Abstract

In order to study the bending-shear performance of CFRP concrete-filled steel tubes, static tests were conducted on 15 circular concrete-filled CFRP steel tube bending-shear specimens. For all specimens, Ds was 120 mm, ts was 2 mm, and ml was 1. The shear displacement (V-Δ) curve of the specimen and the collaborative work between the steel tube and CFRP are discussed. ABAQUS was applied to simulate the V-Δ curve and failure mode of the specimen. We explored the effects of CFRP layers, material strength, the steel ratio, and the shear span ratio on the bending-shear performance of components. The experimental results show that a steel tube and CFRP can work together. As the shear span ratio increased, the bearing capacity and stiffness of the specimen decreased. An increase in the number of transverse CFRP layers could improve the bearing capacity of the specimen, but it had no significant effect on the stiffness. Calculating the elastic stage stiffness and bearing capacity of 15 short columns of test and FE curves revealed an average error of 6.71% and a mean square error of 0.83 for the elastic stage stiffness. The simulation results of the established finite element model are in good agreement with the experimental results. The average error of the bearing capacity was 3.88%, with a mean square error of 0.94. Based on experimental and finite element results, the moment shear correlation equation for concrete-filled CFRP steel tube bending-shear members is presented.
