Buckling Analysis of Corrugated Plate Girders

Abstract

Plate girders became popular in the late 1800’s when they were used in the construction of railroad bridges. Steel plate girders were introduced into construction as a cost effective alternative to rolled girder for large spans. The corrugated girder is a widely used structural element in many fields of application because of its numerous favourable properties. To increase the shear capacity of web of large steel plate girders, the web with different patterns such as tapered web, haunches, corrugations of different shapes are used. Present report deals with the determination of buckling strength of a plate girder considering rectangular and triangular corrugated web plates. The finite element analysis of a plate girder is carried out using ANSYS 15. The results obtained from analysis are then compared with the plate girder with plane web of uniform depth. Various parameters like buckling strength and weight are compared. It is concluded that the corrugated web plate has high buckling strength than plate girder with plane web.
