Eurocode 3 (EC3) states that the shear design resistance of a plate girder is given by the sum of the web resistance and the flanges contribution, being these calculated separately. The accuracy of these provisions is normally assessed by comparison with the results of numerical simulations using numerical models duly validated with experimental tests. However, the web resistance alone cannot be directly...
The purpose of the current study is to analyse the behaviour of steel plate girders with rigid and non-rigid end posts subjected to elevated temperatures, with the aim of assessing the interaction between shear and bending in case of fire. The intentional low stiffness of the flanges may precipitate the failure of these plate girders, making the interaction between shear and bending an important phenomenon...
