Abstract HPS 100W is specified in ASTM A 709 (Standard Specification for Carbon and High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Steel Shapes, Plates, and Bars and Quenched-and-Tempered Alloy Structural Steel Plates for Bridges) and is being added to AASHTO M270. Initial applications were planned to be those in which an owner bridge engineer would approve the use of HPS 100W. This steel would be most useful for depth control over piers in long-span girder bridges or controlling the size of high-stressed elements in long-span steel truss bridges. This datasheet provides information on composition and tensile properties. It also includes information on forming and joining. Filing Code: SA-555.

This paper presents a theoretical model describing the column behaviour of cold-formed heat-treated and non-heat-treated hollow structural steel (HSS) shapes. Member cross-sectional parameters in the form of residual stress and yield strength gradients as well as the member initial crookedness are incorporated into the column model. The parameter magnitudes used and their dispositions throughout the model are based on current experimental and theoretical research. The effect and relative importance of these parameters in determining the theoretical column strength is illustrated. The adequacy of the theoretical model in determining HSS column strength is shown by comparing it with the results of experimental tests conducted on full-sized HSS specimens. Finally, design curves for each of the HSS types studied are recommended.
