Experiments and theory on deck and girder crushing

摘要: Abstract This paper is concerned with theoretical and experimental analysis of deep plastic collapse a deck or girder subjected to an in-plane, concentrated load. A theory derived which valid until initiation fracture in the structure. The presented results show load–deflection curves modes deformation for decks, stringer decks thin-walled beams central excentric point loads between transverse frames. Based on experiments, various modelling aspects local/global failure are discussed. agreement closed form solutions good.
