Abstract
This paper briefly introduces the design codes on concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) structures in China. Some of the recent research work on CFST structures is summarized, the topics covered include: 1) CFST members subjected to monotonic loading; 2) CFST members subjected to cyclic loading; 3) Fire resistance and residual strength for CFST columns after exposure to fire; 4) Effects of long-term load and pre-stress in steel tubes on the CFST columns; 5) Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) filled steel tubular (SCCFST) columns; and 6) Connections between the CFST columns and beams. Finally, some typical practical projects utilizing CFSTs in China are introduced.
