Abstract

This paper presents experimental work conducted with the purpose of verifying the ultimate flexural strength of hybrid composite girders constructed using the high performance steel of HSB600. HSB600 is newly developed in Korea and its 0.2% proof stress and tensile strength are over 450 MPa and 600 MPa, respectively. Two composite beams included a hybrid beam were fabricated and tested. The test results show that if the plastic moment of hybrid composite beam is calculated with the 0.2% proof stress for yield strength of HSB600, the ultimate flexural strength will be over conservative. Based on the test results, the ductility requirement and the flexural strength for hybrid composite girder constructed using HPS600 are discussed.
