Cyclic Loading Test for Cast-in-Place Concrete-Filled Hollow Columns

Seismic behavior of normal-strength concrete-filled precast high-strength concrete centrifugal tube columns

“…Hence, large-sized concrete members are preferred to increase the stiffness of the structure, as well as to control deflection and vibration. In the construction of such buildings, the use of precast concrete (PC) structures may be beneficial because the onsite work, construction period, and costs can be significantly reduced when compared to cast-in-place reinforced concrete (RC) structures (Kim et al, 2016; Park, 1995). However, the heavy weight of the PC members causes transportation and lifting difficult.…”

“…In order to avoid the difficulty of installing and removing the internal mold and to improve the production efficiency, various methods such as centrifugal casting method (Choi et al, 2000; Hamada et al, 1998; Hosoya et al, 2001; Hosoya and Asano, 2000; Hosoya and Hukuyama, 2008; Masuda and Yoshioka, 1994; Shan et al, 2017; Zhang et al, 2018a), multiple internal molds (Ding et al, 2017; Wu et al, 2018; Xiao et al, 2012, 2013; Zhang et al, 2009), sequential concrete placements rotating a section (Iso et al, 1999; Kim et al, 2016; Lim et al, 2014), and thin steel plate internal molds (Kim et al, 2017; Lee et al, 2014; Park et al, 2015) have been adopted to fabricate PC tubes. All these methods could improve the production efficiency and structural safety.…”

“…Owing to the application of high-strength concrete, the structural behavior of the PC tube during construction can be improved. As a composite column, when the bond between the PC and filled concrete is insufficient, early delamination of the PC tube may occur, which decreases the seismic behavior, especially the energy dissipation capacity (Choi et al, 2000; Hamada et al, 1998; Hosoya and Asano, 2000; Iso et al, 1999; Kim et al, 2016). This phenomenon becomes more obvious when high-strength concrete is used.…”

“…As an alternative method, concrete-filled precast concrete tube (CFPCT) columns have elicited considerable attention because they provide an effective and economical solution to the above issues. In the past few decades, similar types of columns with various details have been investigated under different names such as half PC columns (Choi et al, 2000;Hamada et al, 1998), outer-shell PC columns (Hosoya et al, 2001;Hosoya and Asano, 2000;Hosoya and Hukuyama, 2008;Iso et al, 1999;Masuda and Yoshioka, 1994;Zhang et al, 2009), semi-PC columns (Xiao et al, 2012(Xiao et al, , 2013, concretefilled hollow PC columns (Kim et al, 2016(Kim et al, , 2017Lee et al, 2014;Lim et al, 2014;Park et al, 2015), or CFPCT columns (Ding et al, 2017;Shan et al, 2017;Wu et al, 2018;Zhang et al, 2018a). In this method, a PC tube can be prefabricated in factory, and after erecting the PC tube on site, a composite column composed of PC tube and filled concrete can be completed by filling the core with cast-in-place concrete.…”

Experimental Study Of Column-Fonudation Joint Using Semi-Precast System Subjected To Axial And Lateral Cyclic Loading

“…On the basis of the test results, design considerations for beam-CEFT column joints were recommended. Kim et.al [4] had conducted the research about the title of cyclic loading test for concrete-filled hollow precast concrete columns produced by using a new fabrication method. In this research, a new fabrication method is proposed for concretefilled hollow precast concrete columns (HPCC) as shown in Fig.…”
