Abstract:PurposeIn this study, the effects of strain rate on the bending strength of full-scale wide-flange steel beams have been examined at elevated temperatures. Both full-scale loaded heating tests under steady-state conditions and in-plane numerical analysis using a beam element have been employed.Design/methodology/approachThe load–deformation relationships in 385 N/mm2-class steel beam specimens was examined using steady-state tests at two loading rate values (0.05 and 1.00 kN/s) and at two constant member tempe… Show more
