Structural design of cold worked austenitic stainless steel

Project reference: 7210-PR/318

Funded under: ECSC-STEEL C

Structural design of cold worked austenitic stainless steel

From 2001-07-01 to 2004-06-30

Project details
Total cost:

Topic(s):

EUR 915 500

F6 - Steel structures

EU contribution:
Funding scheme:
EUR 549 300
CSC - Cost-sharing contracts

Coordinated in:
United Kingdom

Objective
The objective of the project is to develop comprehensive design rules suitable for structural elements made from cold worked
stainless steel. The overall objective will be achieved by generating test results on commonly used materials grades at a range
of cold worked strength levels, developing numerical models based on standardised methods and validated against the test
results, developing a methodology in the form of design rules suitable for incorporation into standards which enable cold
worked stainless steels to be used cost effectively and safely in structures, ensuring that the deliverables of the project are in a
format that is readily disseminated and used in the EU.
