Abstract Steel I-section members subjected to compression a monoaxial bending about the major axis are dealt with in this paper. The current Eurocode’s design procedure of such members is based on a set of two interpolation equations. In this paper a simple and yet consistent Ayrton-Perry methodology is presented that for beam-columns yields the Ayrton-Perry design strategy similar to that utilized in the steel Eurocodes for design of beams and columns but not used so far for the beam-column design. The results from developed design criterion are compared with those of Method 1 of Eurocode 3 and the Ayrton-Perry formulation of a different format that has been recently published.

Different aspects of Eurocode 3 General Method (GM) approaches are discussed in this paper. The purpose of present study is to improve the application of GM approach for both beam-columns without intermediate lateral-torsional restraints and with these restraints. The results from the proposed GM are compared with those from Eurocode 3-1-1 interaction equations according to Method 1 and Method 2. A better consistency between the developed GM approach and the Eurocode's interaction equation approach than Eurocode 3 GM approach is observed.

In this paper the study on lateral flexural-torsional buckling of steel sigma-cross-section beams with web holes will be presented. The analysis of corresponding stability problem is based on general approach derived for a group of beams including at least mono-symmetric sections loaded transversally to their plane of symmetry. The effective flexural and torsional stiffness of steel beams with holes has been verified by tests. The results of theoretical analysis were compared with specification design procedure and also with actual behaviour of set of beams investigated by experiments. The study conclusions aim to become the background of the supplements to specified provisions for the design of steel structures.

This paper uses both a virtual work approach and a static equilibrium approach to study the elastic flexural-torsional buckling of circular arches under uniform bending, or under uniform compression. In most studies of the elastic flexural-torsional buckling of arches under uniform compression produced by uniformly-distributed radial loads, the directions of the radial loads are conventionally assumed not to change but to remain parallel to their initial directions during buckling. In practice, the uniform compression may be produced by hydrostatic loads or by uniformly-distributed radial loads that are directed to a specific point during buckling. In addition, there are discrepancies between existing solutions for the elastic flexural-torsional buckling moment and load of arches under uniform bending or under uniform compression which need to be clarified. Closed form solutions for the buckling moment and load are developed. The discrepancies among the existing solutions for the elastic flexural-torsional buckling moment and load of arches are clarified and the sources for the discrepancies are identified. It is found that the lateral components of hydrostatic loads and of uniformly-distributed radial loads that are always directed toward the center of the arch increase the flexural-torsional buckling resistance of an arch under uniform compression. It is also found that first-order buckling deformations are sufficient for static equilibrium approaches for the flexural-torsional buckling analysis of arches. The rational static equilibrium approach for the flexural-torsional buckling in the present study is effective.
