Original Abstract

Members of double-symmetrical open cross-sections are widely used as columns in steel structures. In many cases columns are subjected not only to axial force but also local transverse force due to effect of beams connected to the columns. It results in compression in the column web that should be verified in the structural design. Current standard for design of joints in steel structures provides basic information for verification of this joint component. The design resistance of column web in compression is given as yielding resistance or, based on relative slenderness of the web, buckling resistance which takes into account buckling and crippling of the web that are considered using reduction factor. The complex behaviour of the column web in compression is affected by number of aspects, e.g. structural solution of the joint (bolted, welded, with or without end plate), level of normal stress resulting from axial force or possible interaction with shear. The paper focuses on selected aspects influencing the resistance of the column web in transverse compression and summarizes results of advanced geometrically and materially nonlinear numerical analysis which are compared with results determined using provisions in the standards. The numerical analysis was performed using computation system based on finite element method. As it is considered that the resistance of the column web in transverse compression is influenced also by the geometric properties of the cross-section including geometry of the flange-web transition, both rolled and welded cross-sections with various values of web slenderness were selected for the analysis. Along with evaluation of the results obtained in the frame of the study, suitability of different types of numerical models for investigation of this problem is discussed.
