Self-compacting concrete has the advantages of high fluidity, high uniform density, and low porosity. To promote the engineering application of self-compacting concrete, this article studies the axial compression test of ten square steel tube self-compacting concrete columns. The effects of design parameters such as different grades of concrete strength and internal structures of circular steel tubes, square steel tubes, and H-shaped steel on the mechanical properties of self-compacting fly ash concrete filled square steel tube columns are studied. The failure mode, characteristic load and characteristic displacement, ductility, and energy dissipation capacity of each specimen are analyzed. On the basis of the test, the finite element analysis model of steel tube self-compacting concrete column is established, and the test results and simulation results are compared and analyzed. The results show that: the failure mode of the square steel tube specimen is the multilayer middle and upper ring buckling failure. Internal structural measures of square steel tube and H-shaped steel can improve the bearing capacity, ductility, and energy dissipation capacity of the specimen. It is not recommended to use the specimen with an outer square and an inner circle design. The results of the finite element simulation have a high degree of matching with the test results, which intuitively reflects the changes in force of each component.
