2. Flexural Buckling of High-Strength Steel Columns
Abstract : The European standards dealing with design rules and recommendations for steel structures have been under revision in the past years due to the increased use of high-strength steels. High-strength steels popularity increased at a steady pace in the last decades since they allow for more light-weighted solutions than conventional steels. READ MORE

5. Composite Columns of Hollow Steel Sections Filled with High Strength Concrete
Abstract : In the design of buildings today, great effort is made to increase the structural flexibility. This has resulted in a demand for columns with reduced cross sections. To achieve a high load bearing capacity with a small cross sectional area, it is worthwhile to study the possibility of utilizing high strength concrete and composite effects. READ MORE
