Notes:
The strengths of PFRP thin-walled columns are determined according to the modes ofbuckling which consist of local mode for short columns, global mode for long columns, andinteraction mode between local and global modes for intermediate columns. Unlike the local andglobal buckling, the buckling strength of interaction mode is not theoretically predictable. Refinedtheoretical approaches which can account for different elastic properties of each plate componentconsisting of a PFRP thin-walled member are used. Based on both the analytical buckling loads andthe experimentally measured buckling loads from literatures, the accuracies of Ylinen’s equation andmodified AISC/LRFD column design equation for isotropic steel columns were compared. From thecomparison, it was found that the modified AISC/LRFD column design equation is more suitable forthe prediction of the buckling loads of PFRP thin-walled members than Ylinen’s equations
