Study on T-Section Aluminium Beam-Columns with Web in Compression

Article Preview

Abstract:

Parameter analysis based on finite element methods was executed to study the in-plane stability capacity of extruded T-section aluminium beam-columns with the tip of the web in bigger compression. The analysis methods considered the effects of material nonlinearity, geometrical nonlinearity, and initial imperfection. The comparisons of calculate results of three kinds of T-sections of weak hardening alloy and strong hardening alloy between GB 50429, proposed formula and numerical methods were executed. And the analytical results show that GB 50429 is safe and suitable, and the modification formula based on GB 50429 is also safe enough and more exact than the former.
