geometric and material nonlinear behavior of slender webs in i-column girders having stocky flanges under the action of combined lateral and axial loads is investigated. interaction curves corresponding to the application of compressive and shear loads at buckling and ultimate stages for both web plates and column sections are plotted. in addition, the effects of flange and web slenderness rati...

the plate girders are used in important structural systems. the earlier design of plate girders was restricted to their critical bukling capacity. experimental and theoretical studies show the plate girders with vertical stiffners can carry load over than their critical buckling loads and then in modern design codes is permitted to use post- buckling capacity of them. in this case the out- of- ...

Growing human population has caused the increase in the tempo of construction activity world wide.Since new techniques are either available or constantly emerging the sites which have been deemed unsuitable are being put to use for the construction of new and challenging structures. The foundations for the residential buildings in paddy fields and marshy land with water table near the ground le...

Masonry infill has been widely used as building material due to its cost effectiveness and availability.  The failure of these masonry infill walls during the past earthquakes have underscored the importance of ensuring the safety of the infill walls when it is subjected to lateral loads. In-plane and out of plane failures have been observed in many reinforced concrete framed building with maso...

In recent years, for the influence of all kinds natural disasters, transmission tower’s collapsing or line’s damage presents a growing trend. The assembly stress in towers is often ignored when people analyze accidents. To study actual stress, production process should be summarized and simulated. Find out method to calculate simulate by using finite element analysis software. Trussed beam hybr...

A p-y curve method of pile near cohesionless soil slope under reversed lateral load is proposed. This takes into account the failure mode around and interaction between soil, derives ultimate resistance pile. Considering change original stress state due to deflection foundation, influence relative density, initial mean effective foundation on internal friction angle sand evaluated further accur...

This paper is concerned with analysis for the strengthening effect of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) on steel columns under cyclic lateral loading in thermal environment. Based on the finite element theory of thermo-elastic problem and steel structure stability theory, the hysteretic behavior of axial compression steel columns was studied by using Ansys software. The main variables inve...

Six RC short-limb shear walls with an L-shaped section, constructed high-strength rebar and concrete, were loaded to destruction pseudo-static loading. Experimental results discussed compared horizontal in detail. Different failure modes obtained, such as flexure-dominated for specimens aspect ratio of 2.8 2.15 bending-shear 1.75. With a decrease the ratio, ductility decreased, whereas increase...
