The local buckling strength and post-local buckling strength of thin steel plates in the steel-concrete composite column were evaluated by nonlinear finite element analyses. The proposed width-to-thickness limit ratio was based on elastic buckling analyses, in which the increased local buckling capacity of the plate due to the in-filled concrete was considered by the boundary conditions of the thin plate. Considering the initial imperfections and residual stresses, we determined the initial local buckling strength and post-local buckling strength of the thin plates with various width-to-thickness ratios. The formula to evaluate the compressive capacity of the steel-concrete composite column based on the effective width of the plate was proposed. For verification, values determined by the formula were compared with the experimental results.

Recently, there have been the increase of ship size and the development of oil and gas in arctic region. These trends have led to the requirements such as high strength, good toughness at low temperature and good weldability for prevent of brittle fracture at service temperature. There has been the key issue of crack arrestability in large size structure such as container ship. In this report for the first time, crack arrest toughness of thick steel plate welds was evaluated by large scale ESSO test for estimate of brittle crack arrestability in thick steel plate. For large structures using thick steel plates, fracture toughness of welded joint is an important factor to obtain structural integrity. In general, there are two kinds of design concepts based on fracture toughness: crack initiation and crack arrest. So far, when steel structures such as buildings, bridges and ships were manufactured using thick steel plates (max. 80~100mm in thickness), they had to be designed in order to avoid crack initiation, especially in welded joint. However, crack arrest design has been considered as a second line of defense and applied to limited industries like pipelines and nuclear power plants. Although welded joint is the weakest part to brittle fracture, there are few results to investigate crack arrest toughness of welded joint. In this study, brittle crack arrest designs were developed for hatch side coaming of large container ships using arrest weld, hole, and insert technology.

The primary object of the paper is to identify the compression forces and inelastic failure behavior using steel plate-concrete structures. The compression tests were carried out for the three types of B/tratios by 25, 33 and 50. The tests proved that the compressive strength of the SC structures can be estimated by the summation of strengths both of the steel plate and concrete. The buckling of the steel plates had been occurring at the plates between studs. The empirical estimation of compressive strength for unstiffened SC structures under compressive loadings was suggested. The buckling behavior was also compared with the results of the finite element analysis.

The objective of this paper is to identify the compression forces and inelastic failure mode using stiffened steel plate-concrete structures. The compression tests were carried out for the three types of B/t ratios by 25, 33 and 50. The test results proved that the compressive strength of the stiffened SC structures can be estimated by the summation of the strengths both stiffened steel plate and concrete. The buckling of the steel plates had been occurred at the plates between studs. The empirical estimation of compressive strength for the stiffened SC structures under compressive loadings was suggested. The buckling behavior also compared with the results of the finite element analysis. The good agreement has been achieved between the experimental results and finite element results.
