Stepped steel girders and beams with a jump in section depth are highly susceptible to local web buckling at the step location. Although tapered steel girders have been studied extensively by researchers, abruptly stepped steel girders…
Cold-formed steel (CFS) structural members retain their positions in the lightweight construction industry. This is due to the significant advantages of CFS. The optimization of these CFS elements will allow the construction of economical…
To increase the elastic critical load of a plate, such as I-shaped cross-welded section of bridge girders, slenderness is usually reduced by dividing the web into subpanels, by means of transversal stiffeners and a longitudinal stiffener…
Continuous composite beams may suffer a global instability know as lateral distortional buckling (LDB). The design code EN 1994-1-1:2004 provides a procedure for the verification of this ultimate limit state, in which the resistant bending…
