Description

Technical Field

[0002] Concrete-filled steel tube arch structures are arch ribs composed of concrete-filled steel tubes. They offer high load-bearing capacity, excellent plasticity and toughness, strong fire and impact resistance, easy construction, and excellent cost-effectiveness. Concrete-filled steel tube arch structures are widely used in the support systems of coal mine tunnels. The restraining effect of the steel tube shell places the concrete under triaxial compression, giving the internal concrete greater compressive strength and deformation resistance, thereby significantly improving the structure's load-bearing capacity.

[0003] When applied, it is necessary to conduct a uniformly distributed load test on the arched member to test its performance indicators. The current experimental devices for applying uniformly distributed loads to arched members have the following shortcomings: they are generally large in size, inconvenient to move, the test results of surrounding rock pressure are relatively simple, and the test process of arched members is time-consuming.
