Abstract

In this paper, the effects of the flange compactness on the behavior of steel beams with corrugated webs are experimentally and analytically studied. The experimental program consists of four simply supported beams with different web configurations (Flat or Corrugated) and different flange compactness (non-compact or compact). Nonlinear finite element technique was used to model the tested specimens and to carry out the parametric study. The variables of the parametric study were the thickness and the width of the flange transversal stiffeners (FTS), and the flange thickness (FT). The results obtained from the finite element were compared with the corresponding experimental ones that show a reasonable degree of accuracy. Finally, comparison between beams with corrugated webs and those with flat webs was carried to exhibit the advantages and disadvantages of using web corrugation. The results indicate that; the flange transversal stiffeners enhances the beam yield load by 21% and the flange thickness can increase the yield load by 56%, where if both of them are used (FTS and FT) the beam yield load can achieved 72% more than beam without these enhancement.
