Abstract

The study for seismic characteristics of square concrete-filled steel tubular (CFT) columns is analytically conducted. For predicting the strength and ductility of CFT columns, fiber analysis technique is used. The analytical results show reasonable agreement with experiment results. The influence of the steel tube on the lateral response of CFT columns is studied for the evaluation of seismic performance.
