Abstract

Computational numerical models constructed to simulate the response of composite steel/concrete buildings were described, and the results were compared with findings from the tests undertaken on full-scale structures. Numerical simulations were undertaken using the nonlinear analysis program which was suitable for modelling the large displacement structural response. The program included elements which accounted for thermal effects and temperature-dependent nonlinear cyclic constitutive models for steel and concrete. It enabled representation of non-uniform temperature variations across the section and along the length of members.
