ABSTRACT
A total of three full scale fire tests on ferritic EN 1.4003 stainless steel tubular columns in fire were carried out at the University of Liège (Rossi, 2013). Isothermal tensile coupon tests on material cut from EN 1.4003 cold-rolled sheets were performed in the temperature range of 20-1000◦C and are reported in Manninen and Säynäjäkanas (2012). These results are utilized herein for the development and validation of the numerical models.
