For China steel structures, is it difficult for everyone to imagine that they will fail due to the strength of the building material itself.However, what SAFS steel structure wants to say is that there are many ways to make the steel structure fail. The different ways of failure of Chinese steel structure engineering are as follows:
SAFS Steel Structures has found that most failures in steel structures are due to connection problems, and structural engineers have to put a lot of thought and detail into designing joints and connections to ensure they are strong enough. The process of calculating the strength of joints and connections is tedious, it is important that structural engineers and construction professionals stay on the same page, any form of miscommunication of bolts or other materials used can lead to insufficient strength and possible failure.
Tensile failure is another possible failure to speak of in SAFS steel structures, it takes a lot of effort to cause this type of failure and, in most cases, only happens when structural engineers make mistakes during the design process. Tension failure is considered the most dangerous type of failure. Therefore, every structural engineer takes it very seriously during the design stage.
SAFS Steel Structures reminds that beams can also fail in steel structures. This usually happens when the beam weighs more than it can handle. Lateral-torsional buckling is a major concern for every structural engineering firm as it involves predicting where the greatest weight will be placed on the beam. The strongest point of the beam is at the center of the beam, so if the weight at the ends of the beam is too much to handle, buckling can occur and cause the beam to fail.
