Abstract: |
Longitudinally profiled steel plates can be applied to steel bridges and make it possible to reduce the construction cost including fabrication cost and material cost. Proposed herein is the longitudinally and transversely profiled steel plates; namely, steel plates with varied thickness in two orthogonal directions. Structural performace superior in strength and ductility will be expected by using such plates to a flange plate as well as a web plate of girders and columns. Parametric study on such a steel plate with several boundary and loading conditions is carried out by means of the elasto-plastic finite displacement analysis. In case of a simply supported steel plate subjected to uniaxial compression, it is concluded that the plate whose thickness along the supported edge is larger can have higher strength and ductility. |
