The invention discloses a novel square steel tube column-H-shaped steel beam splicing outer sleeve type connecting method. A square steel tube column, a U-shaped splicing outer covering plate, high-strength bolts, high-strength core penetrating bolts, splicing cover plates, cantilever H-shaped steel short beams, H-shaped steel beams, plug welding holes, outwards-turning lug plates and core penetrating bolt holes are mainly related. The structure is simple, the construction is convenient, the good anti-seismic property is achieved, the procedures at the site construction stage are simplified and are carried out easily, the construction production efficiency is effectively improved, the construction time is shortened, and the construction cost is saved.
