This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-one W24 hot-rolled columns of ASTM A992 steel with five different sections were tested in Phase 1 of this research program to investigate the effects of slenderness parameters, constant axial load levels, lateral drift loading sequences, and weak-axis bending on the column base responses. It was observed that the webs of these sections with much larger h/ ratios were not as effective in restraining and delaying flange local buckling as those of shallow and stocky (e.g., W12 or W14) columns. Specimens with sections that satisfied the highly ductile requirement in the AISC Seismic Provisions still experienced significant damage and axial shortening due to the interactive flange and web local buckling. An unusual failure mode with local buckling coupled with lateral-torsional buckling was also observed for the first time. Based on these tests results, observed buckling modes were classified, and a simplified procedure to predict the governing buckling mode was proposed. Additional 23 columns including W14, W18, W24, and W30 sections were tested to further evaluate the effects of section depths, boundary conditions, and varying axial loads. Test results revealed that findings from Phase 1 testing could be extrapolated to deeper and shallower sections; the proposed procedure predicted very well the buckling mode of Phase 2 specimens. Allowing the column top end to rotate increased the story drift capacity but did not change the buckling mode. Results from varying axial load tests showed that first-story exterior columns behave very differently from the interior ones. W14 column test results showed that classifying a column as deep or shallow based on the nominal section depth may be inappropriate; the deep column phenomenon with significant interactive local buckling could develop in W14 columns with relatively slender web and flanges.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis investigates nonlinear cyclic responses of deep wide-flange steel beam-columns, which are primarily used in Special Moment Frame (SMF) for their high in-plane, strong-axis moment of inertia to satisfy story drift limits specified in building codes. SMF design principles aim to achieve energy dissipation through plastic hinging of the beams, while flexural yielding of the columns at the base is also permitted. Although behavior of the beams has been extensively researched, that of the columns is lacking especially for deep columns (e.g., W18 to W36). Therefore, cyclic testing of deep columns was conducted to generate experimental database. Due to large width-to-thickness ratios of these sections, test results showed significant web and flange local buckling; some specimens also exhibited lateral-torsional buckling. These local and global instabilities resulted in significant axial shortening and flexural strength degradation. These behaviors differ significantly from those observed in prior testing of shallow W14 columns, featuring excellent ductility capacity at high axial loads. Additionally, the test matrix was designed to investigate the effects of section depths, varying axial loads, lateral-drift loading sequences, and boundary conditions on the column responses. Inevitably in this testing, the responses were also influenced by flexibility of column-end connections. To eliminate this undesired variable from the responses, a procedure was developed to correct the lateral drift response based on the second-order Timoshenko elastic theory. The effects of boundary conditions were further investigated using high-fidelity finite element software ABAQUS. Results show that fixed-fixed and fixed-rotating column responses can be converted to one another.

The purpose of this work, in general, is to supply information and tables, relating to steel construction, of value and service to those interested and engaged in the use of Beth- lehem structural steel shapes and, in particular, to illustrate the advantages and economy of the special structural steel shapes introduced and manufactured by Bethlehem Steel Company. The work is divided into three parts. Part I gives the dimensions, weights and structural properties of the Bethlehem special shapes, or wide flange beam sections, with tables of strength and other data relating to their use as beams, girders and columns in construction. Part II gives similar information and data pertaining to the standard structural steel shapes manufactured by Bethlehem Steel Company. Part III gives information and data concerning steel construction in general, together with a collection of useful tables, rules, etc., for the engineer, architect and draftsman engaged in structural work. The essential data relating to all the special and standard structural steel shapes manufactured by Bethlehem Steel Company is given in Parts I and II. General information applying to both special and standard shapes is given in Part III, as well as much other data that pertains to structural materials not manufactured by Bethlehem Steel Company. The latter data has been selected as a collection of matter of the most frequent use and service to those engaged in structural work. Special care has been exercised in the arrangement of the tabular matter to secure compactness of form and conve- nience for the use of the designer. Such of the tables as were not calculated expressly for this work were obtained from works of presumably independent origin, which were compared for the elimination of errors.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To economically control the drift limits in special moment frames (SMFs), deeper columns than the traditional W14 sections have become more common. The drift of an SMF can be reduced by increasing the bending and shear stiffness of the columns in the frame, and this would also be accomplished by using deeper sections (Shen 2002). However, deeper columns need to be checked against instability since they are more sensitive to local buckling and weak-axis failure modes than stockier columns (NEHRP 2011). The SAC project investigated the behavior of steel moment resisting frame connections after the Northridge Earthquake and some results were extrapolated to column and beam members. However, the project only produced data that led to the prequalification of RBS connections for use with W12 and W14 columns. When testing was performed with deeper column sections, stability problems occurred (FEMA 2000). This study analytically investigates the behavior of deep columns with an exterior RBS connection in a special moment frame. The 40 assemblies studied were designed according to the AISC Provisions (AISC 341, AISC 358, and AISC 360) and modeled with finite element software. A floor slab was not included and monotonic loading displaced the beam tip by 6.0 in. Column sections investigated were W14x426, W24x192, W27x194, and W30x191. The columns were subjected to varying levels of axial load and had medium or weak panel zone strength. Geometric imperfections were included in all models, and some models also included residual stresses. From this study it was concluded that the column depth does not impact the behavior of the connection and deep columns can be used in SMFs. The results show that axial loads have no effect on the column behavior until very high axial loads are applied. It was also shown the twist of the column increases with increasing column depth. Columns with a doubler plate twist more than cases without a doubler plate and the column twist decreases with an increasing axial load.

Download or read book Design of Steel Structures written by Elias G. Abu-Saba and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for classroom teaching in architectural and civil engineering at the graduate and undergraduate levels. Although it has been developed from lecture notes given in structural steel design, it can be useful to practicing engineers. Many of the examples presented in this book are drawn from the field of design of structures. Design of Steel Structures can be used for one or two semesters of three hours each on the undergraduate level. For a two-semester curriculum, Chapters 1 through 8 can be used during the first semester. Heavy emphasis should be placed on Chapters 1 through 5, giving the student a brief exposure to the consideration of wind and earthquakes in the design of buildings. With the new federal requirements vis a vis wind and earthquake hazards, it is beneficial to the student to have some under standing of the underlying concepts in this field. In addition to the class lectures, the instructor should require the student to submit a term project that includes the complete structural design of a multi-story building using standard design procedures as specified by AISC Specifications. Thus, the use of the AISC Steel Construction Manual is a must in teaching this course. In the second semester, Chapters 9 through 13 should be covered. At the undergraduate level, Chapters 11 through 13 should be used on a limited basis, leaving the student more time to concentrate on composite construction and built-up girders.
