Abstract
Despite many papers on the structural response of thin circular sections, the effect of large imperfections –
largely imposed due to damage, collisions, etc. – still leaves many open questions. Over the past few years
however, there has been a significant body of tests on steel members with large imperfections, conducted by the
authors at the University of Tasmania, with a particular focus on circular hollow sections under different loading
conditions. The effect of geometrical irregularities of such structures was examined and subsequently presented
in several papers. This paper incorporates these new advances into an organized summary, including key
findings of the mentioned experimental data on the effect of local damages on the capacity of different
structures with various geometrical features. Discussions are presented on the topic and some general
recommendations made in relation to real structures in practice.
