Experimental and numerical studies of S960 ultra-high strength steel welded I-section columns by Su, Andi, Liang, Yating, Zhao, Ou

“…The assessment results indicated that the design buckling curves in both the European code and Australian standard yield rather conservative resistance predictions when used for S960 ultra-high strength steel welded I-section columns failing by minor-axis flexural buckling, while the design buckling curve in American specification results in overall accurate and consistent flexural buckling resistance predictions, though the predicted resistances are marginally conservative for those relatively short S960 ultra-high strength steel welded I-section columns with member non-dimensional slendernesses from 0.6 to 1.0. …”

Behaviour and design of hot-rolled stainless steel channel section members by Li, Shuai

“…The obtained experimental and numerical data were then employed to assess the accuracy of the existing design rules for hot-rolled stainless steel channel section members, as given in the European code and American specification. The assessment results revealed that the current design codes result in conservative cross-section resistance predictions, but scattered member resistance predictions with both conservative and unsafe results, mainly owing to the lack of proper consideration of the pronounced material strain hardening and nonlinear material property of stainless steel in the design. …”
