Flexural-Torsional Buckling of Columns with Oblique Eccentric Restraints (No. R841)
Published 2004This paper is concerned with the elastic flexural-torsional buckling of concentrically loaded columns with oblique eccentric restraints. Oblique flexural restraints may resist deflections as well as flexural rotations, ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Dynamic Response of a Circular Tunnel with a Piecewise Lining and Embedded in a Poroelastic Medium (No. R853)
Published 2005In this paper, dynamic response of a circular tunnel with prefabricated piecewise lining embedded in a porous medium subjected to seismic waves is studied. The surrounding saturated porous medium of the tunnel is described ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Strength of Welded T-Joint Truss Connections between Equal Width Cold-Formed RHS (No. R831)
Published 2003The report describes laboratory tests of arc welded T-joints between equal width rectangular hollow sections. The brace and chord members were cold formed with a nominal yield stress of 350 MPa. The welds were laid using ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Design of Angle Columns with Locally Unstable Legs (No. R830)
Published 2003The report is concerned with angle section columns whose legs are slender and thus subject to local buckling in their ultimate limit state. For such slender angle sections, the local buckling mode is identical to the ...Open AccessReport, Research -
On the Strength of Cast Iron Columns (No. R829)
Published 2003The aim of the report is to show that modern methods of verification of steel structures can be used for the structural appraisal of old cast-iron columns. The proposed method of verification takes account of the geometrical ...Open AccessReport, Research
