Abstract: Thin-walled steel tubes are highly recommended to be used in concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns due to their economic benefits. However, the inherent difficulty of connections between the steel tube and foundation ...

Abstract: Vibration has become a serious serviceability problem due to the large openings of girder, lightweight floor systems, and high-strength materials used in practice. The results from both heel-drop and jumping floor vibration ...

Abstract: To study the shear behavior of the steel-block shear connector (SBSC) welded on a steel beam, eight push-out experiments were conducted, including two specimens with cast-in-place (CIP) concrete decks and six specimens ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an innovative thin-walled square concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) column with a circular/octagonal steel lining tube, in which the outer steel tube and the lining tube are fabricated independently ...

Abstract: An accurate determination on the acceleration response of a long-span and lightweight steel-concrete composite floor is essential for assessing the floor’s human-induced vibration serviceability, in which the interaction ...
