Behaviour of Composite Beam of CFST Truss with Diagonal Web Members

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents the results of an experimental program for a novel composite beam of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) truss with diagonal web members. This paper investigated the static performance and failure modes of the composite beam. Load-deformation relationships and deflection regulation of the test beam were obtained and its performance was evaluated in terms of its stiffness and bearing capacity. The strain distribution within critical components was also analyzed. The experimental results showed that the composite beam of CFST truss with diagonal web members has high strength and ductility performance. It markedly improves the stiffness and strength of the composite beam of CFST truss with straight web members
