To realize axial load behavior of CFDST, ANSYS is used to analyze the process from load to destruction that hollow section ratio is the main variable parameter. To explore the validity of finite element analysis software, axial compressive strength is calculated combined with formulas of existing criterions. The results show the finite element results have a good agreement with text values and calculation.

In this paper, the behavior of concrete-filled double skin steel tubes (CFDST) with simply supported boundary condition was analyzed by Finite Element Analysis method. The Finite Element analysis mode was established and the results have a good consistent with experimental results. The work mechanic and full range analysis of concrete filled double steel tube under lateral impact were analyzed, the results show that the damage of CFDST with simply supported boundary condition under lateral impact is in ductile manner.

As China’s infrastructure grows rapidly, the use of concrete-filled steel tubular structures for engineering applications is attracting increasing interest owing to their high section modulus, high strength and good seismic performance. However, for concrete-filled steel tubular members with large width-to-thickness ratio, steel tubes are prone to outward buckling when they are subjected to axial compression. Welding of longitudinal stiffeners on the steel tubes is one of the most efficient approaches for delaying local buckling and thus improving the mechanical performance of such type of concrete-filled steel tubular members. This study attempts to investigate the axial compression behaviour of concrete-filled stiffened steel tubular members with square sections through experimental study and finite element analysis. First, 14 concrete-filled steel tubular stub columns, with different width-to-thickness ratios of steel tube and depth-to-thickness ratios of stiffener, were subjected to axial compression loads and tested. It was found that the use of stiffeners increases the ultimate strength and improves the stability of the stub columns. Later, an investigation on the behaviour of the stiffened concrete-filled steel tubular stub columns was carried out through a three-dimensional finite element analysis. The accuracy of the finite element analysis model was verified by the test results. A parametric study was conducted to further evaluate the stiffening schemes that influence the axial compression strength. Finally, the research findings were synthesized into a new simplified model to predict the load-carrying capacity of stiffened concrete-filled steel tubular stub columns that allows for large width-to-thickness ratios.
