Abstract:Many types of structures, or part of which, are directly under the exposure of the time-dependent variations of the temperature of air and solar radiation. Such thermal loads can vary the temperature of the different parts of the structural members causing undesired structural effects. In this research, an experimental study was conducted to investigate the influence of such thermal loads on composite beams. For this purpose, a concrete-encased-steel beam was instrumented with fifteen thermocouples and other s… Show more
