9781528125574: Compressive Strength of Column Web Plates and Wide Web Columns

Synopsis

This book, published in the 1920s, presents findings from a rigorous study focused on compressive strength in steel plates. The main objective of the investigation was to verify a commonly accepted structural design rule, which stated that wide web plates in compression should not exceed in width thirty times the thickness of the plate. Furthermore, the book includes an in-depth analysis of the strength of laterally supported wide webbed columns as well as a comparison of the merits of single-plate and double-plate webs of equal thickness. The tests conducted by the author and presented in the book showed that while the common design rule was conservative, buckling strength is also heavily dependent on the mechanical properties of the material, and that the buckling resistance of a plate could be computed for materials with known properties.
