Abstract

In recent years, a large number of studies have been carried out to investigate the behaviours of concrete filled double skin steel tube (CFDST) members due to its increasing popularity in the construction industry. This project aims to study on ultra-high performance concrete filled double-skin tubes subjected to blast loading with cross section being square for both inner and outer steel tubes using ANSYS software. It is evident that the proposed CFDST column was able to withstand a large blast load without failure so that it has the potential to be used in high-value buildings as well as critical infrastructures. The steel tubes and concrete work together well and integrity of steel concrete interface is maintained. Steel tubes in inner and outer can acts as permanent formwork and primary reinforcement. ANSYS results shows that the CFDA column can withstand applied blast load.
