Response of Concrete Filled Carbon Sheet Tube Column under Axial and Lateral Loads

Article Preview

Abstract:

Experimental tests have been conducted to investigate the performance of Concrete Filled Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Sheet Tube (CFCST) columns. The main variables of this experimental program were the number and wrapping angles of CFRP sheets. In the first stage, stress versus strain characteristic of CFCST specimens was investigated by uni-axial tests. In the second stage, six full-scaled CFCST columns subjected to quasi-static lateral loading, as well as constant axial compression, were tested. The test results showed that the response of CFCST was seriously influenced by these two variables. This test results could be utilized for establishing the analytical models.
