beam column |

beam column [′bēm ‚käl·əm] (civil engineering) A structural member subjected simultaneously to axial load and bending moments produced by lateral forces or eccentricity of the longitudinal load. Beam column A structural member that is subjected to axial compression and transverse bending at the same time. A beam column differs from a column only by the presence of the eccentricity of the load application, end moment, or transverse load. Beam columns are found in frame-type structures where the columns are subjected to other than pure concentric axial loads and axial deformations, and where the beams are subjected to axial loads in addition to transverse loads and flexural deformations.

This volume describes fundamentals and two-dimensional beam column problems in order to provide upper-level undergraduates and more advanced readers with an understanding of the in-plane behavior and strength of column stability problems. It combines a focused ion beam column and an environmental scanning electron microscope (SEM). A Three-Dimensional Displacement-Based Co-Rotational Beam-Column Finite Element for Distributed Plasticity Analysis of Frame Structures" - The approach proposed focuses on beam columns with open-walled doubly-symmetric I-shaped cross sections. |
