Abstract

The paper is on the behaviour of corroded angle section members under centric compression. The structural elements, with different cross-sections and slenderness, are studied by finite element analysis. The joint effects of various corrosion parameters are studied. The behaviour modes are determined in the function of the parameters of the corrosion and the cross-section characteristics. Conclusions are drawn on the decreasing tendency of the ultimate load.
