Behaviour of Steel Shear Connections for Assessing Structural Vulnerability to Disproportionate Collapse
DownloadFall 2013
The performance of structures under the effects of extreme loads can be a critical consideration in their design. The potential for disproportionate collapse following localized damage to a column can be mitigated by the provision of sufficient strength and ductility throughout a structural...

Understanding the fracture behavior of pipeline steel is crucial for ensuring the integrity of pipelines in the energy transportation industry. This comprehensive thesis investigates the fracture toughness properties of API 5L AO Smith X52 pipe steel through a combination of experimental tests...

Fall 2015
Current design procedures for double-coped beams tend to be overly conservative and do not include considerations for axial load. The reduced strength and stability of the coped region increase the susceptibility of the connection to a local failure, and the complexity of the connection behaviour...
