Stainless Steel Compression Members Exposed to Fire
The fire resistance of austenitic stainless steels is known to be better than that of conventional carbon structural steels. The aim of this study was to find out whether any austenitic stainless steels are available for use in buildings as load-bearing structures without fire protection. This is a critical issues, as aesthetic considerations often undergird the use of stainless steels in buildings. Eliminating the fire protection of structures would result in low construction costs, a shorter construction period, more effective interior space utilization, a better working environment and more aesthetic building design.
