Abstract
This study aimed at predicting the structural behavior of high-strength square CFT (concrete-filled steel tube) columns. First, the material models of the existing steel tube and concrete were compared, and a nonlinear fiber element analysis method was proposed. To verify the proposed fiber element analysis method, the behavior of CFT columns made from high-strength materials was investigated experimentally. CFT members consisted of high-strength steel tubes (yield strength; fy=913MPa) and high-strength concrete (fck=91.3 MPa). The moment-rotation relationships for hollow and concrete-filled steel tubes were compared. In addition, the P-M interaction diagrams for the experiment result and AISC-LRFD code provisions were compared. Finally, the result of the fiber element analyses was compared with the test results.
