Abstract

When one of the following conditions is met, it is thought that the lateral torsional buckling of a flexural component is prevented and only the yield strength capacity of the flexural component is checked[1] at high temperatures

  • a rigid decking (reinforced concrete slab or steel plate) is connected to the compression flange of the flexural component;

  • the ratio of unsupported length l 1 of the compression flange of a simply supported beam to its width b 1 does not exceed the value given in Table 5.1.
