Summary:This study evaluates the mechanical performance of composite girders with corrugated steel webs via finite element modeling in ABAQUS. Utilizing corrugated steel webs enhances structural efficiency and material economy. The research delves into shear-bending interactions, analyzing load capacity, deflection trends, and failure mechanisms. ABAQUS simulations provide insights for design optimization of these girders in engineering contexts. The findings advance understanding of composite girders with corrugated webs, fostering more effective and sustainable construction practices. The investigation focuses on using corrugated plates to bolster the shear zones in plate girders. theoretical analyses of girders with corrugated web plates demonstrate their shear zone reinforcement capabilities. Different thickness of trapezoidal corrugated steel webs in girder specimens (4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 mm) underwent two-point load testing to study the corrugation's interaction with the girders. Trapezoidal patterned corrugated web specimens against one control beam shows corrugation's significant impact on girder stability, enhancing ultimate load capacity and delaying buckling. A numerical analysis using confirmed the corrugated web's role in increasing buckling resistance.
