Thesis title: Design of Steel Structures Under Elasto-Plastic Theory

Problem Statement:
Steel structures are widely used in various engineering applications due to their high
strength, durability, and adaptability. Traditional design approaches often rely on
elastic analysis, which assumes that materials return to their original shape after the
removal of loads. However, this assumption is overly conservative for many practical
scenarios where steel members may undergo plastic deformation without structural
failure.

The elasto-plastic theory provides a more realistic representation of material


behavior by accounting for both elastic and plastic phases of deformation. This
approach enables engineers to optimize designs, reduce material usage, and improve
the overall efficiency of structures. Despite its advantages, the implementation of
elasto-plastic theory in structural design remains limited due to the complexity of
analysis, lack of standardized design codes, and challenges in accurately predicting
structural responses under various loading conditions.

This research addresses these gaps by focusing on the design of steel structures
using elasto-plastic theory. It seeks to develop methodologies and tools that
integrate elasto-plastic principles into structural design while ensuring safety, cost-
effectiveness, and compliance with engineering standards. The study aims to bridge
the gap between theoretical advancements and practical applications, contributing
to more efficient and sustainable design practices in steel construction.
