Abstract

Concrete filled stainless steel tubular (CFSST) columns have attracted increasing research interests in the last decade. This paper briefly introduces the material properties of stainless steel and reviews recent research on behaviour of CFSST columns and joints at both ambient and elevated temperatures. The reviewed studies include tests of bond behaviour between the stainless steel tube and core concrete, and the static behaviour of CFSST stub columns, slender columns, beams, stainless steel-concrete-carbon steel double-skin tubular columns, and concrete filled bimetallic tubular columns. The cyclic behaviour of CFSST beam-columns under combined axial and lateral cyclic loading as well as the impact behaviour of CFSST columns is also introduced. Fire test results of full-scale CFSST columns are presented along with finite element analysis results. The behaviour of composite joints with CFSST columns is also briefly reviewed in this paper. Based on the previous research, future research directions on CFSST are summarised and discussed.
