Abstract
The extensive use of thin-walled steel structural systems in the building and construction industry is mostly indebted for their high strength to weight ratio attributes and remarkable fabrication versatility. Corrugated plates which falls in this category, also have a wide range of application in various engineering fields. They are lightweight, economical, and have much higher load carrying capacities than flat plates. The corrugation shape provides continuous stiffening which permits the use of thinner plates. Fabrication costs for elements with corrugated panels are normally lower. A corrugated column is a hollow column constructed by welding together four corrugated panels. Multi Cellular Corrugated Steel Column (MCCSC) is a kind of hollow column where Multi Cellular stiffeners are provided inside hollow column. Three different types of Single Skin Corrugated (SSC) columns with different stiffener configurations (diamond, plus and cross shapes) were chosen. Stiffeners increases the load carrying capacity as well as the buckling capacity of the column. Double Skin Corrugated (DSC) columns with square and circular core at the center to which stiffeners are welded is also developed. In this paper the behavior of MCCSC subjected to axial and eccentric loading is studied using ANSYS Workbench 16.1 software and it was found that column with diamond shaped stiffener showed best performance in both SSC and DSC columns.
