Testing of stainless steel I-section columns in fire

Shear resistance and design of stainless steel plate girders in fire

“…The behaviour of stainless steel columns, beams and beam-columns in fire was also experimentally investigated in the literature. Gardner and Baddoo [14], Uppfelt et al [15], Tondini et al [16], Fan et al [17][18][19], Ding et al [20], Liu et al [21,22] and Xing et al [23] carried out fire experiments on stainless steel columns, while Xing et al [24,25] and Fan et al [26,27] performed physical experiments on stainless steel beams and beam-columns in fire. In Gardner and Baddoo [14], stainless steel beams were also tested in fire.…”

Fire testing and design of slender stainless steel I-sections in weak-axis flexure

“…A plastic effective width method has also been put forward to consider the inelastic local buckling response of outstand flanges in slender I-sections in bending about the weak-axis [5][6][7][8][9][10]. Adopting a revised plate slenderness definition, the plastic effective width method of [7] was recommended in [1] for application to the fire design of stainless steel I-sections in weak-axis flexure, but, thus far, there has been no experimental validation of this recommendation, despite the fire behaviour of stainless steel structures having attracted wide research interest [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”

Analysis on the Dynamic Responses of Steel Beam under the Condition of Heat and Blast Loads

“…It is observed that plasterboard hollow encasement can be used to increase the fire resistance performance of built-up cold-formed steel columns. Xing et al [8] presented eight full-scale anisothermal fire tests on grade 1.4301laser-welded austenitic stainless steel I-section columns. It is obtained that the design method of Kucukler et al [9] provided more reliable ultimate strength predictions for austenitic stainless steel I-section columns in fire.…”
