Local buckling failure
Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
15
Some basic knowledge when designing with structural steel
Structural steel members are made of thin elements These thin elements are slender, as a result causing local instabilities (known as local buckling in flange and web) even before achieving yield strength. As such, cross section classification is important to account for such local instabilities. Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh

Understanding failure modes
Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
18
Fundamental modes of failure in Universal Column under compression
Overall yielding in compression Overall buckling as a strut Local buckling in flange toes Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
19
Overall yielding in compression
Fundamental modes of failure in Universal Beam under compression (UB as column) Overall yielding in compression Overall buckling as a strut (about minor axis) Local buckling in flange toes and web Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
20
Fundamental modes of failure in Universal Beam under flexure (UB as beam)
Overall yielding in flexure Overall lateral / torsional buckling Local buckling in compression flange under high strains Local buckling in web UB in flexure behaves differently to UB in axial compression Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh

Section Classification
Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
22
What? CLASS 1 CLASS 2 CLASS 3 CLASS 4 Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
23
What does it mean? Think of plasticity Think of ductility
Think of rotational capacity in the whole section Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh

Why classify? What is the implication of different CLASS?
CLASS 1 PLASTIC – able to sustain high strain and achieve plastic moment capacity and full plastic hinge in the whole cross-section; no restrictions in normal design. CLASS 2 COMPACT – achieve plastic moment capacity but with limited plastic hinge; apply plastic modulus under bending for design; elastic analysis only. CLASS 3 SEMI-COMPACT – plastic capacity not achieved; only elastic capacity; apply elastic modulus for design. CLASS 4 SLENDER – local buckling failure appear even before yield strength is achieved; apply effective section properties. Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh

How? Table 5.2 EC3 What is the type of cross-section?
What kind of stress is the section subjected to? For UB, UC or built-up sections, classify each part separately (ie. Flange and web) Calculate e factor Choose worst classification as CLASS for the section. Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
31
Example – pure compression

3. Substitute ε into the class limits in Table 5.2
1. Determine fy fy = 355N/mm2 2. Determine ε 3. Substitute ε into the class limits in Table 5.2 Outstand flanges (Table 5.2, sheet 2): cf = (b – tw – 2r)/2 = mm cf / tf = / = 9ε = 7.29, 10ε = 8.10, 14ε = 11.34 Limit for Class 2 flange = 10 = > Hence flanges are Class 2 Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
33
Web – internal compression part (Table 5.2, sheet 1):
cw = h – 2tf – 2r = mm cw / tw = 200.3/ = 33ε = 26.73, 38ε = 30.78, 42ε = 34.02 Limit for Class 1 web = 33 = > , Hence web is Class 1 4. Therefore, overall cross-section classification is Class 2. Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
34
Cross-section compression resistance (clause 6.2.4):
Therefore, the design compression resistance of the cross-section is: Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
35
Classification under combined bending and axial force
Classify based on the actual stress distribution of the combined loadings. STEP 1 For simplicity, classify using most severe loading condition of pure axial compression. If the section classified as Class 1 or 2, no further works are needed. STEP 2 But if the resulting section classification is Class 3 or 4, it is advisable for economy to conduct a more precise classification under the combined loading. Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh

Comparison Separate load condition Combined load condition
Flange = CLASS 1 Web = CLASS 4 Overall = CLASS 4 Resisting capacity uses effective sectional area Flange = CLASS 1 Web = CLASS 2 Overall = CLASS 2 Resisting capacity uses whole sectional area MORE ECONOMICAL DESIGN Assoc Prof Dr DYeoh
