Development and validation of a numerical model for buckling of coped beams
article
The lateral torsional buckling resistance of a beam depends on the support conditions. In
structures for buildings, coped beams are often used. A numerical model is developed to investigate
the influence of copes on the lateral buckling resistance. The model was verified with laboratory
tests. This paper describes the background of the numerical model, the test program and the results
of the validation. In a companion paper [Maljaars J, Stark JWB, Steenbergen HMGM, Abspoel

2005;61(11):1559–75], the results of a parameter study are presented
