Pilot Tests on the Ultimate Static Strength of Unsymmetrical Plate Girders

J. R. Dimitri / A. Ostapenko

Eight ultimate load tests were performed on three 36-inch deep unsymmetrical plate girders. One girder was 25 feet long, two were 30 feet long; all girders contained the same cross section; with the area of the bottom flange 2 1/2 times larger than the top flange. The loading conditions employed were pure bending, dominant shear, and combined shear and bending. The test results obtained will serve as a basis for developing a new, more accurate theory for determining the static strength of unsymmetrical plate girders.
