Abstract
Recent years significant research have been done on the steel
column-bases. More and more numerical models are
introduced for the analysis of the complicated behaviour. In
this paper the authors give a general view about the
behaviour and modelling aspects of the base plate type
column-bases. The different level of target models for
column-bases are classified. The 2D and 3D finite element
models of column-bases are discussed in details. The
assumptions, requirements, and computational aspects of the
highly nonlinear models are shown. The numerical analyses
by 2D finite element models are demonstrated (column-base
components: T-stub , tension/compression zones).
Advanced 3D finite element models under development are
introduced. General conclusion is given on computational
background of the numerical models of base plate type
column-bases. The role of these models in the column-base
research is discussed.
