Flexural behavior of a novel high-strength RCFST column-to-column connection (2020)
Journal Article
Mou, B., Li, Y., Wang, F., Pan, W., & Zhao, Y. (2021). Flexural behavior of a novel high-strength RCFST column-to-column connection. Thin-Walled Structures, 159, Article 107274. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tws.2020.107274

Brittle fracture is one of the principal disincentives to limit the use of ultrahigh-strength steels in tall buildings. This paper proposes a novel column-to-column connection without full penetration welding in reinforced concrete-filled steel tubul...
