要旨 |
This paper presents the results from a feasibility study on the structural behavior of an engineering wood encased concrete-steel (EWECS) composite column and a concrete encased steel (CES) composite column without cover concrete. The two columns were tested under constant axial load and lateral load reversals. The main key parameter was the presence of woody shell. From test results, the EWECS column indicated to have a stable spindle-shape hysteresis characteristic, shear force-story drift angle relationship, and enhanced flexural capacity due to the existence of woody shell.
