Stainless steels, especially AISI 304 are widely used civil engineering materials because of their excellent properties. They are used/applied in many civil engineering structures (chemical, energy, bridges etc.). The presented study aims to quantify variance of selected properties from various structural elements made from AISI 304. This study shows that the mechanical and fatigue properties of AISI 304 steel used in construction and supplied in different profiles from different suppliers can vary considerably, which must be taken into account when designing structures or its service-life.
