    Abstract :

    This paper presents design of steel - concrete in-filled composite columns with and without shear connectors. A Column length of 1.04 m has been proposed with steel thickness of 1.5 mm. The column has been fabricated with the infilling of M 20 grade of concrete. The red oxide paint has been applied on the column to prevent from rusting. The axial compression load carrying capacity of steel-concrete in filled composite columns with and without connectors has been found out by using the loading frame machine of capacity of 200 tonnes the ultimate strength of the in-filled composite column with and without shear connectors has been noted. The failure modes of both the in-filled columns have been observed. It is evident that the load carrying capacity of column with shear connectors is high compared to column without shear connectors.
