The theory of vacuum preloading was mainly focused on calculations of settlement and consolidation degree, but not on the bearing capacity improvement under vacuum preloading. Based on the Mohr-Coulombs failure criterion and elastic-plastic theory, the formula of bearing capacity improvement of vacuum preloading foundation was deduced under undrained condition. The consolidation and vacuum attenuation degree were taken into the consideration, and a calculation formula with fewer parameters by using CU total stress strength index was derived. Meanwhile the relation between bearing capacity and undrained shear strength was presented as well as that of bearing capacity and vertical effective stress increment.
Considering the strain rate then puts forward the modified uniaxial dynamic constitutive model related to strain rate in concrete-filled square steel tube and the modified calculation results match well with the experimental results. Based on the above conclusion, uniaxial compression performance finite element analysis with different strain rate among 10-5/s–10-3/s is completed, the results showed that strain rate can obviously change the dynamic performance of the concrete-filled square steel tube. Through the analysis of the influencing factors of the core concrete compressive strength, it is showed that with the increasing of the strain rate and the improving of concrete strength, the ultimate bearing capacity of concrete-filled square steel tube is higher and the ductility is reduced. With the increasing of stirrup ratio, ultimate bearing capacity is greater and the ductility is enhanced. With the sectional dimensions increasing, the ultimate bearing capacity is greater and the ductility is enhanced.
