Synopsis : A series of static loading tests was conducted on large tubular structural models subjected to local lateral loads. The main objective was to estimate the collapse load and absorbed energy of steel tubular structures under collision loading. Some deformation models were established from the test results and, using these models, semi-empirical equations including two experimental constants to estimate the collapse load and absorbed energy are proposed. These equations can well explain the test results in the range of tested parameters for diameters of 350-500 mm and wall thickness of 9.5-12.7 mm. |
