In order to quantitatively evaluate the shear-bearing capacity of shear connectors of square concrete filled steel tube (CFST), push-out tests on 14 square CFSTs with shear connectors have been carried out. Among the 14 CFSTs, there are 13 specimens with steel plate connectors and one specimen with steel bar connectors. The following factors are investigated to figure out their influences on th...

This study presents a probabilistic, 3-D framework to describe brittle fracture in structural components which incorporates weakest link statistics and a micromechanics model reflecting local damage of material. The Weibull stress (a,) emerges as a fracture parameter to define conditions leading to local material failure. This parameter is correlated with the macroscopic loading and used to des...

The main goal of this study was to develop a new processing technology for a high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel in order to maximize the mechanical properties attainable at its low alloy levels. Samples of the steel were processed using thermal deformation schedules carried out in single-phase (γ) and dual-phase (γ + α) regions. The samples were rolled at unconventional finishing temperatures...

Like all steel types, HSLA requires a definition and strict practical adherence to welding parameters in order to achieve the required weld quality. Different sources offer a varying array of welding parameters. Although their hierarchical importance can be disputed, their principal definition and practical adherence are prerequisites for the quality of welded joints 1,2 . The analysis of earli...
