Research Situation

Thin wall steel-concrete composite wall panels can be used as bearing member and also as maintenance structural plates, which can satisfy functional requirements of building including bearing capacity, heat insulation and preservation. The problem relating unilateral contact buckling of thin wall steel composite panels has received attention from many construction engineers. The investigation progress is analyzed in general and the investigation questions are illustrated. The research approach and technical routes of delaminated critical load are also presented.

Shear Fields

The response of a square plate, simply and unilaterally supported, to pressure loading is numerically treated. The support system consists of discrete elastic springs whose stiffnesses range from near-rigid to compliant character. It is found that, except for rather low support stiffnesses, the plate will lift off the foundation. After demonstrating good agreement with a recent analytical work, the deflections and shear fields are provided. The response mode changes dramatically as the supports approach rigidity.
