Out-of-Plane Stability of Circular Steel Tubular Vierendeel Truss Arches Incorporating Torsional Effects of Chords

Torsional stiffnesses of chords contribute considerably to the sectional torsional stiffness of steel tubular Vierendeel truss arches and hence determine their out-of-plane buckling. To obtain a more accurate stability design for the Vierendeel truss arches, torsional effects of chords on their out-...
