5 DESIGN OF TENSION MEMBERS - steel-insdag.org
www.steel-insdag.orgTension members are linear members in which axial forces act so as to elongate (stretch) the member. A rope, for example, is a tension member. Tension members carry loads most efficiently, since the entire cross section is subjected to uniform stress. Unlike compression members, they do not fail by buckling (see chapter on compression members).

www.egr.msu.eduCompression Members: Structural elements that are subjected to axial compressive forces only are called columns. Columns are subjected to axial loads thru the centroid. • • Stress: The stress in the column cross-section can be calculated as A P f = (2.1) where, f ...

Members fabricated from steel plating or sheeting and subjected to compressive stresses also experience local buckling of the plate elements. This chapter introduces buckling in the context of axially compressed struts and identifies the factors

Bolted connections, which resist moments and connections between structural members, will be covered in the next chapter. 2.0 BOLTED CONNECTIONS Connections can also be classified in the following ways: (a) Classification based on the type of resultant force transferred: The bolted connections

Full-scale and model testing was conducted to supplement test results previously obtained for the Delta vehicle. These tests served to verify the structural concept. It is important to note that studies have shown that the lowest structural cost

It is used in calculating the buckling moment resistance of laterally unsupported beams and torsional-flexural buckling of compression members in accordance with CSA Standard S16.1-94 (CSA 1994). For open cross sections, the general formula is given by Galambos (1968): ∑ ′ = 3 b t3 J [1]
