description In order to study the flexural performance of the combined structure of steel-pipe and steel slag powder ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC), nine round steel-pipe beams filled with steel slag powder UHPC of different types were fabricated according to the orthogonal test method with the steel pipe type, coarse aggregate content, steel fiber admixture, and curing system as parameters. The broken ring morphology, deformation characteristics, deflection distribution, and flexural bearing capacity of the steel-pipe–UHPC beams were analyzed via a pure bending test and a finite element simulation. The results show that the damage morphology of the round steel-tube–UHPC beams prepared by using steel slag powder UHPC as the inner filling material was “bow damage” under the pure bending load, and the load capacity was higher. When the cross-sectional deflection reached L/30, the external load was still not reduced, and the steel-tube–steel-slag powder-UHPC beam had a better plastic deformation capacity and a later flexural bearing capacity. The type of steel tube had a significant influence on the flexural bearing capacity of the steel-tube–UHPC beam, and the larger the diameter of the steel tube section and the thicker the tube wall, the higher its flexural bearing capacity. The calculated ultimate flexural bearing capacity by the finite element software and the test results had a stable error between 5.6% and 11.2%, which indicates that the model was reasonably established. The research results can provide a reference for the application of steel pipe UHPC engineering.
