Abstract

This paper aims to develop a suitable constitutive model addressing the behavior of short concrete Filled Steel Tubular (CFST) column on the compressive response under axial loads. The nonlinear finite element program is carried out to study the force transfer between steel tube and concrete core. Parametric study is conducted using nine circular CFST columns to investigate the load carrying capacities and confinement of CFST columns. The parameters such as yield stress of steel, diameter of the column and thickness of the steel tube are studied. 120-137% of load carrying increment is observed for concrete filled steel tubes by addition of concrete in the hollow steel tube. 95% of load increment by varying the diameter of the column and keeping other parameters constant. 8-16% of load increment is recorded by changing the steel yield strength and keeping remaining parameters as constant. 5.27% increase of load carrying capacity is observed by changing L/D from 3 to 5 and a decrease in the load carrying capacity is observed with an increase of L/D ratios from 5 to 7.
