Özet

Modern codes contain application rules based essentially on monotonic tests that allow the design of welded connections between a profile with H section and a plate or a beam flange without transverse stiffeners in the H section. The validity of such designs has been tested in cyclic plastic conditions on 5 specimens. The results indicate that the design procedure in codes is on the safe side in cyclic conditions.

Abstract

Modern codes contain application rules based essentially on monotonic tests that allow the design of welded connections between a profile with H section and a plate or a beam flange without transverse stiffeners in the H section. The validity of such designs has been tested in cyclic plastic conditions on 5 specimens. The results indicate that the design procedure in codes is on the safe side in cyclic conditions.
