Am Fuße des Brockens, dem höchsten Berg des Harzes und ganz Norddeutschlands gelegen, fügt sich die offene Überdachung in die vorhandene Topologie nahtlos ein. Das unter Denkmalschutz stehende Natureisstadion, mit seinen bestehenden Natursteinterrassen und einem Schiedsrichterturm aus Holz, wurde baulich so konzipiert, dass die Arena in den Wintermonaten als überdachte Kunsteisbahn und im Sommer als Fläche für Konzerte, Aufführungen und Sportveranstaltungen genutzt werden kann. Eine ganz besondere Herausforderung war die Herstellung und Montage des circa 190m langen geschweißten Stahlrandträgers. Der Hohlkasten besteht aus vier doppelt gekrümmten Blechen und lagert an lediglich zwei Fußpunkten auf. Der zweite Teil des Beitrags befasst sich mit Schweißeigenspannungen an einem ausgewählten Querschnitt der Überdachung.

Durch die Wärmewirkung des Schweißens entstehen sowohl sehr große Verformungen als auch signifikante Zug und Druckspannungen. Der strukturelle und geometrische Imperfektionsgrad wird somit maßgeblich von der Anzahl und der Lage der Schweißnähte sowie den Schweißparametern bestimmt. Für die Berücksichtigung in Traglastberechnungen ist ein physikalisch fundiertes Modell erforderlich, welches die Schweißimperfektionen schnell und präzise berechnet. Das gekoppelte analytisch numerische Hybridmodell erfüllt diese Kriterien. Die mathematischen Grundlagen des analytischen Modells sowie die Kopplung mit der numerischen Finite-Elemente-Berechnung werden eingangs vorgestellt und die Anwendung zur Berechnung von Verzügen an einer Schiffsektion demonstriert. Darauffolgend wird das Hybridmodell an einer eben und einer gekrümmten versteiften Platte zur Berechnung der Schweißimperfektionen angewendet. Anschließende Traglastberechnungen sowie der Vergleich mit den Ergebnissen unter der Annahme einer geometrischen Ersatzimperfektion in Form des kritischsten Eigenwerts gibt Auskunft darüber, welches Potenzial die realitätsnahe direkte Berücksichtigung von Schweißimperfektionen birgt.

This study described the randomness of material properties through two different ways. These two proposed simulation methods, which are an extension and supplement to traditional simulation methods, can effectively simulate the statistical size effect for the tensile and flexural components in steel structures. The test results show that the variations of the yield and tensile strength increase with the decreasing specimen volume. Besides, the structural component strength is not only related to the specimen volume, but also the stress distribution. It is found by studying the influence of statistical size effect on structural reliability that the strength, which is obtained by small specimens through statistical analysis in the laboratory, is no more accurately applicable to large construction. The core idea is that the stochastic material proper-ties are directly embedded in mechanical calculations to develop a more accurate and economical design method for steel structure.

Geometrical nonlinearities as well as the nonlinear material behavior are considered within the calculation. To simplify, both types of imperfections, geometrical and structural ones, are mostly combined in these strength calculations being considered as equivalent geometrical imperfections. Values for standard cases are included in EN 1993-1-5 in case of plated structures or 1-6 in case of shells. A second possibility is the separate definition of fabrication tolerances and residual stresses, as far as they are known. With increasing complexity of the structure, less information are however available on geometrical and particularly structural imperfections. Nevertheless, by means of a more realistic consideration of these values, the actual ultimate load can be determined significantly more exactly and the performance of high performance steel structures is increased. In the investigated cases, deformations and stresses arise mainly due to welding. Therefore, the topic of this article is the application of an analytical numerical hybrid model for predicting imperfections induced by welds. This is presented on an example of a stiffened steel structure and a subsequent ultimate load calculation. At the beginning the analytical model, its physical basis as well as the physical interrelationships are introduced and explained. This is followed by the explanation of the coupling procedure between the analytical model and the numerical calculation for the calculation of weld-induced deformations and residual stresses. The significance of the hybrid model is proven by means of a few sample applications. For a realistic determination of the weld imperfections in the investigated stiffened structure, the coupled hybrid model is used afterwards. An ultimate load analysis gives information about the load carrying behavior under axial loading. The results are compared with the results of an ultimate load analysis from a literature example assuming different eigenvalues with different scaling. The results underline the potential additional utilization of load bearing capacity by this new approach.

