Compressive Strength of Ship Hull Girders: Part II, Stiffened Plates

Abstract

This is Part II of a two-part report on a year of investigation into the compressive strength of ship hull girders. The report covers stiffened mild steel plates with a/b = 3 and b/t = 50. Seven tests were conducted on panels and grillages loaded in axial compression in various combinations with transverse membrane compression and normal pressure. In addition, a three-bay girder was tested in pure bending.
