Abstract

As a new low-carbon material, development of preplaced aggregate concrete (PAC) will achieve huge economic and social benefits. However, few existing research is focused on applying PAC in structural elements. This paper is attempt to apply PAC in concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) stub columns and the bearing behaviors of PAC-filled steel tube (PACFST) stub columns under axial compression are also experimentally investigated. The results indicate that the failure modes of PACFST stub columns are all drum-like failure mode which are analogous to that of CFST stub columns. The axial load-axial strain curves of PACFST stub columns can be roughly divided into elastic stage, elastic-plastic stage and plastic stage. Under the similar ultimate load, the ultimate strains are a bit smaller than that of CFST stub columns. Comparison of the results of ultimate load of PACFST stub columns calculated using the existing relevant standards for the bearing capacity calculation methods of CFST stub columns, GB 50936 and JGJ 138 are much more suitable to assess the bearing capacity of PACFST stub columns. Approximately 15%~20% saving in cement consumption will be accomplished with popularization and utilization of PACFST stub columns as compared with CFST stub columns.
