T-stubs are important components in the application of component method; hence it is crucial to clarify T-stub mechanism for analysis mechanical properties steel joints. In this study, behavior was assessed via 6 static tests and 18 finite element models. The influences flange thickness, bolt spacing, diameter, stiffener rib on initial stiffness, ultimate bearing capacity, force were analyzed. ...

Nowadays, Engineers are actively seeking to improve construction materials and properties. In that, the usage of castellated beam is become very popular due its advantageous structural applications. existing researches described presence large openings in web that creates different mechanical behaviour compared strong beams. While it does not deal with shear strength performances beam, which li...
