The document summarizes an experimental study on the bond strength between self-compacting concrete and steel tubes in concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns. 27 push-out tests were conducted on circular CFST specimens varying cross-sectional dimensions, steel type, concrete type (normal vs self-compacting), concrete age, and height-to-diameter ratio. A literature review covered previous studies investigating effects of dimensions, steel type, concrete strength and interfaces on bond strength. The objectives were to use self-compacting concrete in CFSTs, determine bond strength for different ratios and properties, and model bond strength prediction.
This document reviews research on the bond strength between steel and concrete in concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs). It summarizes several studies that investigated factors affecting bond strength like cross-sectional dimensions, steel type, concrete properties, temperature, and interface characteristics. The review finds that 70% of bond strength comes from friction at the interface, while 30% comes from chemical adhesion and mechanical interlocking. It also identifies ways to improve bond strength, such as using expansive concrete, increasing concrete strength, and adding perforations to the steel tube interior.

Abstract
Concrete filled steel tubular columns are gaining its popularity in engineering practice. However, local buckling is the main criteria which effects on strength and ductility for the composite columns. In order to enhance their overall performance, one of the most effective measures is to provide stiffeners for the steel tubes. In the present research, experimental studies have been devoted to investigating the behavior of self-compacting Concrete Filled Steel Tube (CFST) stub columns strengthened by single or double stiffeners. A total of 36 stub columns specimen under monotonic compression load were tested in order to discover the best configuration of column system where (specimen having zero stiffeners, single stiffener, double stiffeners) each for hollow steel and with SCC in-filled are tested for 7 days, 28 days and 56 days strength with circular cross-sections of dimensions 300mm height x100mm diameter x 2mm thickness. The experimental results indicated that the use of Stiffeners strengthen the CFST has a significant effect on the overall behavior of CFST such as enhancement on its strength and ductility. Also the Stiffeners confinement delays local buckling of steel tube, prevents a sudden strength reduction caused by the local buckling of the steel tube, and increases lateral confinement of the concrete core. It is found that the best configuration of Stiffeners in the Steel tubes is providing it in transverse direction with single and double stiffeners at a height of h/2 and h/3 respectively.
Concrete filled steel tubes subjected to axial compressioneSAT Journals
Abstract Concrete-filled steel tubular columns have excellent earth-quake resistant properties such as high strength and ductility and large energy absorption capacity. For concrete-filled steel tubes (CFST), local buckling commonly observed in bare steel columns is effectively prevented, giving a higher capacity. However if the concrete core and the steel tube are loaded simultaneously the steel tube expands more than the concrete core under moderate loads since Poisson’s ratio is higher for the steel section. The objective of this paper is To evaluate the accuracy of codal design approach by comparing experimental results with the analytical results obtained using EC4, ACI-318 and AISC-LRFD, for prediction of load carrying capacity of CFST columns under axial compression. Based on this the experimental programme is conducted on concrete filled steel tubes of length 300mm, thickness 1 to 3mm for circular, square and rectangular cross section with three different grades of concrete.200 T capacity Compression testing machine is used for experimental investigation.. The experimental results are compared with analytical results obtained by stated code of practices. From this it is concluded that EC4 gives conservative results. From which it is observed that EC4 gives conservative results with experimental results and it is concluded that EC4 provisions may be used for further analytical study to develop an expression to predict the section capacity CFST columns. As the grade of concrete increases the load carrying capacity is also increases. This paper presents the details of study carried out and the conclusions arrived.

This document discusses a study that analyzed the buckling behavior of composite concrete-filled steel tube columns with different parameters. The study used finite element analysis to model composite columns with double I-beam cross sections. It investigated the effects of eccentric loading, slenderness ratio, and distance between steel profiles on buckling capacity. The results showed that filling steel sections with concrete delays steel yielding and increases column capacity. Greater concrete surface area and lower slenderness ratio also led to higher strength due to increased confinement effects.

The Concrete Filled Steel Tube (CFST) member has many advantages compared with the conventional concrete structural member. This study presents on the behaviour of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns under axial load by changing parameters. The parameters are thickness of steel tube, Grade of concrete and length of column. The study was conducted using ANSYS 13 finite element software. All the columns are 60 X 60 mm in size. The thickness of the tube is taken as 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 mm for thickness variation. The grades of concrete infill are M25, M30, M40, M50, M60 and M70 used for grade variation. Lengths of columns are taken as 900, 1200, 1500, 1800, 2100, and 2400 mm for length variation. Buckling load is compared with Euro code 4 (1994).
This is my M.Tech Project presentation. The project was carried out at R.V College of Engineering and B.M.S College of Engineering, Bangalore. In this project, the axial load carrying capacity of CFST Columns was studied and the experimental results were compared with Eurocode-4 and AISC-LRFD-2005.