The chain of bundle model is developed, which is based on a stochastic material model by Weibull and lognormal distribution. Furthermore, this model is embedded into the finite element method (FEM) software for the analysis of a complicated structure with a stress gradient. In order to determine the stochastic material model parameters, uniaxial tensile tests were carried out based on specimens using the same steel with different sizes. By comparing the experimental and simulation results, the material parameters could be analyzed based on the relationship between the specimen sizes and strength. Moreover, the 3-point and 4-point bending tests were performed and simulated with the developed model. The experimental and simulation results demonstrate that the SSE also exists in the flexural member, and the equivalent yield stress is closely related to the stress distribution and volume of the structure component.

The three-dimensional random field theory is applied to simulate the uncertainty of a nonlinear material. The proposed approach, which combines the discrete random field describing the randomness of the material properties via Monte Carlo simulations, is used for computing the bearing capacity variability of the steel structures. In addition, the mapping interpolation method makes it possible to separate the random field mesh and FE model mesh. The three-dimensional random field for the material properties is established according to the yield strength with a lognormal distribution based on reasonable assumptions, and the corresponding random field parameters are studied. Finally, the results of experimental investigation and simulations are compared based on the tensile and bending tests, and they indicate that the statistical size effect cannot be overlooked in S235JR steel structural elements and that the use of stochastic FE in the analysis of the statistical size effect has tremendous potential.

It is well-known that, due to the differences in manufacturing procedures, the residual stresses for welded and hot – rolled members are rather different. In the same way, despite several studies on residual stresses distribution and magnitude for hot-rolled members were already done, for prismatic and tapered welded I section steel members the investigation is still very scarce. In the current work, an experimental programme on the buckling resistance of tapered members, with different tapering ratios and section heights, was conducted and residual stress measurements were carried out using the sectioning method. Numerical simulations of the heat input during welding were also performed in order to predict the residual stress fields. A statistical analysis of the residual stresses distribution for welded I section members was performed, using the experimental and numerical results, as well as literature data. Systematized information on residual stresses distribution and magnitude was generated and some guidelines for the statistical characterization of residual stresses in welded members were proposed.

The approach bases on an integration of analytical and numerical calculation’s procedures in a hybrid model, realized with the aid of the inherent strain concept. The analytical procedure calculates the shrinkage strain components and area of the plastic deformed zone, caused by welding. The calculated strains are then transferred to the global finite element model in order to predict the distortions and stresses in the structure after every welding stage, as well as their final state. The consideration of welding scenarios, weld sequence, clamping conditions and the assembling stages is done by taking into account the intermediate variation of the strain state during the manufacturing steps. The article gives the theoretical basis of the analytical model. The consideration of the essential physical relations is put into discussion. The application of the model is illustrated on complex structures. Its reliability and practicability are demonstrated by means of a validation study.

Sandwich panel joints are playing an important role since they not only connect sandwiches to a bearing structure, but also play a key role in stabilization of the whole building. This paper presents an investigation of a sandwich panel behavior. The sandwich panel consist of two steel layers and PIR core between them and is connected to a HEA 160 flange with the help of a screw. Using ABAQUS software, this connection is modelled and deformation fields with temperature distribution area are analyzed. The modelling process includes many stages associated with each other: static, heat transfer and sequential analysis that includes both previous analyses.

Such sheets find a range of application in automotive and aerospace industry. The question is: Can we use those sheets also for building applications? Therefore their behaviour under external loads has to be studied. As an example beams with C-section made of structured sheets under concentrated force in the middle of the upper flange are investigated. This article provides information about load capacity of beams, assembled from structured plates with different thickness. Using Abaqus software beams were modelled and deformation fields for each of them were analyzed. To compare computer calculations with actual results, real sized beams made of structured sheets were constructed in laboratory and bending tests were conducted.
