Axial behaviour of prestressed high strength steel tubular members
Axial behaviour of prestressed high strength steel tubular members
The axial behaviour of high strength steel tubular elements with internal prestressing cables, representing the chord members in prestressed trusses, is investigated herein. Experiments on tensile and compressive members were carried out, with the key variables examined being the steel grade (S460 and S690), the initial prestress level and the presence of grout. FE models were developed to replicate the experiments and generate parametric results. The presence of cables was shown to enhance the tensile load-carrying capacity of the members while the application of prestress extended the elastic range. In compression, prestressing was detrimental, and a modified Perry-Robertson design approach was examined.

Abstract
The axial behaviour of high strength steel tubular elements with internal prestressing cables, representing the chord members in prestressed trusses, is investigated herein. Experiments on tensile and compressive members were carried out, with the key variables examined being the steel grade (S460 and S690), the initial prestress level and the presence of grout. FE models were developed to replicate the experiments and generate parametric results. The presence of cables was shown to enhance the tensile load-carrying capacity of the members while the application of prestress extended the elastic range. In compression, prestressing was detrimental, and a modified Perry-Robertson design approach was examined.
