Lateral torsional buckling in steel & composite beams

Objectif

Lateral torsion buckling is a complex instability phenomenon that is likely to occur in members subject to predominant bending about the strong axis of their cross-section. Though this phenomenon is likely to occur once the constructions are completed, it is mostly of paramount importance during the erection phases. At present, design of steel and composite structures for lateral torsion buckling is far from being satisfactory. It is of major importance to improve the knowledge in the field and provide the designer with easy-to-use rules. The research aims at improving the check of lateral torsional buckling compared to existing standards. This improvement would increase competitiveness of steel and composite structures. Exploiting the available results with a view of establishing easy and simple design rules will attain this goal.
