M.Ing. / Design parameters for ferritic type stainless steel structural members do not exist and is needed. This study attempts to find design parameters for ferritic type stainless steel compression elements. The ferritic type stainless steel under consideration in this study is Type 3CR12 corrosion resisting steel, which is a modified Type 409 stainless steel. The purpose of this study was to determine the limiting web width-to-thickness and flange width-to-thickness ratios for the prevention of local buckling in axially loaded hotrolled Type 3CR12 corrosion resisting steel columns. Experimental data was obtained in an ongoing study on the limiting width-to-thickness ratios for elements in compression. No conclusion on this aspect can be reached at this stage of the investigation
