Optimal Plastic Design of Beams with Segmentation
Abstract Owing to the very high cost of labour involved in their construction, beams of continuously varying cross-section are usually uneconomical, unless they have a very long span or are manufactured by repetitive/automated production. However, the beam geometry can be kept simple and thereby significant labour cost savings can be achieved if segmentation is introduced. This means that the total length D of the beam is divided into segments (D α , α = 1,…, ω) and over each segment the variation of the cross-section is partially prescribed.
