EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON EVALUATION OF FILLING FOR CFT INFILLED CONCRETE(Materials and Construction)

Abstract

The pressed bleeding test was considered as a method of evaluating filling situation inside concrete filled steel tube. The pressed bleeding test was performed for the concrete which was confirmed filling situation inside CFT mock-up models 10m in height, and the coefficient of water permeability of fresh concrete was evaluated by applying the theory of consolidation. Consequently, The coefficient of water permeability of the concrete which was inferior in filling situation, was evaluated most greatly. The pressed bleeding test could evaluate filling situation inside CFT in advance.