The document presents a finite element analysis of concrete filled steel tube (CFT) beams subjected to flexure. A numerical model was developed using ANSYS to predict the flexural behavior and moment capacity of circular and rectangular CFT beams. The model considered the material properties of steel and concrete, and incorporated the interaction between concrete and steel. Results of the numerical analysis for moment capacity were compared to experimental data. For circular CFT beams, the predicted capacities matched well with experimental values. The analysis showed rectangular CFTs can provide good confinement of the concrete core.
This document presents an experimental and analytical study comparing the structural behavior of composite concrete slabs with profiled steel decking. 18 full-scale slab specimens were tested under different shear span lengths to evaluate the longitudinal shear bond strength between the concrete and steel deck.

The document provides an overview of corrosion of steel in concrete. It discusses how steel is usually protected from corrosion by the alkaline environment of concrete but can corrode due to carbonation or chloride attack breaking down the protective layer. The corrosion process involves steel dissolving at the anode and oxygen being consumed at the cathode. This leads to a volume increase and the formation of rust, causing cracking and spalling of concrete. It also describes "black rust" that can occur in low-oxygen conditions without visible damage. The document aims to explain the basics of corrosion mechanisms to help understand investigation and repair techniques.

It summarizes research on their static, dynamic, and fire performance, as well as construction and durability. Design criteria from different codes are examined and examples of CFST applications in buildings, bridges, and other structures are provided.
Effect of corrosion on concrete reinforcement mechanical and physical 2IAEME Publication
The document summarizes an experimental study on the effect of corrosion on the mechanical and physical properties of steel reinforcement bars in concrete. Three types of steel bars were tested: plain, deformed, and epoxy-coated deformed bars embedded in concrete with varying strengths and water-cement ratios. The bars were subjected to accelerated corrosion testing and evaluated at different corrosion stages. The results showed that corrosion reduced the yield stress, tensile strength, and ductility of the bars. It also decreased the mass, rib height, and cross-sectional area of the bars. The study demonstrated that corrosion negatively impacts the strength and durability of reinforced concrete structures over time.

This document presents an experimental study that analyzed the behavior of recycled aggregate concrete filled steel tube (RACFST) columns under different loading conditions. Eighteen RACFST specimens were tested with two concrete grades (30 MPa and 40 MPa) and three diameter-to-thickness ratios (25.283, 32.598, 38.948). The test results showed that the diameter-to-thickness ratio had a greater influence on the compression behavior than other factors like concrete strength or loading rate. The stiffness of RACFST specimens was strongly influenced by the ratio compared to the influence of concrete strength or loading rate. A finite element model was also developed and verified using the experimental results.

The purpose of the experimental work presented in this study is to study the effect
of concrete compressive strength and steel reinforcement ratio on capacity and
deflection of reinforced concrete two-way slabs. Three steel reinforcement ratios are
considered which are minimum, maximum and average of them in addition to two
concrete compressive strength
values of 20 and 30 MPa. The results from
experimental work show that increasing the reinforcing steel ratio leads to increase the
ultimate capacity of the slab in addition to decrease the maximum deflection. For slabs
with
= 20 MPa, increasing the reinforcing steel ratio from the minimum to the
maximum, i.e. 600 %, leads to increase ultimate capacity by about 156 % and decrease
maximum deflection by about 52 %. Wheras, For slabs with
= 30 MPa, increasing
the reinforcing steel ratio from the minimum to the maximum, i.e. 900 %, leads to
increase ultimate capacity by about 155 % and decrease maximum central deflection
by about 27 %. In addition, matmatical expresions for load-deflection relationships are
presented in the current study
This study used finite element analysis to model concrete-filled steel tube beams that were partially wrapped with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. The objectives were to investigate how CFRP wrapping length and number of layers affected structural behavior. Models of square and circular cross-section beams were created and verified. The analysis found that beams wrapped along 50% of their length saw reduced capacity with additional CFRP layers due to delamination failures. Beams wrapped along 75-100% saw increased capacity with more CFRP layers up to their ultimate strengths. Circular beams saw better strength improvements than square beams when wrapped with 1-3 CFRP layers.
The document discusses concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns under axial compressive loads. It summarizes that CFST columns have higher load capacity than hollow steel tubes due to the composite action between steel and concrete. Experimental tests were conducted on circular and square CFST columns with varying concrete grades and heights. The results showed that square CFST columns had higher load capacity than circular columns. Ultimate load also increased with higher concrete grade. Failure modes included local and overall buckling. CFST columns provide advantages like increased strength, reduced construction costs, and improved fire resistance compared to reinforced concrete columns.

