Abstract Eucalyptus nitens (E. nitens) has been much used for producing paper but also shows promise for structural applications. In this study, static compressive tests were undertaken to examine its suitability to be used in an innovative composite column. The composite column was comprised of a rectangular steel tube with E. nitens timber
infill. The nonlinear compressive behaviour of the composite column filled with E. nitens wood for both dry and
wet conditions was examined. The same tests on rectangular steel tubes and bare dry and wet E. nitens samples
were also undertaken as a comparison. For samples with different conditions,… More >
