Book description
While giving a thorough overview of the structural behaviour and
design of cold-formed tubular members and connections, this book also
considers the special characteristics of cold-formed steel hollow sections
such as rounded stress-strain material behaviour, variation of yield stress
around the section, and unique failure modes.
Topics include: members subjected to bending, compression, combined bending
and compression, local buckling under concentrated force, effect of bending
on bearing capacity, tension members and welds in thin-walled tubes, welded
connections subjected to fatigue loading, effect of concrete-filling and
large-deformation cyclic loading on limiting width-to-thickness ratios,
fatigue design using hot spot stress method, bolted moment end plate
connections and plastic design of portal frames.
The book also provides design examples in accordance with both the
Australian Standard AS4100 and the British Standard BS5950 Part 1. It
is an ideal reference companion for structural engineers, researchers and
university students interested in tubular steel structures.
