摘要: Abstract Concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs) have become the most recommended composite structural members in many modern structures. These may need upgrading or strengthening like any conventional for reasons. In this research, Finite element (FE) models are prepared to investigate behavior of square CFST beams, partially strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. The proposed FE verified existing experimental test results. Several parameters studied including various CFRP wrapping lengths/layers, tube yielding strengths, depth-to-thickness ( D / t ), and length-to-depth L ) ratios. application strengthen found less improvement elastic range compared significant plastic range. is be not very effective if applied along 50% length those 75% more their because delamination failure. Load ratios achieved close values when 100% sheets up three layers. Better load were observed higher lower yield strength adopting same scenario.
