ALTERNATE LOAD TEST OF CONCRETE ENCASED STEEL COLUMN UNDER AXIAL COMPRESSIVE FORCE AND BENDING

Many alternate load tests with the test pieces simulating the actual structures have been performed mainly in the architectural research field in order to examine the safety under the earthquake of concrete encased steel columns. As applications to the civil engineering works increased, the experimental research with test pieces modeling the actual structures has come to be carried out. The research focusing on the ductility is still scarce. The loading condition and material parameters of concrete encased steel columns adopted in railway structures are different from those of building construction. An alternate load test under the constant axial compressive force and bending moment was performed by using the test pieces taking into consideration the parameters of railway structures. This paper describes the bearing capacity and ductility of concrete encased steel columns.
