This paper deals with the axial and lateral load performance of web tapered sectional steel columns. Different type of tapered steel column sections studied are I section, C section and Box section. For each column section, taper is provided in two shapes (i.e. L shape and V shape). The column is axially loaded and the weight of the column for every section is kept constant. The study were proposed to compare and fix the tapered column with best taper ratio. Double tapered column is modeled and analysed using column with best taper ratio. Web tapered and double tapered steel column frame is analysed to determine the lateral load performance. The axial and lateral load behavior of tapered column sections is analysed and developed a finite element model using the software ANSYS 16.1. The result is analysed to determine the buckling behavior and lateral load performance of tapered column section. |
