Six　stub　columns　subjected　to　axial　compression　are　carried　out.　An　attempt　is　made　to　know　difference　of　results　by　different　design　codes　including　DL/T5085-1999(1999),　GJB4142-2000(2001),　AIJ　(1997),　EC4(　1994),　LRFD(1999)　and　685400(1979).　The　research　shows　that　self-compaction　concrete　filled　steel　tubes　have　good　bearing　capacity.　All　results　are　somewhat　conserved,　but　the　results　of　codes　DL/15085-1999(1999),　GJB4142-2000(2001),　BS5400(1979)　and　Fujian　local　standard　are　in　good　agreement　with　those　of　the　test.　They　are　suitable　to　be　adopted　to　design　and　calculate　the　bearing　capacity　of　self-compaction　concrete-filled　steel　tube　stub　columns.
