Solutions for Column

Fire behavior of composite columns made with hollow steel profiles filled with reinforced concrete

Iuav University of Venice – Italy

The purpose of the research is to compare the results obtained by three different and easy-to use methods for the determination of the fire behavior of composite columns made with hollow steel profiles filled with reinforced concrete.

Completely concrete encased steel I- section columns made of self-compacting concrete (SCC)

Iuav University of Venice – Italy

Steel profiles fully encased in concrete are a very common example of composite construction in infrastructures, building located in seismic-prone areas and several underwater structures, especially in China.

Office building in California

John Hopkins University – United States

Concrete core and a frame with 3 levels of buckle-resistance bracing for seismic design were adopted to provide safety against earthquake in a seismically active zone, as well as fire and other structural hazards.

Office building in Texas

John Hopkins University – United States

A unique system of beams linked to a core shear wall, and exterior bundled columns were adopted to support the height of the building (it was the tallest composite building in the world when it was completed in 1980) and address various structural challenges, such as the natural tendency of the tube perimeter frame to warp.

Complex building in Ontario

John Hopkins University – United States

Heavy structural steel and composite diagonal framing and composite perimeter mega-columns were adopted to enable the large open spaces that characterize the interiors of the building.

Commercial building in Mumbai

BESTECH CONSULTANT ENGINEER – India

Composite columns and beams as well as special foundation details at column base were adopted to reduce construction time and to increase the strength, serviceability and life expectancy.

Mixed-used building in Dongguan

Tongji University – China

Column adopted steel tube -reinforced concrete column and some of the walls are made of steel plate concrete walls or section steel concrete walls.

Office building in Shenzhen (China Merchants Taiziwan Building)

Tongji University – China

The tower adopts a frame-core tube structure system.

Office building in Beijing (CCTV Building)

Tongji University – China

The CCTV new building is the headquarters building of China’s official media planned to be built after the 9.
