Abstract
Torsional test of aluminum foam-filled galvanized steel tube before and after high temperature is performed. The influence of temperature, porosity of aluminum foam and steel ratio on torsional behavior of aluminum foam galvanized steel tubes were analyzed. Experimental results showed that torsional curves of aluminum foam-filled galvanized steel tube before and after high temperature is similar, and can be divided into four stages: the elastic torsional stage, yield platform stage, descent stage and hardening stage; Its torsional load capacity decreases with increasing porosity of aluminum foam and increases at a higher steel content and slenderness ratio; after high temperature, torsional load capacity of galvanized steel tube decreased significantly. It was found that the strength reduction factor ratio under the elevated test temperature is higher than that recommended by British ECCS, Australian AS4100 and Chinese CECS 200-2006.
