A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
A basis for the design of steel columns is offered in this paper. The effect of general imperfections is represented by an assumed form of initial curvature of the axis of the column, or by an eccentricity in the application of the load; the loading first producing yielding in the most stressed fibers, due to the assumed curvature or eccentricity, is then used as the criterion for the selection of the working load.
The proposed method is applied to pin-ended columns under several conditions of loading, design formulas being developed for each case. In addition, an approximate solution is made for the case of columns in rigid frame construction.
The question of shear in built-up steel columns is treated on the same basis and for the same conditions of loading, formulas being developed for the design of lacing or batten-bars in such columns. The paper represents, in somewhat condensed form, work done by the writer in preparing his thesis entitled “Rational Design of Steel Columns.”
