  1. 1. Reduced stress method for steel in class 4 cross-sections : Evaluation of the reduced stress method for a railway bridge

    University essay from KTH/Byggteknik och design

    Author : Therese Badrous; Ebba Lund; [2021]
    Keywords : FEM; Reduced stress method; Effective cross-section method; Local buckling; Steel cross-section; Class 4 cross-section; Railway bridge; FEM; Reducerad spänningsmetoden; Effektivt tvärsnittsmetoden; Lokal buckling; Ståltvärsnitt; Tvärsnittklass 4; Järnvägsbro;

    Abstract : The effective cross-section method, also called reduced cross-section method is generally used for steel in class 4 cross-sections in considering local buckling. This method is a bit complicated and time consuming, which often leads to engineers not using profiles in class 4 cross-sections. READ MORE

  2. 2. Design of slender steel members : A comparison between the reduced stress method and the effective width method

    University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

    Author : Oskar Skoglund; Daniel Samvin; [2016]
    Keywords : Steel structures; finite element method; reduced stress method; effective width method; nonlinear finite element method; Stålkonstruktion; finita element metoden; reducerad spänningsmetoden; effektiva bredd metoden; olinjär finita element analys;

    Abstract : As of now, the most common way in Sweden, to address the issue of local buckling of steelstructures is through the procedure called the effective width method. A less commonprocedure for dealing with local buckling is the reduced stress method. READ MORE
