What are the advantages of concrete-filled circular steel tube compared to fully encased steel section?
Lateral expansion that occurs in concrete under axial compression will cause circumferential tension in the steel tube and triaxial compression in the concrete. This reduces the crushing strength of the concrete.
True
False
The confinement effect is not significant in concrete-filled rectangular tubes because less circumferential tension can be developed in the steel tube.
