Application of limit design to high-strength aluminum alloy beams

Although investigations have shown that the theory of limit design applies to beams and some frames made of mild steel, it is not certain whether it applies in the same way to the light alloys. Steel frames satisfy the limit design prediction of a failure mechanism not only because steel is very duc...
