steel structureStainless steel has significant performance in corrosion resistance, while it seldom used in structural skeletons of buildings for the high cost. However, considering the recent change in social thinking from mass production and abundant consumption to ecological coexistence with natural environment, the concept of long life sustaining is of much importance in construction engineering.

 

A recent Program for utilizing thin stainless steel plates in building construction was outlined. The establishing of a committee by the SSBA, material grades of stainless steel, topics of research assigned in the Program are briefly presented. Since local buckling is the most critical concern in the design of light-weight steel structures, state-of-the-art design approach for taking account of local buckling of thin stainless steel members is reported here.
