Economic Evaluation of High-Strength Steel for Structural Member Types in Building Structures

Abstract

The structural steel produced in domestic is classified into 5 grades. For economic structural design, the structural engineers need to choose optimal steel grades for structural member types, but the related data is not sufficient. Recently, high strength steel with yield strength in 650MPa was developed in domestic. It provides structural engineers with the wider range of structural steel strength, which leads to the larger difference in economic evaluation. In this paper, the economic evaluation of high-strength steel in building structures is investigated, by applying structural steel with 235MPa, 325MPa and 650MPa in yield strength to various types of structural members, and can be used as basic data for economic structural design.
