Abstract

This paper proposes a review of the previous research work and the representative publications regarding the seismic behavior of the concrete-encased steel (CES) columns. Concrete-encased steel sections are composed of steel sections encased in reinforced concrete members. The research work recently showed increased attention to this type of column due to its advantages compared to conventional reinforced concrete columns. Firstly, the analytical studies of the behavior of the CES columns under axial loads, including comparative studies between different research works, are presented. Then, the behavior of the CES columns under combined axial and flexural loads is also highlighted. An overview of the analytical confinement material models is addressed. In addition, the discussion and summary of the seismic behavior of the CES columns and the important parameters affecting the seismic behavior of these types of columns are included. Although important progress has been made by the previous studies in the CES columns under the axial load and the combination of axial and seismic loads, they fundamentally focused on the building columns, and little attention was paid to the impact of lateral reinforcement and their configuration in bridge piers. Due to the lack of studies on the parameters affecting the seismic behavior of the bridges, more studies should still be made to better understand the behavior of the CES bridge piers. This paper provides a reference for the research and engineering practice of concrete-encased steel bridge piers. It also concludes with suggestions for future studies to integrate the seismic requirement of the CES bridge piers in Canada.
