Abstract
The ultimate strength of steel plates with longitudinal stiffeners of open or closed cross-section subjected to both longitudinal tension and transverse compression is experimentally investigated in this study. Four stiffened plate specimens on the scale of one-third, corresponding to that of the steel deck plate in an actual Nielsen Lohse bridge, were tested by using an experimental apparatus newly developed for this study. The test results verify a practical design method, which the authors developed for predicting the ultimate strength of stiffened plates subjected to biaxial in-plane forces.
