Local and global stability of I steel members with tapered web via advanced nonlinear analysis
Steel structural elements with variable cross section,made of welded plates,are largely used in the construction industry for both beams and columns in accordance with the stress and stiffness demand in the structure.These types of elements are mainly used for the design of singles storey frames with pitched roof rafters and pinned column base.Although they are partially restrained against out of plane buckling by side-rails and roof purlins cooperating with sheeting,in current design practice it is quite difficult to evaluate their influence.Present paper deals with nonlinear elastic-plastic analysis of tapered beam-columns,parts of portal frames,subjected to both bending moment and compressive axial force.Failure of such members may occur by in-plane bending,local buckling and combination between these two,for members with low non-dimensional slenderness.Numerical results will be compared with experimental tests,obtained for a relevant number of specimens,in order to check the reliability of the numerically determined ultimate capacity of the elements.The influence of both lateral and torsional restraints applied on the beam-column will also be discussed.
