Flexural Performance and Moment Connections of Concrete-Filled GFRP Tubes (CFFTs) and CFFT-encased Steel I-Sections

The first part of this thesis addresses a new hybrid system, concrete-filled FRP tube (CFFT)-encased steel I-sections. The embedded steel section enhances flexural strength, stiffness and ductility, and facilitates connection of the CFFT member to footings or other members. Phase I addresses the fle...
