Ultimate strength of steel beam-columns under axial compression
This article presents a semi-analytical method to calculate the ultimate strength of inelastic beam-columns with I-shaped cross section using geometrically exact beam theory. A computer code based on this method has been applied to beam-columns under axial compression. The results agree with nonlinear finite element analysis. Compared with previous step-by-step integration approach, this new method is more efficient and can be extended to multi-span beam-columns and other load combinations including lateral pressure. The presented beam-column model is ideally suited for ultimate strength prediction of stiffened steel panels of ships and offshore structures.
