Abstract

Stepped I-beams having increased moment of inertia at one end (singly stepped beam) or both ends (doubly stepped beams) can often be seen in construction of bridges due to material economy and easy fabrication of the section. This paper presents the results of the parametric study of lateral torsional buckling of monosymmetric stepped I-beams with constant depth subjected to uniform moment. Design recommendations were made based on the finite element results of the models having different combinations of monosymmetric ratio, stepped length ratio, flange thickness ratio and flange width ratio. The proposed approximation is acceptable based on the parameters given having mostly conservative results. The proposed equation can be further used to extend the study to different loading conditions.

단순보 끝단의 단면을 증가시키는 일단과 양단 계단식 단면 변화 I형보는 경제적인 단면활용과 제작의 편의성으로 인하여 교량제작에 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구는 균일 모멘트를 받는 일축대칭 I형 스텝보의 횡-비틀림 좌굴 강도에 관한 연구이다. 유한요소해석이 본 연구에 활용되었으며, 해석매개변수로는 단면변화 길이 비율, 플랜지두께 변화 비율과 플랜지폭 변화 비율 및 다양한 일축대칭비율이 고려되었다. 해석결과를 토대로 제안된 설계강도식은 대부분의 경우에 안전측의 값을 나타내고 있으며, 향후 다양한 하중조건을 고려한 설계식 개발에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
