Abstract:Steel braces are widely used to stabilize steel structures forming horizontal or vertical truss structures; however, their relatively poor buckling behaviour is often lead to overdesigned structures. Induction Heat (IH) treatment technology is a novel contactless material transformation process to effectively strengthen local areas of steel sections. Utilizing IH to increase the strength of the middle length of steel brace sections, buckling behaviour can be improved. The present study experimentally investiga… Show more
