using an in-house three-dimensional non-linear finite element analysis (3D-NLFEA) using the author’s proposed plasticity formulation for confined concrete.
