Want to expand your knowledge of hollow structural sections (HSS)? The Steel Tube Institute (STI) is presenting a series of webinars on a variety of HSS topics. We invite you to join our next webinar.
Yield-Line Analysis in Practice
December 15, 2021 11:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. CST
Note: This webinar was originally scheduled for July 14.
If you previously registered for this webinar for the July 14 date, we have your registration and you are automatically added for this December 15 webinar. You will receive your GoToWebinar login email soon.
One distinction that sets HSS connections apart from open section connections is weak axis bending of the HSS connecting face, leading us to the ever-intimidating yield-line analysis. Yield-line analysis has been widely used in the analysis and design of steel members and connections to determine their ultimate strength and resistance. During this webinar, we will discuss various basic theories dealing with yield lines. We'll also discuss how to adopt the basic yield line mechanism to solve complicated problems as well as an analysis of concentrated loads on HSS in tubular joints.
STI's HSS Connex web-based tool offers designers a simple way to check HSS wall thicknesses to aid in efficient HSS connection design. The tool performs limit state checks at HSS walls, which is great for determining whether reinforcing will be required. HSS Connex is available for HSS Professional Members, and STI is now offering a 30-day free trial to HSS Connex.
