Axially Loaded Tension Members

5 DESIGN OF TENSION MEMBERS - steel-insdag.org

Since axially loaded tension members are subjected to uniform tensile stress, their load deformation behaviour (Fig.3) is similar to the corresponding basic material stress strain behaviour. Mild steel members (IS: 2062) exhibit an elastic range (a-b) ending at yielding (b). This is followed by yield plateau (b-c).

Technical Manual 1 Design of Monopole Bases

The AISC method for designing axially loaded base plates defines the critical section as being at .95 times the depth of the structural members for shapes of rectangular cross-section such as wide flanges and tubes. The critical section for pipe is defined at a location equal to .80 times the diameter of the pipe.

Design of Beams (Flexural Members) (Part 5 of AISC/LRFD)

The compressive flange of a beam behaves like an axially loaded column. Thus, in beams covering long spans the compression flange may tend to buckle. However, this tendency is resisted by the tensile flange to certain extent. The overall effect is a phenomenon known as lateral torsional buckling, in which the beam tends to twist and
