Behavior analysis of bar gaps in welded YT-joints for rolled-steel circular hollow sections

We present a parametric analysis of gap variation between the lap brace and through brace of YT welded joints for rolled-steel circular hollow sections on plane steel structures. Our aim is to investigate the collapse behavior of YT-joints under lap brace axial compression. In particular, we focus o...
