Abstract: This study proposes a through-beam composite joint system to connect square concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns and concrete-filled U-shaped steel (CFUS) beams. In the joint system, channel-shaped holes in the ...

Abstract: The membrane structure has been applied throughout different fields such as civil engineering, biology, and aeronautics, among others. In many applications, large deflections negate linearizing assumptions, and linear modes ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a joint system that connects the thin-walled square reinforced concrete–filled steel tube (RCFST) column to RC beams at both sides of the joint. In order to delay the local buckling of square steel tubes ...

Abstract: Small-scale physical model tests have been increasingly used to study the thermomechanical soil–pile interaction, but existing model piles are highly simplified and do not have representative thermal properties or the ...

Abstract: This study utilized a heat-moisture coupling model to characterize the internal microenvironment of concrete and establish the relationship between environmental temperature, humidity, external chloride ions, corrosion ...