The purpose of the experimental work presented in this study is to study the effect
of concrete compressive strength and steel reinforcement ratio on capacity and
deflection of reinforced concrete two-way slabs. Three steel reinforcement ratios are
considered which are minimum, maximum and average of them in addition to two
concrete compressive strength
values of 20 and 30 MPa. The results from
experimental work show that increasing the reinforcing steel ratio leads to increase the
ultimate capacity of the slab in addition to decrease the maximum deflection. For slabs
with
= 20 MPa, increasing the reinforcing steel ratio from the minimum to the
maximum, i.e. 600 %, leads to increase ultimate capacity by about 156 % and decrease
maximum deflection by about 52 %. Wheras, For slabs with
= 30 MPa, increasing
the reinforcing steel ratio from the minimum to the maximum, i.e. 900 %, leads to
increase ultimate capacity by about 155 % and decrease maximum central deflection
by about 27 %. In addition, matmatical expresions for load-deflection relationships are
presented in the current study
This study used finite element analysis to model concrete-filled steel tube beams that were partially wrapped with carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. The objectives were to investigate how CFRP wrapping length and number of layers affected structural behavior. Models of square and circular cross-section beams were created and verified. The analysis found that beams wrapped along 50% of their length saw reduced capacity with additional CFRP layers due to delamination failures. Beams wrapped along 75-100% saw increased capacity with more CFRP layers up to their ultimate strengths. Circular beams saw better strength improvements than square beams when wrapped with 1-3 CFRP layers.
The document discusses concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns under axial compressive loads. It summarizes that CFST columns have higher load capacity than hollow steel tubes due to the composite action between steel and concrete. Experimental tests were conducted on circular and square CFST columns with varying concrete grades and heights. The results showed that square CFST columns had higher load capacity than circular columns. Ultimate load also increased with higher concrete grade. Failure modes included local and overall buckling. CFST columns provide advantages like increased strength, reduced construction costs, and improved fire resistance compared to reinforced concrete columns.

Flexural and Torsional Behavior of Concrete Filled Tubular Flange GirderIRJET Journal
This document summarizes research on concrete filled tubular flange girders (CFTFGs). CFTFGs have a steel tube filled with concrete as the upper flange, which increases stiffness and allows the section to carry more load compared to a standard steel beam. The document reviews several studies that analyzed the flexural and torsional behavior of CFTFGs using finite element analysis and experiments. The studies found that filling the flange with concrete improves strength and stability. However, the moment capacity is reduced under axial tensile forces in the steel. The concrete filling also limits the axial tensile resistance to the plastic capacity of the steel alone.

IRJET- Experimental Study on Bond Behavior of Steel Fiber Reinforced Self...IRJET Journal
The document presents an experimental study on the bond behavior of steel fiber reinforced self-compacting expansive concrete filled PVC tubes. Three variables are considered: concrete type (normal self-compacting concrete vs expansive self-compacting concrete), PVC tube thickness (2.5mm, 4mm, 6mm), and steel fiber volume percentage (0%, 0.5%, 1%). Test results show that expansive self-compacting concrete specimens have higher bond strength than normal self-compacting concrete specimens. Bond strength also increases with increasing PVC tube thickness. The addition of steel fibers at 1% volume fraction increases bond strength, but 0.5% decreases bond strength due to restraint of concrete expansion.

Strengthening of reinforced concrete beam using steel fiber at different dept...eSAT Journals
Abstract
This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation for enhancing the shear and ultimate strength capacities of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using steel fiber at different depths. Ultimate loads, load-deflection curves, cracking and crushing patterns have been compared with those of the RC beams without steel fiber henceforth noted as controlled beam. A total of four sets of experiments each having three concrete beams, one set control beam and three sets with randomly distributed discrete steel fiber at different depths henceforth noted as fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) beam, were performed to determine the most economical structure in the perspective of ultimate strength and shear capacity. From the test results, it was found that incorporation of steel fiber in RC beams have shown to be effective in enhancing the shear strength capacity. It has also been observed that the strength increases with the use of varying depth of steel fiber. Beam strengthened using this scheme has shown 20% increase in shear strength and ultimate load in comparison to controlled beam.

Comparative Analysis between Tube in Tube Structure and Conventional Moment R...IRJET Journal
This document compares the performance of a conventional moment resisting frame structure to a tube-in-tube steel structure through computer modeling and analysis. Five 50-story building models are analyzed: a conventional frame, two tube-in-tube structures with different column spacing, and two tube-in-tube structures with additional X bracing. The analyses indicate that the tube-in-tube structures perform better in resisting lateral loads but have greater displacements. Reducing column spacing and adding bracing in the tube-in-tube models increases their stiffness and decreases displacements and drift, while increasing base shear and accelerations. The tube-in-tube structure with close column spacing and bracing provides the best performance against static and dynamic loads

Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
