Stainless-clad　(SC)　bimetallic　steel　is　an　advanced　high-performance　(HP)　laminated　steel,　which　combines　benefits　of　both　the　substrate　steel　and　the　cladding　metal.　Therefore　it　has　great　potential　in　structural　engineering　application,　particularly　in　corrosive　environment　and　high　temperature　conditions　due　to　good　corrosion　and　heat　resistance　of　the　stainless　steel　cladding　layer,　respectively.　To　investigate　mechanical　properties　of　the　SC　bimetallic　steel　at　elevated　temperatures,　tension　coupon　tests　are　undertaken　with　temperatures　ranging　from　100　degrees　C　to　950　degrees　C.　Based　on　the　test　results,　stress-strain　curves　and　associated　mechanical　properties　such　as　elastic　modulus,　proof　strength,　ultimate　tensile　stress　and　elongation　percentage　after　fracture　are　obtained.　In　addition,　reduction　factors　of　the　material　properties　compared　with　those　at　ambient　temperature　are　also　determined.　It　is　found　that　with　an　increase　of　the　temperature,　both　the　elastic　modulus　and　the　strengths　are　reduced　markedly.　By　comparing　the　test　results　with　independent　ones　of　conventional　mild　steel　and　stainless　steel　as　well　as　that　suggested　by　national　standards,　it　is　found　that　the　high　temperature　performance　of　the　SC　bimetallic　steel　is　in　between.　Specific　equations　for　predicting　the　elastic　modulus,　proof　strength　and　ultimate　strength　of　the　SC　bimetallic　steel　at　elevated　temperatures　are　proposed　in　this　paper,　with　effect　of　clad　ratios　being　involved,　which　can　be　used　to　evaluate　the　bearing　capacity　of　the　SC　bimetallic　steel　structures　in　fire.　(C)　2019　Elsevier　Ltd.　All　rights　reserved.
