Abstract:
Aluminum alloy has significant potential in green building structures due to its high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, recyclability and low life-cycle cost. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the basic mechanical properties and current research progress of aluminum alloy tube(concrete)members and develop precise design methods, the physical and chemical properties, corrosion resistance and recyclability of aluminum alloy materials, as well as their typical engineering applications in modern structures(such as large-span spatial structures, bridges, low-rise frames, et al)were first summarized. Secondly, the research work on aluminum alloy tube(concrete)members was reviewed from the aspects of experimental studies and numerical simulations, including the bond, axial compression, eccentric compression, flexural, and hysteretic performance under cyclic loading of such members, as well as the failure modes of the members. In addition, the calculation formulas for the axial compressive bearing capacity of concrete filled aluminum alloy tube(CFAT)numbers in the existing studies were summarized, and the future research trends in this field were prospected. The results show that the current scholars mainly conduct many experimental studies and numerical simulations on the axial compression performance of circular concrete filled aluminum alloy tube and aluminum alloy composite tube concrete columns. However, there are relatively few studies on the mechanical properties of square cross-section members, and there is no design specification for concrete-filled aluminum alloy tube structures.
