AbstractTubular steel structures with slender compression cross-sections are prone to local buckling. In this paper the axial compression is investigation of the innovative fabricated structural steel column consisting of sinusoidal corrugated pattern. When it comes to the design of compressive individuals, buckling is a crucial layout provision. The paper describes the effect of variation in the sectional properties like mean diameter, thickness, amplitude, and frequency of corrugation on the

... uckling axial load. A quadratic model was developed to correlate the independent variables for maximum buckling load by using central composite design (CCD) method. Subsequently ANOVA, a statistical tool is used to analyse and compare the different combinations and finding the most influential factor on buckling load. Response surface methodology is adopted to review the interaction models between the different combinations.
