Abstract

Reinforced concrete-filled thin-walled galvanized corrugated steel tube (RCFCST) is a novel composite member that is particularly proposed to strengthen the seismic and anti-corrosive performance of conventional reinforced concrete (RC) members. The individual compressive, flexural, shear, and torsional behaviour of such members have been addressed previously. In practice, the combined loading conditions are a common occurrence when subjected to winds or earthquakes; however, the cyclic combined bending-torsion behaviour of the proposed RCFCSTs is unclear and the correlation relationship between the cyclic flexural and torsional bearing capacities has not been determined. This paper therefore presents an investigation of the RCFCSTs under cyclic combined bending-torsion loads experimentally. The failure modes, hysteretic curves, ductility, energy dissipation capacity, and stiffness/strength degradations are analyzed comparably. The dependence of the seismic behaviour of RCFCSTs on both the torsion-to-bending moment ratios and torsional directions has been explained. The cumulative damage effects due to the cyclic loading mode have been carefully addressed by comparing them with the previous monotonic tests. The applicability of the simplified calculation methods for the correlation relationship between ultimate bending moments and ultimate torques is examined for the proposed RCFCST member.

期刊介绍： Thin-walled structures comprises an important and growing proportion of engineering construction with areas of application becoming increasingly diverse, ranging from aircraft, bridges, ships and oil rigs to storage vessels, industrial buildings and warehouses. Many factors, including cost and weight economy, new materials and processes and the growth of powerful methods of analysis have contributed to this growth, and led to the need for a journal which concentrates specifically on structures in which problems arise due to the thinness of the walls. This field includes cold– formed sections, plate and shell structures, reinforced plastics structures and aluminium structures, and is of importance in many branches of engineering. The primary criterion for consideration of papers in Thin–Walled Structures is that they must be concerned with thin–walled structures or the basic problems inherent in thin–walled structures. Provided this criterion is satisfied no restriction is placed on the type of construction, material or field of application. Papers on theory, experiment, design, etc., are published and it is expected that many papers will contain aspects of all three.
