Title: | Statistical evaluation of the new resistance model for steel plate girders subjected to patch loading |
Abstract: | This paper presents a new resistance model for steel plate girders subjected to patch loading. The model aims to correct the EN 1993-1-5 formulation concerning the resistance to transverse forces with the help of findings presented in several doctoral studies on this topic. In addition, a statistical calibration of the new model is addressed. This calibration includes a new proposal for the resistance function -. The proposal is conceived for fulfilling safety levels of the partial safety factor that match the current values included in EN 1993 for instability-related problems. These new proposals are in accordance with the design philosophy found in EN 1993-1-5 for the design of plated structures. |
