Abstract

An experimental and numerical investigation into the flexural buckling behaviour of cold-formed (CF) high-strength steel (HSS) square hollow section (SHS) members is reported in this paper. A series of 12 flexural buckling tests were conducted on S700 and S900 CF SHS columns. Finite element (FE) models were developed to simulate the experimental observations, which were utilized in a parametric study encompassing a broader range of steel grades and specimen geometries. Subsequently, the current buckling curves in European, North American, and Australian codes was evaluated through reliability analyses. Meanwhile, the effective width method (EWM) and the modified generalized slenderness-based resistance method (GRSM) were compared for slender cross-sections. According to the results of reliability analyses, the modified buckling curves were proposed for CF HSS SHS columns.
