Abstract
AbstractThe column web panel is a fundamental component of beam‐column joints. This component has been thoroughly studied and codified in the past. In this paper, new insight on its behaviour is obtained using a large amount of high‐quality Finite Element (FE) models, covering a wide range of panel slenderness and aspect ratios. The study shows that the existing models in part 1‐8 of the current and forthcoming Eurocode 3 present a wide scatter in terms of resistance and stiffness, being unconservative in some specific cases.
