Can you provide the size and span of the beam as well as the exact location of the load along the length (assuming it's at midspan right now)? I'm curious how this compares to AISC equations.
As an Engineer, i recommend you test beams for bilateral contortional buckling and collateral torsional flexure. These are not very well understood failure modes.
Thx, the bolts and welds jointing vierendeel floor trusses with the columns of WTC towers didn't fail because of excess loading ,softening from heat or linear expansion resulting from planestrike alone I hoped to see this test reac catastrophic failure
lol now i know that there's also plastic strain after lateral torsional buckling.. btw may i know: a. the steel profile size b. the distance between support c. the condition of support (confinement)
If you want detailed graphs then you can use a kit with digital force & displacement sensors (simultaneous) connected to a computer. These sensors normally come with software that plots the graphs.
This testing rig is comprised of moveable hydraulic jack (allow for the lateral shift) and support units with degrees of freedom to facilitate the lateral torsional buckling test.
@@IamDilakshana Using the conditions: - 330x160mm steel beam; - 6,2m - Force aplied 1,86m from nearest pin - Spring stiffness: 40430kNm/rad I found a Force limit of 160,89kN to buckle! Very close to your test! I'll try to make a video soon

Thanks. It was very hard to visualise this phenomenon prior to seeing your video. Keep up the good work.
Muthomi Munyua Glad you found it useful.
Thanks for showing it practically.
shivam sharan lall 👍🏻

what value of load have you taken as the critical buckling load?

I have a question.
Here, is I-Beam subjected to a positive bending moment?
lol now i know that there's also plastic strain after lateral torsional buckling..
btw may i know:
a. the steel profile size
b. the distance between support
c. the condition of support (confinement)
Support condition seems semi-rigid
How the graphs are get plotted in real time? Is it done by the apparatus it self?

Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!
Gave it a good, slow moosh!
From Brazil. What is the dimensions of this steel beam? W150x13.... W200x...
Hi - This is a 330x160mm steel beam
@@IamDilakshana Thanks very much. Please ...the length...
UZIAHH SOARES You’re welcome. Beam length is 6.2m.
@@IamDilakshana the load was applied on the beam with what distance from the pin? Is that pin holed on supports?
Marcos Ferreira Load is applied approximately 1.86m from the nearest support which is a spring with a spring stiffness of 40430kNm/rad.
Can someone tell me if vertical stiffeners would help in this case at all? Or do they help against local buckling only?
@@19Borneo67 thank you for a very detailed answer. You helped me with my question greatly.
Pls tell me the name of the apparatus used

Are u from sl?
Yes, I am.
Thank u so much
Most welcome.
I tried to replicate this test in the Software Ansys Mechanical, if someone want to know more about this, reply this coment! =)
Please share more. What are your findings? Can you extract a video from Ansys?

Just brace them.
I beam is not good
Box sec and C chanel BTB is good
