With rapid economic and social development, both concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) composite structures and basalt fiber (BF) have been widely applied in the field of civil engineering. To investigate the laws and characteristics of the influence of chopped BF on the mechanical properties of CFST columns and further promote the application of BF in CFST structures, the axial compressive bearing capacity test of 18 CFST short columns was carried out, and the influence of BF of different lengths on their structural mechanical properties was analyzed. The test results were compared with the theoretical calculation results and the finite element analysis results to verify the reasonableness of the test results. The results reveal that the axial compressive bearing capacity of the CFST short column after adding BF is significantly improved compared to the ordinary CFST short column, in which the bearing capacity and the ductility coefficient are increased by approximately 8.1% and 31.6%, respectively, on average. In addition, changing the length of BF has less effect on the bearing capacity of CFST short columns, the rate of increase in bearing capacity decreases with an increase in the steel ratio of CFST, and the coefficient of ductility increases with the increase in the steel ratio.

The influence of basalt fiber on the mechanical performance of concrete-filled steel tube short columns under axial compression

Study on the axial compression behavior of RC columns strengthened with cementitious grout

This paper focuses on the development of thin-walled panels with specific properties for applications such as water-tight structures. The authors propose the use of textile-reinforced concrete (TRC) as a composite material and highlight its advantages, which include high tensile strength, improved crack resistance, and design flexibility. The study presents a novel approach which combines TRC with reactive powder concrete (RPC) as a matrix and a lightweight aggregate. RPC, known for its brittle behaviour, is reinforced with glass fibres and a textile fabric to increase its flexural strength. The research includes a comprehensive analysis of the physical and mechanical properties of both the unreinforced RPC matrix and the TRC composite. In particular, the lightweight aggregate RPC matrix has a porosity of 41%, and its mechanical properties, such as flexural and compressive strength, are discussed. The TRC composites, produced in thicknesses ranging from 1 mm to 4 mm, are subjected to flexural tests to evaluate their behaviour under load. The thicker elements show typical damage phases, while the thinner elements show greater flexibility and elasticity. SEM observations confirm good adhesion between the glass fibres and the RPC matrix. Water permeability tests show that the TRC composite, despite its highly porous structure, achieves a water permeability two orders of magnitude higher than that of a reference material, highlighting the roles of both the porous aggregate and the matrix hydration. The paper concludes with a proof of concept—a canoe called the PKanoe, which is constructed from the developed TRC composite. The design of the canoe is supported by numerical analysis to ensure its optimal shape and structural integrity under load. The research contributes to the exploration of innovative materials for sustainable civil engineering applications and addresses both structural and environmental considerations.

Mechanical Properties and Water Permeability of Textile-Reinforced Reactive Powder Concrete with Lightweight Aggregate

The main objective of this investigation was to study the influence of an Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC) on the seismic performances of beam–column–slab subassemblies. Tests and simulations were conducted on several models. The bearing capacity of the ECC model was 15% higher than that of the RC member, the deformability increased by 19%, and the energy dissipation capability increased by 34%. The use of an ECC in the slab could reduce the contribution of the reinforced bars in the slab to the flexural strength of the beam. At a drift of 2%, the range of the yielding bars in the slab of the RC models was 5h to 6h. However, the yield range of reinforcement in the slab of the ECC models was nearly 3h. As a result, the ECC subassemblies were prone to reach a “strong column and weak beam” yield mechanism. 

The Effect of ECC Materials on Seismic Performance of Beam—Column Subassemblies with Slabs

To investigate the axial load response of reinforced concrete (RC) columns confined by carbon textile-reinforced concrete (CTRC) under chloride attack, 24 CTRC-confined square columns and 12 unconfined columns were tested under axial load, while considering the influences of dry-wet cycles, textile ratios, stirrup ratios, and section sizes. The experimental results indicate that the corrosion resistance and compression performance of RC columns under chloride ion erosion were significantly improved by CTRC. The corrosion of the RC column with CTRC confinement was remarkably reduced with a maximum of 63.9% in the chloride salt environment. The maximum increments of bearing capacity and ductility of CTRC-confined columns were 30.9% and 87.7%, respectively, compared with unconfined columns. In addition, bearing capacity, ductility, and deformation energy were also affected by stirrup ratios and section sizes. Finally, the semi-empirical and semi-theoretical analytical models of the stress-strain relationship and axial-bearing capacity were proposed based on the experimental data and theoretical analysis. The compound confinement effects of CTRC and corroded stirrups on core concrete was considered in the proposed models. The models correlated well with the experimental data.
