In this study, experimental tests of the behaviour of steel and partially encased composite
(PEC) columns subjected to compressive loading is performed. Evaluation of this type of …

This paper includes experimental and numerical study of the octagonal partially encased
composite (PEC) columns specimens under axial and torsion loading. The major difference …

This paper presents the results of experimental and numerical model analyses on partially
encased composite columns under concentric loads. The main objective of this study is to …

In current international practice, composite construction is gaining importance in industrial
buildings and in particular in high-rise buildings. Partially encased composite (PEC) …

This paper presents numerical simulations of partially encased composite columns (PEC)
with equivalent steel sections. The composite section of PEC column consists of thin walled …

In this paper, the behaviour of axially loaded partially encased composite columns made
with light welded H steel shapes is examined using ABAQUS finite element modelling. The …

The test results of nine stub-column tests performed on partially encased composite (PEC)
columns made with welded H-section steel are described and presented. The H-section …

This paper describes the research program that has been performed to develop and validate
design equations for the axial capacity of partially encased composite columns made with …

Partially encased composite (PEC) columns are one of the recent developments in
composite column. PEC column is composed of a thin-walled welded steel H-shaped …

In an experimental and analytical study on the structural behavior of slender circular
steelconcrete composite columns, eleven specimens were tested to investigate the effects of …
