Abstract

Ongoing research on future hot-rolled asymmetric steel I-beams is highlighted. This study is currently under way at Texas A&M University, led by Dr. Matthew Yarnold, Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. Dr. Yarnold’s research interests include building structural systems, bridge infrastructure, hybrid building energy-structure performance, and engineering education. Dr. Yarnold has been recognized for his teaching and research with the Robert J. Dexter Memorial Award, ASCE Nashville Branch Engineering Educator of the Year, an AISC Early Career Faculty Award, and AISC’s Milek Fellowship. The four-year Milek Fellowship is supporting this research on the behavior of hot-rolled asymmetric I-beams. The research team is part way through year three of the four-year study. Selected results from a manufacturing study, full-scale experiments, and an initial sizing study are highlighted, along with a preview of future work.
