The present study focus on the comparative study of light gauge double skinned steel beam-column specimenin-filled concrete between the skins(with outer square and inner circular sections), with that of light gauge beam-columnspecimens fully filled with concrete. The specimens were subjected to constant axial loads and varying lateral loads. Flyash concrete with 40 % fly ash was used in the investigation and Lateral load capacity; Ductility and Weight ofspecimens were compared. A magnitude of 190kN was used to apply constant axial compressive load with a maximumlateral capacity of 200kN. The vertical load was chosen to design compression rate 40 % of axial resistance found in theanalysis. The results obtained after the specimens tested at 28 days of curing such that strength capacity(lateral loadcapacity), ductility of the double sk inned steel beam-column in-filled concrete specimens increased by 4.45 % and 13.6% respectively with reduced weight compared to control specimens(sections fully filled with fly ash concrete). Hencewith a reduced specimen weight due to less amount of concrete required, higher lateral load capacity and higherductility for concrete in-filled double skinned beam-columns, they are more adaptable for structures in seismic regions
