Concrete Filled HSS Members

Concrete filled tubes provide a number of distinct advantages over an equivalent steel or steel-reinforced concrete member. Fire resistance, construction efficiency, and buckling resistance are all increased when a cementitious material is placed in the void of a tube. In this presentation we will explore the design and practical implications of using concrete filled HSS on your next project. Learning Objectives Describe the advantages of concrete filled HSS Review different accepted analysis methods Explore the design of concrete filled HSS members under a variety of loading conditions Consider the practical implications of using concrete filled HSS 1 CE credit Presenter: Cathleen Jacinto Date: 2/26/2025
