Strength and Stiffness of Weak-Axis Moment End-Plate Connections
… to investigate the strength and stiffness of weak-axis moment end-plate connections. Each test consisted of two girders connected to a column web with four-bolt extended moment end-plates. Two tests were conducted with bare steel. One test included a composite concrete slab that confined the …

Lifting Analysis of Precast Prestressed Concrete Beams
… the beam, the internal forces and moments, the weak-axis and strong-axis deflections, and the cross-sectional angle of twist. Finite element simulations are performed to investigate the behavior of concrete beams during lifting and to validate the proposed method. Additionally, a statistical …

Development of performance sections for cold-formed steel residential construction
… Specified Lateral Load Tables</i>, the <i>Strong Axis Axial Load Capacity Charts</i>, and the <i>Weak Axis and Torsional Axial Load Capacity Charts</i> were developed. The typical design aids for roof/floor joists include the <i>Uniform Load Capacity Tables</i> for single and two continuous spans, …

The Effectiveness of Seismically Designed Steel Framing Systems Subjected to Blast Loading
… beams of the first four stories by 420% in the weak axis and 100% in the strong axis and 50% in both axes of the columns on the structural face closest to the blast source in the seismically designed moment resisting frame, member failure could be avoided. The modifications increase the material …

Bending and Shear Behavior of Pultruded Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite Beams With Closed and Open Sections
… modifications to equations for calculating the weak axis moment of inertia, torsional warping constant, and torsion constant for open sections, as well as recognizing the influence of the shear lag phenomenon, the critical LTB load is predicted within +/-15.2% of experimental data for all …

Performance of C-Shaped structural concrete walls subjected to bi-directional loading
… as a function of drift level for strong axis and weak axis loading.

Illinois integral abutment bridges: behavior under extreme thermal loading and design recommendations
… in skewed bridges because it permits excessive weak-axis bending. Revising the standard H-pile orientation to align all H-pile webs parallel to the longitudinal axis of the bridge, regardless of skew, would substantially reduce weak-axis bending. As a result, lighter H-pile sections and/or …
