the aim of this research work is to compare the strength of hot rolled A36 steel tubes being widely use indesigning and constructing of modern world space frames. In this study the model will be design by using STAAD Prostructure designing software. After design that model same tubes will be wrapped using suitable FRP, then erect bothmodels with and without FRP rapping tubes. The objective of this research is to compare the tensile and compressivestrength of tubes. The scope of this paper is kept limited to the analysis of these tubes in a finite element softwareANSYS. It was found that the results of FEA were in close match to experimental results.
