Abstract

Concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns are widely used in civil engineering structures due to its abundant structural benefits like excellent seismic behaviour, ultimate load bearing capacity, fire resistivity, excellent ductility and energy absorption capacity, particularly in zones of high seismic risk. Due to their excellent engineering properties, CFST columns are used in buildings, bridges, electric transmission line and offshore structures. The ultimate load carrying capacity of CFST columns depends upon various parameters such as D/t ratio, steel grade, concrete grade, etc. Abaqus software is used for the finite element modelling of CFST Columns. In this study the ultimate axial load carrying capacity of CFST column is investigated by changing diameter-to-thickness (D/t) ratio, steel grade and concrete grade. Results shows that the ultimate load capacity decreases by increase in D/t ratio but increases by increase in steel grade and concrete grade.
