Abstract— Concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) structures

have been used widely in high-rise buildings and bridges due to the

efficiency of structurally favorable interaction between the steel

tube and the concrete core. In this research, a simplified statistical

method based on the results of 663 tests is developed to predict the

ultimate strength of circular CFST columns under concentric

loading conditions. This method considers the confinement effect

on the concrete and the influence of relative slenderness. The

standard deviation of the predictions by the current method is very

close to those predicted by the Eurocode 4 and the Chinese CECS

methods. Therefore this simplified method is a good alternative to

other prediction methods. However, the Chinese CECS method

tends to overestimate the ultimate load capacity when the

compressive strength of concrete is high.

I. INTRODUCTION

THE concrete filled steel tubular (CFST, and hereafter)

columns have been used widely in high-rise buildings and

bridges in recent years, such as the 56-storey (150m high) Two

Union Square in Seattle, Washington, the 43-storey (166m

high) Casselden Place in Melbourne, Australia and the

79-storey (355.8m high) SEG Plaza in Shenzhen, China. A

research by Chen et al. [1] shows that more than 200 CFST

arch-bridges had been built in China since 1990. More and more

CFST high-rise buildings will be built and become city

landmarks.

The commonly used cross section of CFST can be circular or

rectangular (mainly square). The concrete strength is improved

in tri-axial stressing state due to lateral confinement provided

the steel tube. Also the existence of concrete core prevents or

delays the steel tube from local buckling (i.e., deformation

towards core direction). The steel is located farthest to the

centroid of the CFST column so that maximum moment of

inertia can be achieved. Further more, the steel tube acts as a

permanent framework for concreting during the construction.

Consequently, the building can be ascended more quickly

compared to reinforced concrete structure since the steelwork

can precede the concrete by several stories [2]. Compared with

reinforced concrete (RC, and hereafter) bridges and steel

arch-bridges, CFST arch-bridge presents a more artistic

appearance and improved seismic resistance due to less

self-weight. Advance in erection and closure technologies in

bridge construction further accelerates the implementation of

CFST members.

The performance of CFST columns is affected by the

slenderness ratio. Many authors agree that L/D=15 generally

marks a rough boundary between short and long column

behavior [2]. According to JSCE [3], if L/D exceeds 35, the

influence of lateral displacement should be considered for the

composite column. The confinement effect is significant in short

columns but negligible in short ones due to overall buckling.

The influence of diameter to thickness ratio (D/t) was also

heavily studied [4]-[6]. In short, both geometrical parameters

and material characteristics should be considered when

calculating the axial strength of CFST columns.

A lot of design methods have been proposed based on

different consideration of the slenderness influence and the

confinement effect on the ultimate load capacity (UL, and

hereafter) of CFST columns. A comparison by Giakoumelis et

al. [7] showed that the EC4 [8] provided a better prediction than

the ACI [9] and the AS [10] codes. Comparative studies carried

out by Muhammad et al. [11] and Ma et al. [12] showed that the

LRFD [13] and ACI were too conservative and the Chinese

CECS Code [14] gave good predictions in terms of both mean

value and standard deviation; the EC4 gave the “best” [12]

prediction. The discrepancy largely comes from the limit

number of test data available.

With more and more experiments be done, it is now possible

to find out statistically the relationship between the UL and the

columns configurations. Therefore the aim of this research is to

develop a simplified prediction method based on a large number

of test data available.

II. DEVELOPMENT OF A SIMPLIFIED STATISTICAL

METHOD FOR PREDICTING THE AXIAL LOAD

CAPACITY OF CIRCULAR CFST COLUMNS

A. The Definition of the UL

Researchers have different interpretation of the UL of a

CFST column. Cai [15] used the maximum load capacity

attained as the UL. Han [16] and Li et al.[17] defined the UL as

the load when a certain axial strain limit is reached. Miao [18]

defined the UL as the load when a cut through crack is formed,

which is difficult to measure. In this research, the UL is defined

as the maximum load attained.

B. The Selection of Parameters

As reviewed above, there are lots of UL predictions methods

available. These methods consider the geometrical and material

configuration of the CFST columns in different ways. Only the

EC4 method and the Chinese CECS method are briefly

discussed here.

