ANALYSIS OF CORRUGATED STEEL WEB GIRDERS BY AN EFFICIENT BEAM BENDING THEORY

Design aspects of steel I-girders with corrugated steel webs

Corrugated web girders represent a new structural system emerged in the past two decades. The girder’s flanges provide the flexural strength of the girder with no contribution from the corrugated web which provides the girder’s shear capacity. Failure of the web occurs by steel yielding, web buckling or interactively between them. Lateral torsion and local flange buckling of corrugated web gird...

PREDICTION OF BIAXIAL BENDING BEHAVIOR OF STEEL-CONCRETE COMPOSITE BEAM-COLUMNS BY ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK

In this study, the complex behavior of steel encased reinforced concrete (SRC) composite beam–columns in biaxial bending is predicted by multilayer perceptron neural network. For this purpose, the previously proposed nonlinear analysis model, mixed beam-column formulation, is verified with biaxial bending test results. Then a large set of benchmark frames is provided and P-Mx-My triaxial ...

Response of Fire Exposed Steel Bridge Girders

The Bending Stiffnesses of Corrugated Board

In this work, an analytical study on the bending stiffnesses of corrugated board has been performed. Formulations to calculate the bending stiffnesses D11, D22, D12, and D66 of the equivalent plate representing the corrugated board have been established, and then compared to expressions suggested by other investigators. Several methods for modeling the shape of the corrugated orthotropic medium...

Bending Analysis of Thick Isotropic Plates by Using 5th Order Shear Deformation Theory

A 5th order shear deformation theory considering transverse shear deformation effect as well as transverse normal strain deformation effect is presented for static flexure   analysis of simply supported isotropic plate. The assumed displacement field accounts for non-linear variation of in-plane displacements as well as transverse displacement through the plate thickness. The condition of zero ...
