Cel
The objective of this project is to develop more reliable design rules for hollow section structures, because some of the present rules of Eurocode 3 seem to be unsafe and to extend the design rules of connections over high b/t ratios. Rules and practical guidelines for following technical design aspects will be developed: models for stress-strain properties, rotation capacity and limits for cross-section classification, reliable design rules and requirements for reliable welding of hollow sections connections, extension of the design rules in Eurocode 3 for welded connections for b/t>35. As a final result unified and practical guidelines will be developed. Hot-formed hollow sections will be used as a reference material.
