Behavior of Hot-Rolled Asymmetric Steel I-Beams

by

Matthew Yarnold, Ph.D.¹

¹Associate Professor and Director of the Advanced Structural Engineering Lab Civil and Environmental Engineering, Auburn University

Summary:

The American Institute of Steel Construction has set an ambitious goal to increase the speed of designing, fabricating, and erecting steel structures by 50%. The presented study focuses on improving the speed and efficiency of residential building floor systems. Hot-rolled asymmetric steel I-Beams, or "A-shapes," are being developed through numerical modeling and large-scale structural testing. The proportions of these future A-shapes must satisfy manufacturing needs, construction demands, and inservice loading. The long-term goal is to have a set of standard A-shapes that are regularly produced and utilized in steel building construction.

Bio-note:

Matthew Yarnold, PhD has nearly 20 years of structural engineering research and design experience. For the previous five years, he was faculty at Texas A&M University. Recently, he joined Auburn University as an Associate Professor and the Director of the new Advanced Structural Engineering Laboratory. Dr. Yarnold's research interests focus on our nation's infrastructure and the built environment.
