Heat affects the mechanical properties of steel and the bearing capacity of steel structures,
with joints being a crucial factor in determining their behavior. Steel can regain its …

In order to reveal more information and better understanding on the behavior and failure
mechanisms of high strength steel (HSS) extended endplate connections at ambient …

The current paper deals with numerical simulation of out-of-plane bending (OPB) of steel
tubular T-joints in a standard fire. The data from fire tests, already carried out by the authors …

Almost all previous experimental studies on the fire performance of steel circular hollow
section (CHS) joints were conducted in the absence of external load in the chord [9-15, 17 …

Steel tubular structures are popular in ocean and offshore structures, buildings, bridges,
space frames, mining equipment, recreation structures and transportation vehicles. A tubular …

Corrugated web beams are increasingly being used owing to their light weight and stability
against shear buckling. The modes of shear buckling strength are divided into three …

In this paper, three non-destructive tests were conducted on a post-fire steel bridge, X-ray
fluorescence spectrometry, the ultrasonic wave method, and metallographic replication …

Full-scale experimental study and numerical analysis on behaviors and failure mechanisms
of full high strength steel extended endplate connections in fire have been carried out and …

Purpose In this paper, a closed-form analytical solution for the prediction of moment-rotation
and the rotational stiffness-rotation curves of I-shaped beam to cylindrical column …

Cold-formed thin-walled cross sections are very frequently and efficiently used as secondary
construction elements as well as self-supporting cladding systems. Typically, they are used …
