ADVANCED ANALYSIS OF STEEL-CONCRETE COMPOSITE STRUCTURES - AN OVERVIEW

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to establish a framework for advanced analysis of composite frames of steel concrete by establishing basic models for CFST columns, composite beams and composite connections. This study focuses primarily on circular CFST columns, composite beams with headed shear clamps welded via profiled steel sheeting, & CFST columns with a composite beam that uses blind bolted endplate connections, such as CFST columns, composite beams and composite connections. In this paper, the experimental and numerical examinations of such members are examined (finite element models). This study provides an overview of prior and recent research on the inelastic secondary analysis of structures (advanced analysis). Finally, the literature assessment highlights potential study gaps and briefly discusses the necessity of addressing these research gaps.
