The present paper reports a thorough experimental and numerical study of the structural
behaviour and resistances of S960 ultra-high strength steel welded I-section columns failing …

This paper investigated the static stability behaviours of H-shaped beam steel single-layer
reticulated shells with and without roofing systems by proposing a new verified numerical …

The purpose of this paper is to validate the General Method for the stability check of
unrestrained I-section web-tapered columns in fire situation. The General Method (clause …

The present investigation describes a numerical and parametric study on the validation of
the General Method (GM) for the fire design of web-tapered steel beams using GMNIA. The …

A novel analytical model is proposed for establishing design criteria based on the
decomposition of the in-plane deformation and out-of-plane stability states. First part of this …

The adoption of steel in the construction industry will consistently grow due to rapid
urbanisation and the demand of more structures and infrastructures. The main reasons of …

Beam‐columns of uniform rolled or equivalent welded sections are the member types most
commonly used in steel skeletal structures. EN1993‐1‐1 [1] provides two design procedures …

The present investigation describes the final piece of a three-part numerical parametric
study on the validation and calibration of the General Method (GM) for the fire design of web …

Metal columns of hollow and smoothly variable cross-sections, simply supported at their
ends are considered in the paper. Columns of such shapes are recently frequently designed …

Steel prismatic elements of equal flanges double-tee section subject to major axis bending
and compression, unrestrained in the out-of-plane direction between the supports, are …
