Response of Wide Flange Steel Columns Subjected to Constant Axial Load and Lateral Blast Load

The response of wide flange steel columns subjected to constant axial loads and lateral blast loads was examined. The finite element program ABAQUS was used to model W8x40 sections with different slendernesses and boundary conditions. For the response calculations, a constant axial force was first...
