Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns are used widely as building structure components because of their good performance. It can be complex, however, to connect beams into CFST columns, especially when rigid beam-to-column connections are required. In order to simplify the fabrication requirements and cost of these connections, a continuous beam type connection through the column is proposed. This can develop the full plastic moment capacity of the beam. In this paper, the experiment testing results of two types of CFST beam-to-column connection specimens are presented and the connection performance and load transfer mechanisms are examined. The continuous beam type connection performance is compared to that of traditionally used through-diaphragm type of connection, which is more complex and demanding to fabricate. Both specimens showed good seismic performance, exhibiting stable hysteretic behavior with high energy absorption. The maximum experimental strength exceeded the calculated value. For a continuous beam type specimen, there is the potential for the column flange to be affected by the local deformation from the steel beam under bending induced beam tension. However, such effects were not observed in practice until late in the test after extensive beam plastic action had occurred.
