Parametric Study of Girders with Sinusoidal Corrugated Web.

Recently, steel girders with sinusoidal corrugations have become increasingly popular compared to those with traditional flat webs. This paper presents the second part of the research on the application of corrugated plates with different sinusoidal profiles as webs in girders. Parametric studies have been carried out in both linear and nonlinear domains, based on a representative numerical model developed and validated by experimental results.

Influence of Corrugated Web Geometry on Mechanical Properties of I-Beam: Laboratory Tests.

This paper presents the results of experimental investigations performed on beams with corrugated webs. The aim of the research was to determine the effect of the geometric parameters of the sinusoidal web on the behavior of I-beams subjected to four-point bending. Special attention was paid to the effects of web thickness and wave geometry on the deflection of beams.

Finite Element Analysis of the Stability of a Sinusoidal Web in Steel and Composite Steel‑Concrete Girders.

This paper presents the results of numerical investigations into the behavior of a sinusoidal web loaded in shear due to buckling in the period from the onset of buckling until failure, as well as the impact of a reinforced concrete slab on the stability of the web. The analysis concerned steel girders and composite girders with the top flange bonded to a reinforced concrete slab. Nonlinear analyses were performed using the finite element method.

Experimental Investigation of Impact Concrete Slab on the Bending Behavior of Composite Bridge Girders with Sinusoidal Steel Web.

Until recently, steel plate girders with corrugated steel members were used primarily as poles and girders in the construction of industrial buildings. Currently, they are also being used in the construction of bridges. Compared to traditional steel and rolled girders, steel plate girders weigh less and are more stiff, while also having a neater appearance.
