Owing to the advantages like intense compressive strength, large ductility and enormous energy incorporation, Concrete filled steel tube column system is gaining momentum when set side by side to regular steel or reinforced concrete system. Local buckling is one such major advantage that CFST gives experimental results from various articles has proven that there is an increase in the properties of CFST over normal concrete systems. This paper aims to give brief understanding on the experiments works conducted and numerical results obtained from various articles are discussed. Experimental works exposed to view that circular concrete filled steel tubes were more appropriate than square concrete filled steel tubes. In this paper, nonlinear finite element analysis for concrete filled steel tube is effectuated through varied parameters like concrete infill grade, as short columns with diameter ratio (L/D) not exceeding 4.5 with devoid of slenderness have also been discussed. The past studies divulged that the increment of D/T ratio dwindles the load carrying capacity of CFST and moreover, the high concrete infill grade buttress the load carrying capacity. From various literature reviews it was also concluded that the confinement efficacy of concrete enlarges the resistance to axial loading of compound columns with concrete filled circular sections. Furthermorefor the CFST columns the buckling failure can be evaded, as well as the load carrying capacity can be strengthened by hauling down the slenderness ratio. Therefore ample scope exists in carrying of numerical analysis using ANSYS to find the potential of CFST columns.
