- This paper demonstrates the rotation capacity of a novel and easy-to-construct type of connection between an I-beam and concrete-filled elliptical tubular column. It is the first experimental study of its kind on this type of composite joint. Although elliptical hollow sections are becoming increasingly popular, particularly for their aesthetic appeal, their usage to date has been partially hindered by limited/cumbersome methods of connecting the curved profile to other components. Different arrangements were examined to assess the influence of concrete infill and stiffeners in further enhancing the performance of the joint.
