Corrugated web girders (CWGs), used for bridge construction, differ in important ways from conventional prismatic girders. Behavior and Design of Trapezoidally Corrugated Web Girders for Bridge Construction details the behavior and design of CWGs in bridge construction and includes unique research into high-strength steel. The title gives a comprehensive review of the last decade in CWG design. In-depth explanations of key concepts are given - such as the accordion effect - that differentiate these girders from more conventional flat-webbed girders, and the authors also present specialized research into tubular flanged girders. The book distinguishes between prismatic and tapered CWGs, explains failure modes under both shear and flexure, and gives clear figures to illustrate these modes. The volume compares international building codes and offers recommendations for future research. Seven chapters cover -- An introduction to CWGs for bridge construction; Development of bridges with corrugated webs; Real boundary conditions between flange and web; Shear buckling behavior; Flexural buckling behavior; Recent erection methods and; Future research.

Enables the reader to understand advances and future directions in the behavior and design of CWGs for bridge building Reviews advances in the behavior and design of CWGs Explains concepts which make these girders different from conventional flat-webbed girders Distinguishes between the behavior of prismatic and tapered CWGs Considers the failure modes of girders under shear and flexure, as well as ultimate strength Compares international codes - such as Eurocode 3 - in useful technical detail

Concrete-Filled Double-Skin Steel Tubular Columns: Behavior and Design provides a thorough review of the recent advances on the behaviour and design of concrete-filled double-skin steel tubular (CFDST) columns. Drawing on their extensive knowledge and research, the authors cover topics such as different CFDST columns under axial compression, innovative techniques including the use of rubberised concrete, columns with different cross-sections, and steel material envelops and failure modes. This book is an overview of research carried out by this highly experienced and leading research group with specialist knowledge in the topic. It is an invaluable resource for researchers, graduates and post-graduate civil engineers and civil engineering designers.

Provides a comprehensive overview of advances on the behaviour and design of concrete-filled double-skin steel tubular (CFDST) columns over the past decade Gives deep-dive explanation of important concepts such as the void ratio which makes these girders different from conventional concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns Explains the failure modes of short and slender columns under compression, with detailed illustrations and photos from both real-life and virtual tests performed by the authors Presents in-depth analysis of the ultimate strengths of CFDST columns with different steel envelops and concrete infills Makes a detailed comparison with available international codes, such as Eurocode 3, and provides recommendations for future studies Discusses new innovative confining stress-based design for different types of CFDST short columns
