Experimental and finite element study on the inelastic lateral buckling behavior of coped I-beams

An experimental study of inelastic lateral torsional buckling of coped beams with simply supported ends is presented in this paper. Six full scale coped steel I-beam tests were conducted. The test parameters include the aspect ratio of cope length to beam depth at coped region as well as the ratio o...
