Influence of a Metal Beam of a Corrugated Wall Geometrical Parameters on Size and Nature of Internal Tension Distribution

Abstract

Nowadays a concept of a beam with a corrugated wall in construction mechanics does not exist. Such designs do and they are used in construction. Definition of the intense deformed condition of a beam with a corrugated wall is a relevant task. In this article the task of tension distribution nature assessment in the cross section of a beam in a corrugation height variation was discussed. The task was solved in the course of the numerical experiments with application of the finite element method (FEM). The problem was solved for beams with different shapes of the lines forming a corrugation. It was established that the geometrical form of a corrugation practically didn't influence the nature of tension distribution on a beam section and tension distribution on the cross section of beams with a corrugated wall depends generally on the corrugation height relation to its width.
