内容简介：Although significant efforts are underway worldwide to develop reliable standards for the design of glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) pultruded structural members, there remain a number of important gaps in the knowledge and understanding of the behaviour of these members. This presentation summarises recent advances made related to both local (web and flange buckling) and global (Euler and lateral torsional buckling) behavior of such members. Experimental and analytical investigations are reported and are contrasted with current and proposed design standards. Issues of local-global buckling interaction and the impact of creep are highlighted.
