A new methodology is presented for the ultimate strength and moment–curvature analysis of
arbitrary composite sections under biaxial bending and axial load. The definition of section …

The main aim of this paper is to present results of a full-scale pushover test of a 40 meter
telecommunication tower under breaking load. A detailed description of the studied tower …

Practical single angle members are mostly subjected to eccentric forces due to the end
connections to their legs. Plastic Class 1 and compact Class 2 angle cross-sections are …

The damage in elements of the steel structures is highly possible due to the corrosion,
sudden loads or tearing rupture. The damage clearly affects the load capacity and …

An efficient linear elastic iterative method is proposed for the stability ultimate capacity of
equal-leg angle towers, using an elastic modulus adjustment strategy in this paper. The …

Angles profiles have been used since the very beginning of steel construction due to their
easy transportation and on-site erection. However, they exhibit specific features that clearly …

A homogeneous generalized yield criterion (HGYC) expressed by piecewise polynomial is
given for angle section. The element bearing ratio (EBR), reference EBR, and uniformity of …

Damage occurring to steel element structures is highly possible due to tearing ruptures,
corrosion, or the adoption of sudden loads. The damage has a great effect on their capacity …

To fully harness the design development potential of plastic angle sections, this study
employs a theoretical analysis approach to examine the plastic behavior of equal angle …

This paper examined the behavior of large-size and high-strength steel angle (LHS)
members under eccentric load to determine their mechanical performance. The …
