Abstract
Thin‐walled cold‐formed steel elements represent an attractive structural solution due to the fast manufacturing and erection time on‐site. Their small thickness leads to imperfection and sensitivities to eccentricities. An experimental programme was performed on short members with lipped channel cross section, subjected to eccentric compression about the minor and major axes, in a large range of eccentricities. The specimens were manufactured on a folding machine. Before testing, the dimensions of all specimens were measured. Shortening of all specimens was measured in two ways, i.e., 1) using the displacement gauge integrated with the machine crosshead beam and 2) from deformation fields obtained using digital image correlation (DIC) system. The quantitative results, presented as the ultimate loads versus the eccentricity curve, emphasise the influence of the eccentric load on the capacity of the element. Finite element (FE) analyses were performed to simulate the behaviour of short members in eccentric compression using the commercial FE software ABAQUS/CAE and ANSYS. Static non‐linear analyses were conducted in displacement control. Both geometrical and material nonlinearities were included. An isotropic linearly elastic‐perfectly plastic constitutive model was considered, with von Mises yielding the criterion and associated flow rule. Failure modes were identified due to numerical and experimental tests. Plastic mechanism models were derived, resulting in the derivation of post‐ultimate, rigid‐plastic curves, characterising a post‐ultimate structural behaviour.
期刊介绍:
Steel Construction publishes peerreviewed papers covering the entire field of steel construction research. In the interests of "construction without depletion", it skilfully combines steel with other forms of construction employing concrete, glass, cables and membranes to form integrated steelwork systems. Since 2010 Steel Construction is the official journal for ECCS- European Convention for Constructional Steelwork members. You will find more information about membership on the ECCS homepage. Topics include: -Design and construction of structures -Methods of analysis and calculation -Experimental and theoretical research projects and results -Composite construction -Steel buildings and bridges -Cable and membrane structures -Structural glazing -Masts and towers -Vessels, cranes and hydraulic engineering structures -Fire protection -Lightweight structures
