Column tests subjected to compressive loading were carried out for the estimation of compression buckling strength of steel plate SM570 in beam-column member under high axial load. It was found that the maximum strength of column member was determined by local buckling when satisfied with a limit of width-to-thickness ratio in current steel structure design specifications, but decreased suddenly by local buckling before the maximum strength in case of not satisfying with that ratio. Also, the compression buckling strength of SM570 plate was higher than the design specification value of 4$4.1tonf/cm^2$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety and rationality of buckling strength and length coefficient by comparing with the design standards of domestic and foreign compression materials based on the buckling test results of circular steel pipe with ball joints. The types of round steel pipes selected for buckling performance evaluation were ø$48.6{\times}2.8t$, ø$60.5{\times}3.2t$ and ø$76.3{\times}3.2t$. For the design of domestic and foreign compression materials, Korea 's Load Resistance and Factor Design, Japan' s Limit State Design, and British Standard BS5950 standard were applied. In this study, we compared and analyzed the buckling performance between the experimental results of the previous research and the domestic and foreign design standards. The results were summarized as follows. As a result of applying the full length of the member to the buckling length in the compression materials design standards of each country, it was 64-89% of the buckling strength by the experiment. Therefore, it is deemed desirable to perform the member design according to the current design standard formula for safety. Experimental results show that the measured buckling strength was 1.02-1.43 times higher than the buckling strength of pure cylindrical steel tubes in the design standards of Korea, Japan and the United Kingdom compression materials. Consequently, it seemed that the buckling strength of individual member in the design of space frame structure should be considered buckling coefficient as the length of pure round steel pipe rather than the length of inter-node.

A tubular member with through-gusset plate is often used to transmit axial compression in an electric transmission towers. In current code, the strength of tubular member is evaluated with an effective length factor k=0.9 without considering the deformation of boundary element. A buckling strength of member with end gusset plate is affected by stiffness ratio($\beta$) and the length ratio(G) between main tubular member and end gusset plate. In this study theoretical mechanism based on the elastic buckling behavior was investigated, and finite element analysis was performed to propose a formula for the buckling strength and effective length factor of tubular member in elsatic and inelastic ranges.

It is proposed in this paper the practical load carrying capacity formula for web crippling in trapezoidal sheeting (deckplate). The parameter functions are derived by investigation of the major parameters influencing of load carrying capacity based on the existing theoretical research with experiment analogical interpretation model. The simple strength formula is proposed in analytic comparison of each parameters with the existing experimental data. From statistical evaluations due to Annex Z of Eurocode 3 the partial safety resistance factors ${\gamma}_M$ are calculated and compared with the target value of 1.1.

This paper presents modelling approaches for the global and distortional buckling of cold-formed built-up steel sections using the finite element software packages, ANSYS and ABAQUS. Thin thickness of the cold-formed steel causes nonlinear behaviour due to local and distortional buckling, thus careful consideration is required in modelling for numerical analysis. Implicit static modelling using ANSYS provides unstable numerical results as the load approaches the limit point but explicit dyamic modelling with ABAQUS is able to display the behaviour even in post-buckling range. Meanwhile, axial load capacities obtained from the numerical analysis show higher values than the experimental axial capacities, due to eccentricity during the test. Axial capacities of the cold-formed steel obtained through numerical analysis requires reduction factor, and this paper suggests 0.88 for the factor.

The objective of this study is to investigate the criteria of the width-to-thickness ratio and to evaluate the buckling strength of high strength steel beam-columns and to compare their buckling strength with design codes, which are the Limit State Design code and the Allowable Stress Desogn code(drift). SM520TMC and SM570Q class steels are used for high strength steels. The coupon test and the stub column test were carried out to investigate the properties of high strength steels and the stress-strain curves of stub columns. The buckling strength of high strength steel beam-columns are assessed by numerical analysis used axial force, moment and curvature relationships.

Many study have been performed to describe the elastic and inelastic behavior of H-shaped beams with web openings that generally concentrated on the monotonic loading condition and concentric web opening. The findings of the studies led Darwin to propose formulas for the design of beams with web openings considering local buckling. While the formulas are simple and useful in real situation, more studies arc needed on their cyclic loading condition. In this experimental study, 12 H-shaped beams with web openings under cyclic loading condition were investigated. The dimension criteria based on the formulas proposed by Darwin were examined. The suitability of existing design formulas and the effects of plastic hinges on beams with web openings and of local buckling around web openings on the beam strength under cyclic loading were also studied. This was done by observing their behavior with various dimensional openings, eccentric per cent, and stiffeners.

A tubular member holding an axially through-gusset connection is often used to transmit axial compression in a steel truss structures. The elastic buckling loads of the member is affected by the stiffness ratio($\beta$) and the length ratio(G) because of two elements with different properties. In current code, however, the strength is evaluated with an effective length factor k=0.9 without considering the above effect. Therefore this study analyzed a theoretical mechanism based on the elasticity theory and performed a finite element analysis to investigate the influence parameters on the elastic buckling strength of axially loaded member.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the structural behavior of concrete filled steel tubular columns subjected to eccentric load. With experiment and analytical study, the buckling behavior of columns is investigated and compared with each other to the view of main parameters. Appling foreign standards in the experimental results, we suggested new strength formula of concrete-filled steel tubular columns. The parameters are slenderness, eccentric ratio, and concrete filled or not. The experiment are carried out by simple loading.

This paper described the ultimate strength and deformation limit of welded T-joints in cold-formed square hollow sections. Previous studies showed that the T-joint has an obvious peak load. with the failure mode of chord-web buckling at a ratio of branch width to chord width ($\beta$) of above 0.8. Similar to a T-joint with chord-flange failure mode, the strength at a certain deformation limit can be regarded as the ultimate strength of a T-joint Based on the experimental results including tests done by Kato and Zhao, the deformation limit was proposed as 3%B for $10.7{\leq}2{\gamma}(B/T){\leq}42.3$ and $0.8{\leq}{\beta}{\leq}1.0$. The strength formula of CIDECT and those of other researchers were also compared with the test results. Finally, the strength formula based on the column buckling was proposed.
