Abstract: This research paper focuses on experimental investigation on composite column subjected to cyclic loading was used for proper experimental work & analytical analysis of CFST columns were carried out. CFST column structure has high ductility , high load bearing capacity hence it has been widely used in civil engineering field. In this work experiment were carried for cfst column with infill of light weight concrete were used.. Experimental on circularly cyclic loaded composite steel tubes were also carried out for different length , width of varying thickness. Ultimate load values obtained were compared with analytical results. The experiment was a carried for different L/D ratio for different grade of concrete that is M20,M30 & M40

Keywords: Light Weight Concrete, Abaqus, CFST Column, Uniaxial Compression, L/D ratio
