Abstract

In this paper, lateral-torsional buckling(LTB) strength of HSB800 high strength steel plate girder with monosymmetric section under uniform moment was evaluated by nonlinear analysis. The unbraced length in inelastic LTB range was considered for the sections whose smaller or larger flange is in compression with slender, noncompact and compact web. Analyses of SM490 steel girders were first performed with the single-panel and three-panel model to judge the validity of the constructed models by comparing those results with Eurocode 3, AASHTO and AISC codes. By using the same models, LTB strength of HSB800 girder was evaluated and it was found that the sections whose smaller flange is in compression with noncompact flange-slender/noncompact web could not reach the flexural strength of the design codes.
