V. CONCLUSION
Comparison on the bearing capacity between the expanded
honeycomb steel column and the original solid web steel Through the analysis of the bearing chart and the bearing
column. The main comparison is on how does the stability curve of the expanded honeycomb steel column and the
bearing capacity change in the direction of the original solid original solid web steel column stability, as the stiffness of the
