title = "Development and structural characterization of CFRP/concrete composite columns",
abstract = "This paper summarizes recent research developments on a structural concept that combines filament wound Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) shells/tubes filled on-site with concrete for composite columns. The CFRP shell provides the functions of formwork and external reinforcement, while the concrete core supplies the main compression force mechanism and allows for the anchorage of connection elements. A ductile design concept has resulted in a very ductile overall system, while a strength connection design concepts with essentially elastic response have also been characterized. Analytical and design models were developed together with parallel research efforts on the use of concrete filled CFRP shells for bridge girders. The structural behavior of the two column design concepts was experimentally validated through large-scale lateral load tests.",
