Abstract: Concrete filled steel tubular members comprise of a steel hollow section of circular or rectangular shape
filled with plain or reinforced concrete. They are used in multi-storey buildings as columns and beam-columns,
and as beams in low-rise industrial buildings where a robust and efficient structural system is required. The
objective is to analyze CFST column by finite element method software (ANSYS) results obtained by using ANSYS
software for evaluate the Compression effect of concrete filled steel tubular columns, observe the behavior of the
confined concrete columns subjected to axial loading, understand the behavior of double steel tube in confined
columns, compare the compression effect with conventional single skinned solid CFST with double skinned hollow
CFST, & Evaluating the stress – strain & deflection for confined and unconfined specimens.
Keywords: Concrete filled steel tubes, Hollow steel tube, Single skinned steel tube, Double skinned steel tube.
I. INTRODUCTION
The benefits of both steel and concrete are used by the leaders of concrete lined steel tubular (CFST). We consist of a stee
l hollow portion filled with plain or reinforced concrete in a circular or rectangular form.They are widely used as column
s and beam columns in high-rise and multistory buildings and as beams in low-rise industrial buildings requiring a robust
and efficient structural system. In terms of both structural efficiency and design series, there are a variety of distinct
advantages associated with such structural structures. The concrete base contributes more to axial compression resistance.
Since 1970, extensive research has confirmed that framing systems consisting of concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns
have more advantages than ordinary reinforced concrete and steel systems, and as a result, this system has been used very
frequently in the construction of mid- and high-rise buildings in Japan. In recent days, it is necessary to build the high-
story buildings due to the growth of cities. Composite buildings for multi-story building are promising. As a result,
composite columns have recently experienced increased worldwide use, driven by the development of high-strength
concrete allowing such columns to be substantially saved. Columns are designed to resist the majority of axial force by
concrete alone can be further economized by the use of thin walled steel tube.

II. RELATEDWORK
In recent days, it is necessary to build the high-story buildings due to the growth of cities. In 1961, Naka, Kato, et al.,
wrote the first technical paper on CFT in Japan. It discussed a circular CFT compression member used in a power
transmission tower. In 1985, five general contractors and a steel manufacturer won the Japan’s Ministry of Construction
proposal competition for the construction of urban apartment houses in the 21st century. Since then, these industries and
the Building Research Institute (BRI) of the Ministry of Construction As a result, composite columns have recently
experienced increased worldwide use, driven by the development of high-strength concrete allowing such columns to be
substantially saved.

After this they have started a five-year experimental research project called New Urban Housing Project (NUHP),
Research findings obtained from this project formed present design recommendations for the CFT column system.
A comparative study of concrete filled steel tube columns under axial pressure was performed by Pandu Ranga
Kirankumar.T, 2016. The analysis addresses the composite column's actions and various codal requirements.
Experimental research performed through a comparative study of experimental results and empirical results for hollow
steel tubes (HST) and concrete filled steel tubes (CFST) under axial power. Shankar Jagadesh, 2014 conducted a study
about the behavior and the characteristics of CFST columns are the prime need of the hour. This paper presents the
innovative experimental investigations conducted on CFST columns and the load deflection response characteristics of
columns are also addressed. A comprehensive summary of various analytical and numerical studies on modeling of CFST
members is portrayed in this paper. The design specifications and standards by AIJ, Eurocode-4, ANSI/AISC and AIK are
addressed.
Lin-Hai Han, Wei Li, Reidar Bjorhovde, 2013 carried out an experimental study to date on the development of the family
of concrete-filled steel tubular structures and draws up a research framework for CFST members. In recent years,
particularly in China, the development of research on CFST structural members is summarized and discussed. The
emerging approaches to development from different countries are investigated.

III. SCOPE
The aim of this study is to use simple methods to make useful improvements in the column power. It will also help to use
Stiffened concrete filled steel tubes in different construction works in practical applications. The present research may be
expanded to include cases of other forms of mounting. More complicated type of CFST specimens with various cross
sections can be tried. Scope for future

IV. MODEL
In this paper, models for ANSYS code are produced and analyzed to evaluate and compare the axial strength and failure
modes of these models with the others. The top and bottom surfaces of the concrete–filled circular steel tube columns are
set against all degrees of freedom except for the displacement at the packed end, which is the top surface, in the direction
of the load applied.

V. RESULTS
The CFST specimens were analyzed using finite element analysis in ANSYS workbench. The results of the finite element
analysis are included in this chapter. After analyzing the specimens, the deformations at each and every load were
obtained from ANSYS. Non-linear analysis was carried out for all the specimens.

VI. CONCLUSION
The finite element analysis of stiffened concrete filled single and double skinned thin walled steel tubular column
specimens were carried out for studying the ultimate load carrying capacity and behavior. For different specimen models
were analyzed for this. A conventional column with circular cross section was first modeled and analyzed for validation.
Then a circular column are modeled by providing outer skin only without providing conventional reinforcement and
analyzed. Then in addition to the outer skin, the specimen was analyzed by providing an inner steel skin. Then the test is
repeated by the column throughout the length and analyzed for all the cases.
When the double skinned circular column is compared with conventional circular one and single skinned solid concrete
filled steel tube, the compressive strength is increased by40 times in SSSCFST and It is increased by almost four times
than single skinned CFST in double skinned CFST. It also increases the load carrying capacity well as compared to
conventional specimens.
The present study can be extended to include cases of other types of loading. More complicated type of CFST specimens
with various cross sections can be tried. Study based on varying the shape of Stiffeners in the CFST.Study based on
altering the confinement. The work can be extended to study the behavior of cyclically loaded CFST beams.
