Abstract
This paper presents a trilinear restoring force model based on the test results of two square concrete-filled steel tubular (CFT) stub columns without binding bars and eight square CFT stub columns with binding bars subjected to constant axial load and cyclic lateral load. The effects of binding bars and axial load level on the specimens are considered to determine the feature points of the skeleton curves. Calculation formulas for the characteristic parameters of the model, including the yield load, the peak load and the ultimate load, are given by analyzing the influence of the confinement factor of steel tube, the confinement coefficient of binding bars and the axial load level. Additionally, the hysteretic rule under cyclic lateral load is confirmed. The predicted hysteretic cures and skeleton curves based on the proposed model are in good agreement with the experimental results.
