Drop Test of Dolos Armor Units
Dolosse are concrete armor units used for the cover layer on many breakwaters and jetties. In order to study their complex loads and structural response, a prototype study at Crescent...

Wind-Induced Response of a Tall Building and Comparisons With Wind Tunnel Predictions
This paper describes the measured wind-induced response of a tall office tower and comparisons made with wind tunnel studies of the building. The use of an innovative structural system...

Simulation Algorithms for Offshore Structures
A rational procedure for characterization of water depths for a random sea state is developed, in context with linearized wave theory. The importance of using the expressions for 'intermediate...

Time Domain Structural Parameters Identification
Identification techniques for linear lumped-parameters models of vibrating structures are critically assessed using data produced by numerical simulations. The structural model is excited...

Anchorage Forces for Z-Purlin Supported Standing Seam Roof Systems
This paper presents the results of a limited study to determine if the provisions of Section D. 3. 2. 1 'Anchorage Bracing for Roof Systems Under Load with Top Flange Connected...

Rational Design Approach for Tension on the Net Section
A study of the bearing and net section capacities of bolt connections for material thicknesses encountered in cold-formed members was conducted. This paper summarizes the findings as they...

Stability and Limit Loads of Steel Space Trusses
An investigation of the behavior of cold-formed steel space truss structures, under the interaction of local, member, and overall buckling is described. A Finite Element computer program...

Flexibly Connected Thin-Walled Steel Frame Response
The static response of flexibly connected plane frames composed of thin-walled steel members is presented. Analysis capabilities include post-local-buckling strength and elastic semi-rigid...

Buckling of Thin-Walled Members by p-Version of FEM
P-Version of the finite element method (FEM) is used for one-D and three-D modeling of thin-walled open sections and axial compressive load. Equal angle and channel sections are used for...

Bending Strength of Thin Cold-Formed Steel Straight Panels
An experimental investigation on the bending strength of 26 gage cold-formed corrugated steel straight panels with web-depth to thickness (h/t) ratio of 475 is presented. A typical test...

Multiple Bolt Row Moment End-Plates
This paper presents a portion of the results of a study to develop design procedures for the extended, multiple row, moment end-plate configuration. This configuration is used in steel...

Behavior and Design of Semi-Rigid Composite Frames
Recent advances and experimental research on the behavior of composite semi-rigid frames indicates that substantial savings can be achieved with this method of construction. The current...

On Steel Connection Data Bank at Purdue University
The aim of the establishment of the steel beam-to-column connection data bank program at Purdue University in 1986 was to provide the necessary data base for the determination of the moment-rotation...

Moment Rotation Curves for Double Framing Angles
Moment-rotation curves for bolted framed steel connections are derived from force-deflection data obtained from laboratory tension and compression tests of angle segments. These derived...

Practical Analysis of Flexibly-Connected Building Frames
Modeling of flexible connection behavior as elastic-perfectly plastic is proposed for analysis of building frames, and results based on this idealization are compared with fully non-linear...

Comparison of the Third and Fourth Edition of the Guide: What is New and Different
The fourth edition of the 'Guide to Stability Design Criteria for Metal Structures' is a unique collection of ideas and information on stability problems. It...

Centrally Loaded Columns
The paper has given a detailed description of the chapter on centrally loaded columns that will appear in the 4th Edition of the Structural Stability Research Council 'Guide...

Beam-Columns
The Fourth Edition of the SSRC Guide presents a state-of-the-art information on beam-columns for use by specification writers, researchers, and designers. The present paper is an extremely...

Circular Tubes and Shells 4th Edition of SSRC Guide
The 3rd edition of the Guide was the first to have a chapter devoted to Cylindrical Tubes and Shells. Chapter 14 in the 4th edition is a major revision of Chapter 10 in the previous edition....

Frame Stability
The Chapter on Frame Stability of the Fourth Edition of the SSRC Guide provides guidance on use of several stability design procedures. These include Critical Load Concept, Second-Order...
