This paper presents a test program on flexural behaviour of concrete-filled stainless steel circular hollow section (CHS) tubes under in-plane bending. A total of 27 specimens including 18 concrete-filled stainless steel CHS flexural members and 9 empty stainless steel CHS flexural members were tested. The ultimate strengths, failure modes, flexural stiffness, ductility, bending moment-midspan deflection curves, overall deflection curves and strain distribution curves of test specimens are reported. It is demonstrated that the ultimate strength, initial stiffness and ductility of empty stainless steel CHS flexural members are significantly enhanced by filling the concrete in the specimen along its full length, The enhancement is increased with the increase of the thickness of the CHS tube. Furthermore, the concrete strength has little influence on the ultimate strength, initial stiffness and ductility of concrete-filled stainless steel CHS flexural members. The test flexural stiffness including both initial flexural stiffness and flexural stiffness at the serviceability limit state of concrete-filled stainless steel CHS tubes under in-plane bending were compared with the design flexural stiffness calculated using the current AIJ standard, BS 5400, Eurocode 4 and AISC specification for concrete-filled steel tubes. It is shown from the comparison that the current design rules are all unconservative for initial flexural stiffness and flexural stiffness at the serviceability limit state of concrete-filled stainless steel CHS tubes under in-plane bending with high scatter of predictions.
