Abstract
This article reviews contemporary North American and international approaches to the design of concrete-filled hollow structural section (HSS) members for flexure, axial compression plus uniaxial bending, tension, and shear. Results from tests on concrete-filled HSS members under flexure and combined loading are compared to predicted strengths using current (CSA S16:19 and AISC 360-16) and recommended CSA S16 design equations (with limits of validity). A first-order reliability analysis of design provisions for flexure is performed in accordance with CSA S408-11, and recommendations are made for potential revision of CSA S16. Design examples are provided, and results are compared to the counterpart American code (AISC 360-16). This paper is Part II of a two-part series. Part I covers materials, cross-section classification, and concentrically loaded columns.
