Fast-growing poplar with characteristics of fast growth, convenient processing, and strong adaptability is widely planted all over the world, but it is difficult to be directly used as structural timber due to its loose fibers and low strength. In order to enhance mechanical properties of fast-growing poplar, a new type of steel plate reinforced glulam fast-growing poplar is developed. Nine columns are tested including one fast-growing poplar column, two glued-laminated timber (glulam) columns and six steel plate reinforced glulam columns. The influencing factors include the steel plate thickness and eccentricity. Based on test results, axial stiffness, failure mode, load-displacement and load-strain relationships were investigated. Test results indicate that ultimate load and axial stiffness of steel plate reinforced glulam columns were respectively increased by 134.5–177.5% and 168.5–244.1% compared to fast-growing poplar column. With the increase of steel plate thickness and decrease of eccentricity, ultimate load increased by 10.9–18.3% and 27.2–92.3%, respectively. It was found that steel plate thickness and eccentricity have great impacts on bearing capacity of steel plate reinforced glulam columns. In addition, bearing capacity equation for steel plate reinforced glulam columns was established and test results coincide quite well with calculated results with difference of less than 5%. |
