Abstract
This study intends to provide a simplified analytical model of the laterally confined concrete filled steel tube (CCFT) column system which adopts carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) jackets in order to make up for major defects of the traditional concrete filled steel tube (CFT) column system. This CCFT analytical model, by adding one additional parameter for CFRP confinement to the CFT column analytical solution, is greatly simplified and expedites the analytical processes to explain the stress-strain relationship of the CCFT column system. In the study, several types of the CCFT column systems with different parameters are analyzed by the proposed simplified analytical model and its associated numerical program (USC-CFT). To verify the accuracy of the analytical model, this study compares the load-strain relationship calculated by USC-CFT both to the experimental results conducted by the traditional method and to the results calculated by the computer-aided finite element method (FEM) analysis method. This study shows equilibrium conditions, deformation compatibilities, constitutive models, and an analysis procedure used in the proposed simplified analytical solution and presents finite element models and analysis procedure used in FEM analysis.
