Tests of Unstiffened Elements under Combined Compression and Bending (No. R818)
Published 2002Details of a dual-actuator rig developed for testing rectangular plates simply supported on three sides, with the remaining (longitudinal) edge free, under combined uni-axial compression and in-plane bending are presented. ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Compression Tests of Cold-Reduced High Strength Steel Stub Columns (No. R815)
Published 2002This report describes a series of compression tests performed on stub columns fabricated from cold-formed high strength steel plates with nominal yield stress of 550 MPa. The steel is classified as G550 to Australia Standard ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Compression Tests of Cold-Reduced High Strength Steel Long Columns (No. R816)
Published 2002This report describes a series of compression tests performed on long columns fabricated from cold-formed high strength steel plates with nominal yield stress of 550 MPa. The steel is classified as G550 to Australia Standard ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Elastic and Plastic Effective Width Equations for Unstiffened Elements (No. R819)
Published 2002Current American design provisions treat unstiffened elements under stress gradients as if they were uniformly compressed for effective width calculations. Australian, British and European design provisions allow accurate ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Out-of-Plane Advanced Analysis of Steel Structures (No. R823)
Published 2002Attempts to extend practical advanced analyses of the in-plane behaviour of 2-D steel frames under in-plane loading to out-of-plane behaviour have been largely unsuccessful because of difficulties in modeling the effects ...Open AccessReport, Research
