Stability behavior of single-angle members with new double-leg connection

Single-leg connections are commonly used for angle members in lattice structures due to their constructability. However, this connection type results in significant eccentricity and compromises member stability. To optimize the load-transfer mechanism of angle members, this study...

Study on Stability of Equal-Leg Angle-Steel Members in Transmission Towers at Uniform Elevated Temperature

Equal-leg angle-steel members are widely used as main load-bearing and bracing members in transmission towers. Under elevated-temperature environments such as mountain fires and forest fires, the elastic modulus and strength of steel degrade significantly, which may reduce the ov...
