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 -
Analysis-based 2D design of steel storage racks (No. R908)
Published 2010The report presents a study of the capacities of steel rack frames based on linear analysis (LA), geometric nonlinear analysis (GNA) and geometric and material nonlinear analysis (GMNIA). In the case of linear and geometric ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Steel Cantilever Strength by Inelastic Lateral Buckling (No. R912)
Published 2010Methods used for the design of steel beams supported at both ends are not well suited for the design of cantilevers against lateral buckling. The end restraints are very different for cantilevers, and the maximum displacements ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Shear Effect on Cruciform Post-Buckling (No. R929)
Published 2012The elastic post-torsional-buckling behaviour of a simply supported cruciform column has been analysed, and its strength has been approximated by assuming that it fails when it first yields due to the maximum normal stress ...Open AccessReport, Research