CECS code specification

In the CECS code, the basic requirements for the CFST

structural members are: a) mmD 100 ; b) mmt 14 ; c)

3/3.0 ccaa AfAf ; d) D/t should be in the range

of af/23585~15 , which depends on the type of steel

used; e) Dl / should not exceed a permissible limit, which is

20 for CFST columns.

The UL of CFST columns is calculated by

The parameters used in this research

It can be seen from above that both the EC4 and the CECS

consider the confinement effect and the strength reduction by

slenderness. The CECS considers the confinement effect

equally on the steel tube and the concrete core

by aacc AfAf , which can be reflected by the steel and

concrete capacity ratio, . However, in the EC4, the

confinement effect caused axial strength reduction on the steel

tube by 2 and strength gain on the concrete core by

ca ffDt //1 . The 1 and 2 are determined by the

relative slenderness, , instead of . The confinement effect

does reduce with length of column due to lateral buckling, but it

is unclear why is not included in the EC4 method. The

buckling resistance is taken into account in the CECS by

arbitrarily restricting the ratio of l/D; while in the EC4, the

buckling reduction factor is derived analytically from the stress

at an admissible deflection at mid-height [19], which seems

more reasonable.

Despite of the different concepts behind the CECS and the

EC4 methods, both methods cab be used to obtain reasonable

prediction of the UL of CFST columns. Therefore, in this study,

the used in the CECS and the used in the EC4 are chosen

as governing parameters to predict the UL of CFST columns. It

is assumed that the confinement strengthening effect and

slenderness influence can be attributed to a single factor, ,

acting on the concrete core alone. The is assumed to be a

second order function of and , which is derived

statistically from a large number of test results.

C. Development Of the Simplified Statistical Method for The

UL Prediction

In order to develop a simplified method for predicting the UL

of the circular CFST columns subject to concentric loading, a

total of 663 test data (listed in Table I) extracted from [20] are

adopted. The selected data are those axially loaded circular

specimens categorized with “no moment” unless otherwise

specified. The following two steps are applied to obtain a

simplified expression.

Step 1. Calculating the relative slenderness, . If 1 ,

then the buckling load is taken as the ultimate load capacity of

the column, that is, cru NN ; otherwise, go on to Step 2.

Step 2. Assuming the confinement and the slenderness effects

can be attributed to a single coefficient, , acting on the

concrete only, that is,

ccaau fAfAN (12)

The parameter can be interpreted as a factor transforming

equivalently the confinement and slenderness effects into

concrete. To make the expression simple, only the second order

expression of is assumed as given in Eq. (13). The term

3a in the equation considers the coupled effect of the two

parameters.

From the specimen specifications and test results of the 663

tests, a series of ' can be calculated. Then, with the

' obtained, the coefficients 51 ~ aa in Eq. (13) can be

evaluated using the second order curve fitting function,

polyfit(), in the MATLAB. Finally the can be approximately

calculated by

(14)

The UL predictions of all the 663 tests by this model as well

as the EC4 and the CECS methods are listed in Table I. The

predictions by all the methods agree well with the test data. The

standard error deviations by using the current method, the EC4

method and the CECS method are 0.1386, 0.1306 and 0.1846,

respectively. The predictions by the current method and the EC4

method are close to each other. The error predicted by the CECS

seems a bit greater, however, this is because of the CECS

method is only applicable to those with MPafc 80,30

[21]. The CECS tends to overestimate the UL for high strength

concrete columns. The comparison shows that the current

method is a good alternative to the other methods.

Apart from the 663 tests, to evaluate the accuracy of the

prediction using the current method, the UL of three CFST

columns tested by Huang et al. [22] (see Table II) are also

calculated using the current method. The comparison listed in

Table II shows the current method gives very good prediction of

the UL of the CFST columns tested.

III. CONCLUSION

In this research a simplified statistical method is developed to

predict the ultimate load capacity of circular CFST columns

subject to concentric loading. The statistically based method

assumes a single correction factor acting on the concrete core

alone to account for the coupled effect of confinement effect

and slenderness influence on the ultimate load capacity of

circular CFST columns. This is done by second order curve

fitting of two parameters, the steel/concrete capacity ratio, ,

used in the CECS and the relative slenderness, , used in the

EC4, based on 663 test results. It is shown that the predictions

by this method agree well with the test results and those

predicted by the EC4 and the CECS methods. Therefore, the

current method provides an alternative way to evaluate the

ultimate strength of circular CFST columns in structural design.
