Issues related to safety requirements for steel elements subjected to different stress resultants in reference to limit states design philosophy according to Structural Eurocodes PN-EN and national codes PN-B are dealt with in the paper. The calibration of partial cross-section resistance factors is discussed on the basis of elements of steel floor structures where the permanent load component and the live load component of variable actions are the only components of load combinations. Final conclusions for their practical application in the codification process are formulated and values of partial factors for cross section resistance are proposed.

Lateral Deflections

Partial joint penetration groove welds may be used in columns, for example, when it is not necessary to develop the full tensile capacity of the cross section. Also, where it is not feasible to make a full joint penetration groove weld because welding can be done from one side only, the strength of a partial joint penetration groove weld may be adequate. Limited experimental data have shown that the strength of partial penetration welds are proportional to their areas.A series of 75 tests on 25 mm thick, grade 300W and grade 350A steel plates, with welds made with matching electrodes and with 20–100% penetration, were conducted. The overall behaviour, the effects of percent penetration, plate strength, and the eccentricity of the load were investigated. The inherent ductility of the welds allows lateral deflections and straining to take place so that eccentrically loaded welds are as strong as concentrically loaded welds. The strength of welds is greater than the strength of the plate multiplied by the percent penetration and increases with the increasing lateral restraint that occurs with decreasing penetration. Design equations and resistance factors, based on weld strengths at least equal to the percent penetration multiplied by the ultimate tensile resistance of the plate, are proposed. Recommendations for fabrication are presented. Key words: behaviour, groove weld, limit states, partial joint penetration, strength, resistance factor, tension, ultimate.

Design Resistance

Data from 30 tests conducted on laterally unsupported steel beams, and 148 tests on biaxially loaded steel beam columns conducted by others are statistically analyzed to determine resistance factors appropriate for use with the design equations given in CSA Standard CAN3-S16.1-M84 (Steel structures for buildings—limit states design). The general value of 0.90 currently given in that standard for the resistance factor is shown to be conservative by 1 –6% for both laterally unsupported beams and biaxially loaded beam columns.

Quantitative Chemical

In electron energy loss spectroscopy, quantitative chemical microanalysis is performed by comparison of the intensity under a specific inner shell edge with the corresponding partial cross section. There are two commonly used models for calculations of atomic partial cross sections, the hydrogenic model and the Hartree-Slater model. Partial cross sections could also be measured from standards of known compositions. These partial cross sections are complicated by variations in the edge shapes, such as the near edge structure (ELNES) and extended fine structures (ELEXFS). The role of these solid state effects in the partial cross sections, and the transferability of the partial cross sections from material to material, has yet to be fully explored. In this work, we consider the oxygen K edge in several oxides as oxygen is present in many materials. Since the energy window of interest is in the range of 20-100 eV, we limit ourselves to the near edge structures.

Anisotropic Creep

A series of finite element anisotropic creep analyses of a Bridgman notch specimen have been performed. The anisotropic creep analysis is based on Hill's anisotropic yield model and the Norton creep law. An anisotropic parameter, p, is defined in order to quantify the degree of bulk material anisotropy which exists in a weld metal. The effects of p and the Norton stress exponent, n, on the stationary-state stresses, at the minimum cross-section of the notch, are presented. The material constants were chosen to include the practical range for engineering materials. Indications of the practical application of anisotropic analyses to welds are given.

Composite Reinforcement

The article presents information about the changes made to the code of rules for the design of concrete structures reinforced with polymer composite reinforcement. New rules for the formation of relative deformations at the base point of a two-line diagram of concrete under axial tension, used to calculate reinforced concrete elements for the second group of limit states, are described. The rules for calculating re-reinforced structures of T-or I-beam cross-sections with a shelf in a compressed zone by the method of limiting forces are presented. The rules for taking into account the inelastic properties of concrete of the stretched zone when determining the elastic- plastic moment of resistance for the extreme stretched fibre of concrete with a rectangular cross-section and a T-shape with a shelf located in the compressed zone are clarified.

Collapse Behavior

The paper describes a methodology of computing the ultimate value of the longitudinal bending moment at any cross section of a ship or box girder. The cross section has been discretized into stiffened panels (one stiffener with its associated effective plating). The limit states for these panels, both tensile and compressive, are modeled in an appropriate manner. Since the ultimate strength of the girder section is largely governed by the behavior of the panels under compression, the authors have paid special attention in modeling the collapse as well as post-collapse behavior of these panels. A new stress-strain relationship is also introduced. The complete procedure has been coded into a FORTRAN program and tested against a number of box girder models and an actual ship for which the true behavior was known. The results obtained from the proposed program appear to be quite satisfactory. Good correlation was also found when compared with the results obtained by more complex and rigorous analytical methods.

Bound Theorem

The limit state of torsion of ship hulls with large hatch openings is studied. A method to determine the distribution of the plastic shear flow on the hull cross section in the limit state by using the lower-bound theorem is presented together with the corresponding linear programming problem. The limit torsional moment of the hull cross section is obtained based on the distribution of the shear stress in the limit state. Three example limit states for typical containerships of different sizes with large hatch openings are calculated. The calculated limit torsional moments are compared with the design values of wave torque calculated by using the equations given by main classification societies in their rules. A rough estimate of the safety margin is obtained. The results show that for large containerships, it is necessary to pay attention to the safety with respect to torsion. The present method can serve as an effective tool in structural reliability analysis of ships with large hatch openings when the failure mode of torsion is taken into account.
