ULSAC - Lightweight Steel Automotive Closures

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2001
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Following the success of the UltraLight Steel Auto Body (ULSAB) in 1997, the UltraLight Steel Auto Closure (ULSAC) Consortium representing steel producers from all over the world was founded. Porsche Engineering Services, Inc. (PES) was commissioned to conduct a concept study for the development of UltraLight Steel

Advanced method for lightweight steel joining

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 1999
Abstract In this paper, a new joint-type for steel sheet jointing is presented. The joint is called the Rosette joint and it is formed using the parent metal of the sections to be joined. The Rosette joint contains two different parts: the collar and hole.

Lightweight Concrete-on-Steel Composite Beams

Engineering Journal, 1971
Current design specifications for composite beams include no provisions for beams with lightweight concrete. Conceptually, the use of lightweight concrete for composite beams can lead to greater economy, since a substantial reduction in dead load can be obtained.

Fatigue performance of lightweight steel–concrete–steel sandwich systems

Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 2010
Abstract This paper investigates the static and fatigue strength behavior of a composite sandwich system, which consists of a lightweight concrete core sandwiched in between two steel plates and interconnected by J-hook connectors. For this purpose, fibre-reinforced lightweight concrete, of density less than 1450 kg/m3, and novel J-hook connectors ...

Composite Beams of Steel and Lightweight Concrete

Engineering Journal, 1965
Since publication of the 1961 AISC Specification, interest in composite design has grown. Concurrent with this growth in interest has been the development of new types of shear connectors and the use of composite design with lightweight concrete floor slabs.

Lightweight steel–concrete–steel sandwich system with J-hook connectors

Engineering Structures, 2009
This paper investigates a new concept for designing composite structures comprising a lightweight concrete core sandwiched in between two steel plates which are interconnected by J-hook connectors. Specifically, lightweight concrete (density less than 1450 kg/m3) and novel J-hook connectors have been developed for this purpose.

Deep drawing properties of lightweight steel/polymer/steel sandwich composites

Archives of Civil and Mechanical Engineering, 2012
Abstract Due to the wide range of different properties – such as high strength, stiffness, high damping capacity, vibration resistance and the lightweight – metal/polymer/metal sandwich composites find their application as various body-parts in the automotive industry.

Corrosion of Steel in Lightweight Concrete Specimens

ACI Journal Proceedings, 1968
SEVERE CORROSION OF REINFORCEMENT IN CHANNEL SLABS OF A ROOF STRUCTURE WAS REPRODUCED BY CYCLIC EXPOSURE OF LABORATORY MOLDED PRISMS AND CYCLINDERS CONTAINING STEEL INSERTS. EARLIER STUDIES USING SMALL CYLINDERS SHOWED THAT THE FIRST INDICATIONS OF CORROSION WOULD BE EVIDENT AFTER CYCLES OF WETTING AND DRYING.

Steel–Concrete–Steel sandwich slabs with lightweight core — Static performance

Engineering Structures, 2011
Abstract This paper investigates the static performance of Steel–Concrete–Steel (SCS) sandwich slabs which consist of an ultra-lightweight concrete core sandwiched between two steel plates. Special J-hook connectors have been developed to develop composite action between the concrete core and the two steel plates.

Shrinkage of Steel-Fibre-Reinforced Lightweight Concrete

2020
Long-term behaviour of steel fibre reinforced concrete remains rather unknown and to a large extent unquantified by equations and standards. This paper studies experimentally the free drying shrinkage of steel fibre reinforced lightweight concrete during the first 28 days using 100 × 100 × 500 mm beams. The coarse lightweight material tested (LYTAG) is
