Abstract

![CDATA[This paper presents an experimental investigation of welded slender high strength composite box sections. The average yield strength of steel is 760 MPa and average compressive strength of infill concrete is 111 MPa. A total of 15 test specimens, having width-to-thickness ratios (b/t) ranged from 15 to 40, were tested to failure. The axial load-deformation behaviour and failure mode of the tested specimens were presented herein. In addition, calculated ultimate axial strengths using the current design provisions are compared with the experimental ultimate axial strengths to verify the adequacy of the current design provisions concerning very high strength composite box columns.]]
