Thermal design reference for steel structures

Thermal design reference for steel structures

Thermal design reference for steel structures

(OP)
Hey,

Does anyone have any decent texts, papers or guidelines for designing HOTTTTT steel beams?  I'm talking 300-500 celsius and changes in temperature will be about the same magnitude.

Thanks

RE: Thermal design reference for steel structures

I once ported some steel at temperature stress-strain diagrams of one ENSIDESA (Empresa Nacional Siderúrgica) Handbook to Mathcad 2000; I think to remember it was based on european standards.

This should be enough for structural design, since valid till 600ºC; however I would be wary of additive plastic deformation on cycling loading without further examination of the question.
 

RE: Thermal design reference for steel structures

The Australian Steel Code (AS4100-1998) has got some information regarding the design of bare steel subject to elevated temperatures. It gives equation for the variation of yield stress and Young's modulus with temperature.

fy(T)=(905-T)/690*fy...for 215ºC<T<905ºC
E(T)=E*(1+T/(2000*ln(T/1100)))...for T<615ºC

Thanks guys, but I was looking for a more comprehensive guide if one exists.  Something that would cover everything from weld degradation, connection design, out of plane deflection/warping for beams due to thermal expansion etc.
