High‐strength steel materials (steel grades of S500 ‐ S960) gaining prominence in civil engineering, especially for large‐span bridges. In the case of bridges, the application of hybrid girders combining low‐ and high‐strength steel materials is an effective and economical solution. The hybrid girders generally consist of webs comprised of low‐strength steel and flanges made of high‐strength steel. In Europe, apart from some minor practical applications and research results in Sweden, these structure types are completely new solutions in bridges, and the theoretical background of their stability design is missing from the current European standardized design provisions. To determine the theoretical background of this girder type and to develop the design theories for application purposes it is essential to execute experimental laboratory test programs. Analyzing the local buckling and plastic behavior of hybrid steel plate girders through experiments is essential to have an approopriate knowledge on the geometrical and structural imperfections of the hybrid girders. Therefore, in the present paper the measurement of geometric imperfection on 14 welded hybrid steel box‐section girders with varying geometry is presented and their results are evaluated and discussed. The flanges of the examined hybrid girders are made of S700 or S500, the web of the specimens consists of S355 steel grade. The measured imperfection values are evaluated based on the steel grade and geometric parameters such as plate width or thickness. Using the measured imperfection, a numerical model will be developed to predict the bending and shear resistance of the specimens. |
