Interaction Buckling of Tapered Beams (No. R955)
Published 2013There have been comparatively few studies of the elastic lateral buckling of braced or continuous tapered beams, and these are limited in their application. Lateral buckling is affected by the separate effects of moment ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Reliability-Based Design of Truss Structures by Advanced Analysis (No. R936)
Published 2013A formwork for determining a system resistance factor in LRFD is presented. A truss composed of HSS members based on current design specifications is chosen for analysis. To reflect real structures, the truss system is ...Open AccessReport, Research -
In-Plane Behaviour of Mono-Symmetric Tapered Beams (No. R957)
Published 2015Shear stress distributions in mono-symmetric tapered I-beams are incorrectly predicted by the conventional beam analysis method used for uniform beams. More accurate predictions are obtained by assuming that the normal ...Open AccessReport, Research -
A Laboratory Facility for Flocculation-Related Experiments (No. R952)
Published 2015This report describes the design and functions of a new experimental facility built in the School of Civil Engineering at the University of Sydney used for the investigation of flocculation-related processes. This facility ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Torsion Equations for Lateral Buckling (No. R964)
Published 2016A torsion differential equation previously used for analysing the elastic lateral buckling of simply supported doubly symmetric beams with distributed loads acting away from the centroidal axis omits an expected term and ...Open AccessReport, Research
