Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) tubes filled with concrete are axially loaded until failure of the specimen to investigate their load carrying capacity. Twenty four specimens are cast and tested, out of which twelve are of PVC pipe and twelve of steel tube. PVC tubes are of dia. 152.4 mm, thickness 5mm with effective length of 500 mm and 600 mm. One of the main advantages in the interaction between PVC tube and concrete is, local buckling and PVC tube delayed by restraint of concrete and strength of concrete is increased by the confining effect of PVC tube . In current international practice, concrete filled tube (CFT) columns are used in the primary lateral resistance systems of both braced and unbraced building structures. CFTs are also used as bridge piers. Moreover, CFTs may be utilized for retrofitting purposes for strengthening concrete columns in earthquake zones. The CFT structural member has a number of distinct advantages over an equivalent steel, reinforced concrete, or steel-reinforced concrete member. The orientation of the pvc and concrete in the cross section optimizes the strength and stiffness of the section. The pvc lies at the outer perimeter where it performs most effectively in tension and in resisting bending moment. Also, the stiffness of the CFT is greatly enhanced because the pvc, which has a greater modulus of elasticity than the concrete, is situated farthest from the centroid, where it makes the greatest contribution to the moment of inertia.
