An approach to the ultimate load analysis of the concrete-filled steel tube T shaped columns is presented.Based on the calculation mode of stress-strain relation growing according to exponential rule for the composite materials,calculation formula of elastic-plastic bearing capacity is deduced,and the influence of sectional dimension is analyzed by the formula.Finally,a numerical example confirms the correctness and validity of the proposed computation formula.
