Abstract:This paper describes experiments addressing the buckling and collapse behaviour of cold‐formed stainless steel cruciform section columns. To build doubly symmetrical flanged cruciform section columns, six individual press‐braked plain channels made of austenitic grade EN 1.4307 were assembled back‐to‐back. Two channel geometries were used – with cross‐section height 200 mm and 100 mm. They were connected using bolts M8 of class 8.8, with equidistant spacings along the column length. Six columns with three diff… Show more
