FRP laminated reinforced steel cylinders under compression have been studied in this paper. The effects of the thickness and fibre orientation of reinforcements as well as initial geometric imperfections on the buckling load carrying capacity and the associated buckling modes have been made clear through three kinds of analytical procedures; the conventional linear eigenvalue buckling analysis, the reduced stiffness buckling analysis and the fully nonlinear numerical experiments. These multiple treatments suggest obtaining valuable information for the design of FRP based hybrid structural elements having the complex buckling collapse behavior.
