Limit States Design of Crane Runway Girders: Research Report R967
Published 2021Steel crane runway girders are subjected to torsion by their eccentric loads. The twist rotation of the principal axes caused by torsion induces additional bending moments, and reduces the resistance to lateral buckling. ...Report, Research -
Generalised component method-based finite element analysis of steel frames (No. R969)
Published 2021This report presents a new analysis approach that incorporates macro-element joint models based on the Generalised Component Method in the FE analysis of steel frame buildings. The new analysis approach is termed Generalised ...Open AccessReport, Research -
The Shift of the Effective Centroid in Plain Channel Section Columns (No. R966)
Published 2020-01-01The report derives an equation for the shift of the effective centroid that occurs in plain channel section columns as a result of local buckling. The shift causes bending when the column is compressed between pinned ends ...Open AccessReport, Research -
