Abstract	The Large Hadron Collider delivered $pp$ collision data at a record energy of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV during 2015 and 2016. This increase in centre-of-mass energy from 8 to 13 TeV Run yields a significant increase in the production cross section for squarks and gluinos. Here, the first results of dedicated searches for strongly produced supersymmetric particles making use of the full 13 TeV dataset from 2015 and 2016 are presented by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations. No significant excess beyond the Standard Model expectation is observed in any analysis, and limits are placed on sparticle masses in the context of Supersymmetry-inspired simplified models.
