Abstract:In this paper, based on the equivalent uniaxial stressstrain relationship for concretefilled Tshaped steel tube (CFTST) column without stiffening measures, a fiber element model computing program was adopted to investigate the effects of different parameters on the sectional strength of CFTST column under uniaxial eccentric load or biaxial eccentric load. The parameters in the analysis included the yield strength of steel, the compressive strength of concrete, the depth to thickness ratio of steel plate, the depth to width ratio of the sectional limb, the angle of the load and the axial load ratio. The results of theoretical analysis indicated that, the normalized strength interaction curve of axial load versus bending moment was obviously influenced by the load ratio carried by core concrete and the load angle; The normalized strength interaction curve of biaxial bending moments was distinctly influenced by the depth to width ratio of the sectional limb and the axial load ratio. On the assumption of full plastic stress distribution and the parametric regression analyses of a good many of numerical results, the simplified calculation methods were put forward to predict the sectional strength under uniaxial eccentric load or biaxial eccentric load. Good agreements between the values calculated by the simplified calculation methods and the values predicted by the fiber element model computing program were achieved, and the simplified calculation methods can be referred for practical engineering design.
