Abstract

The work aims to study the failure characteristics and deformation modes of corrugated paperboard square tube-constrained columns under quasi-static axial loads and obtain the simplified calculation formula of compressive bearing capacity at different stages. By designing and fabricating comparative samples of double-layer outer transverse and inner vertical corrugated paperboard square column and single-layer columns, and carrying out quasi-static compression tests, the F-S curves and key mechanical parameters of the entire process of component failure were obtained. By analyzing the test data and simplified mechanical models, the calculation formulas for the compressive bearing capacity of double-layer square columns were derived. The entire compression process under axial loads of double-layer outer transverse and inner vertical corrugated paperboard square column was divided into the linear elastic stage, the platform stage, the crushing stage and the strengthening stage. At both ends of the vertical inner tube, a corrugated paperboard laminated compression compaction area was formed, and in the middle, a large concave and convex deformation folding area of the thin-walled tube was formed. The increase of height had a slight effect on the bearing capacity, the stable deformation area was extended, and the total energy absorption capacity increased. The bearing capacity in the platform stage and the crushing stage was simplified to the superposition of the bearing capacity of the outer transverse tube and the inner vertical tube. The main parameters of the calculation formula included the average vertical and transverse compressive stresses of the standard specimens of corrugated paperboard, the average and minimum values of the platform forces of single-layer vertical and horizontal columns and the compression cross-sectional area of the corrugated paperboard column. The double-layer outer transverse and inner vertical corrugated paperboard square column forms a constrained structure. Under the constrained effect of the outer tube in the transverse direction and the guidance of stable compression deformation, the axial crushing process is stable, and it has superior plastic deformation characteristics and high energy absorption capacity.
