Joints in frame structures often fail before beams and columns in an earthquake and are a key part of reinforcement. In this study, to enhance the seismic performance of concrete frame structures, a steel-jacketed grouting composite reinforcement method is proposed by combining reinforcement technology, steel cladding technology, and eco-efficient materials from grouting technology. This method effectively utilizes the advantages of various materials, avoids major demolition and construction, and reduces waste and resource consumption. In order to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the reinforcement method, one of the original joint specimens with a scale of 1:3 and one of the reinforced joint specimens were designed and tested. The experiments involved reversed cyclic testing of beam–column to measure its seismic behavior. The seismic performance indexes such as failure characteristics, hysteretic properties, and the energy dissipation capacity of the specimens were analyzed, and the corresponding finite element model was established. The influence of key parameters such as reinforcement range, steel plate thickness, and grout strength on its seismic performance was explored. The research shows that the method can effectively improve the seismic performance of the joints, and seismic performance indexes such as bearing capacity, ductility, and energy consumption of the specimens are significantly improved. The test results of the established finite element model are in good agreement. The variable parameter analysis of the finite element shows that the thickness of the steel plate has little influence on its bearing capacity. With the increase in the reinforcement range of the clad steel and the strength of the grouting material, the bearing capacity of the specimen increases. The research results can provide a reference for the reinforcement of frame structure joints.

In this study, seven Engineering Geopolymer Composite (EGC) groups with varying proportions were prepared. Rheological, compressive, flexural, and axial tensile tests of the EGC were conducted to study the effects of the water/binder ratio, the cement/sand ratio, and fiber type on its properties. Additionally, a uniaxial tension constitutive model was established. The results indicate that the EGC exhibits early strength characteristics, with the 7-day compressive strength reaching 80% to 92% of the 28-day compressive strength. The EGC demonstrates high compressive strength and tensile ductility, achieving up to 70 MPa and 4%, respectively. The mechanical properties of the EGC improved with an increase in the sand/binder ratio and decreased with an increase in the water/binder ratio. The stress–strain curve of the EGC resembles that of the ECC, displaying a strain-hardening state that can be divided into two stages: before cracking, the matrix primarily bears the stress; after cracking, the slope decreases, and the fiber predominantly bears the stress.

To clarify the effect of sand ratio on the freeze–thaw performance of full solid waste geopolymer concrete (FSWGC) and establish a constitutive model for its post-freeze–thaw mechanical behavior, FSWGC was prepared via alkali activation—using fly ash, slag, silica fume as cementitious materials, and cold-bonded geopolymer lightweight aggregates (CBGLAs) and recycled sand as aggregates. With sand ratios (0.45, 0.55, 0.65) as the core variable, rapid freeze–thaw tests were conducted to measure mass loss, relative dynamic elastic modulus, mechanical properties, and axial compressive stress–strain characteristics of FSWGC. Results show that higher sand ratios significantly aggravate freeze–thaw damage: after 100 cycles, the 0.65 sand ratio specimen has a mass loss rate of 4.61% and a relative dynamic elastic modulus retaining only 34.4% of its initial value, with accelerated strength degradation. This is due to yjr weakened wrapping of recycled sand by cementitious materials, forming a weak interfacial transition zone. The modified Guo constitutive model for FSWGC, and the further established model considering freeze–thaw cycles, accurately describe the stress–strain curve of FSWGC before and after freeze–thaw. This study provides theoretical and experimental support for FSWGC mix optimization, durability design, and mechanical response calculation in cold regions.
