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 -
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 -
Strength Design of Cruciform Steel Columns (No. R921)
Published 2011Very different strengths are predicted by two different methods of designing steel cruciform columns. Both methods require design against local and flexural buckling, and while one method also requires design against ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Design of Perforated Thin-Walled Steel Columns (No. R949)
Published 2014The strength database from the parametric study presented in (Yao and Rasmussen 2014) was used to evaluate an overall number of 19 design methods based on the DSM for non-perforated and perforated thin-walled steel columns ...Open AccessReport, Research
