Observations on the Behavior of Aluminum Alloy Test Girders
Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 112, Issue 1
Abstract
The results of an experimental investigation of the behavior of eight built-up test girders of a standard aluminum alloy are presented in this paper. Data on web-buckling characteristics, stress distribution, and ultimate girder strengths are included. The object of these tests was to show to what extent elastic buckling theory could be used to predict buckling phenomena and to provide some data on the relation between first buckling and ultimate load-carrying capacities in aluminum alloy structures of this type.
