“…This element type was also applied to the stiffeners to ensure consistency in the modeling approach. The concrete components were represented using eight-node brick elements with reduced integration (C3D8R), in alignment with established modeling practices [45]. To achieve a detailed representation, elements measuring 20 mm in dimensions were selected for the modeling process [46].…”

The recent emergence of concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns represents a significant advancement in composite column technology. This innovative approach synergistically combines concrete and steel, where the steel tube acts as a confining medium that enhances the concrete's strength and ductility, while the concrete in turn mitigates the risk of both internal and local buckling in the steel tube. The primary benefits of CFST columns over traditional concrete columns include the elimination of the need for reinforcement and formwork, faster construction times, cost savings, reduced column dimensions, and improvements in load capacity, ductility, and energy absorption capabilities. This research investigates the impact of T-type steel stiffeners on the behavior of square CFST columns through numerical modeling. Utilizing the ABAQUS software, the study analyzed ten specimens to understand this effect comprehensively. A total of fifty CFST specimens reinforced with T stiffeners were modeled to assess varying parameters, such as wall thickness, stiffener depth, and steel grade, under axial loads and bending moments. For each specimen, a P-M (axial force-bending moment) diagram was generated. The outcomes of this analysis culminate in the proposal of an axial force-bending moment interaction diagram specifically for CFST columns reinforced with T stiffeners, providing valuable insights for the design and application of these columns in structural engineering.

“…Concrete‐encased CFST exhibits higher confinement of the concrete core, high stiffness and strength, better durability and ductility, small sectional size, higher fire resistance due to the protection of the outer RC encasement compared to CFST, avoidance of local buckling and corrosion of steel tube, and easier connection with steel RC beams 23,24 .

Concrete‐encased concrete‐filled steel tubes (CFST) has extensive applications in the world. According to previous researches, if the CFST is placed in the compression zone, the confinement increases, and the compressive capacity of the concrete is completely used. The prestressed strands also increase the core concrete confinement and eliminate tension cracks. Therefore, in this paper, to achieve the benefits of CFST and prestressed strand, for the first time, a novel concept called prestressed concrete‐encased CFST (PCE‐CFST) beams were introduced. The main objective of the combination of steel tube and pre‐stressed strands is to increase the core concrete compressive strength and control the concrete crack in the tension zone. Six beams were constructed using self‐compacting concrete to investigate the influence of variations in the pre‐stressing force level of the pre‐stressed strands, the pre‐stressed strands eccentricity, and the steel tubes diameter‐to‐thickness ratio on the structural performance of these members. The specimens were tested under four‐point loading. The results showed that the pre‐stressed strands increased the confinement effect on the core concrete and improved the bearing capacity, ductility, and bending stiffness. The steel tubes improved the bearing capacity, ductility, and energy absorption, while they did not significantly affect the bending stiffness. Finally, it was shown that the pre‐stressed strands increased the bearing capacity, energy absorption, and bending stiffness in reinforced concrete beams.
