- Static compression tests were performed on CFDST sections with corner steel tubes.
- It is shown that UHS corner tubes mitigates the non-ductile behaviour of CFDSTs.
- Finite element models were developed and validated utilizing experimental results.
- Analytical formulation was developed to predict the compressive behaviour of CFDSTs.
Concrete-filled tubular (CFT) sections, and the most recent configuration of these sections, concrete-filled double-skin tubular (CFDST) sections, can provide high strength in structural construction. In this study, an innovative fabrication strategy is proposed to prohibit the non-ductile yielding of CFDST sections by applying ultra-high strength steel corner steel tubes. Hence, the static compressive behaviour of CFDST columns containing ultra-high strength steel tubes is experimentally investigated. The results are then compared with those for the same experiment conducted on a CFDST specimen with corner mild steel tubes. In addition, a numerical investigation is conducted to examine the effect of different parameters on promoting the ductility and compressive strength. In order to pave the way for utilizing CFDSTs with corner tubes in engineering practice, a simple analytical formulation is also proposed to predict the load-displacement relationship of these sections based on the experimental and numerical results.
