Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the theory of tangent modulus and its application in determining the strength of steel columns in tests. By examining the semielastic action of a material when subjected to excessive stress, the author offers a method for estimating column strength that challenges the previously held views of engineers. Expanding on the work of Engesser, the author presents a series of stress-strain data from column tests, leading to the development of so-called "stress-modulus curves." These curves provide a new perspective on the behavior of columns under load, revealing the gradual departure from the straight-line relationship assumed in traditional elastic analysis. The author's insights and proposed formula challenge the conventional wisdom of column strength prediction and offer a more accurate approach that considers the material's characteristics under varying stress conditions.
