Axial Compression Performance Test and Bearing Capacity Calculation Method of Square Steel Tube–Timber–Concrete Composite L-Shaped Columns
2024
Overview
The square steel tube–timber–concrete composite L-shaped columns are lighter in weight due to the inclusion of wood and exhibit superior seismic performance. This combination not only reduces transportation and labor costs but also enhances earthquake resistance. The wood contributes lightness and flexibility, the steel provides strength, and the concrete offers excellent compressive performance, thereby achieving an optimized design for performance. To investigate the axial compression performance of square steel tube–timber–concrete composite L-shaped short columns, axial compression tests were conducted on eight groups of L-shaped columns. The study examined ultimate load, failure modes, load–displacement relationships, initial stiffness, ductility, and bearing capacity improvement factors under different slenderness ratios, steel tube wall thicknesses, and wood content rates. The results show that the mechanical performance of the composite columns is excellent. Local buckling of the steel tube is the primary failure mode, with ‘bulging bands’ forming at the middle and ends. When the wood content reaches 25%, the synergy between the steel tube, concrete, and wood is optimal, significantly enhancing ductility and bearing capacity. The ductility of the specimen increased by 31.1%, and the bearing capacity increased by 4.14%. The bearing capacity increases with the steel tube wall thickness but decreases with increasing slenderness ratio. Additionally, based on the Mander principle and considering the partitioned constraint effects of concrete, a simplified calculation method for the axial compressive bearing capacity was proposed using the superposition principle. This method was validated to match well with the test results and can provide a reference for the design and application of these composite L-shaped columns.
