Abstract: The structural action of a beam is predominantly bending, with other effects such as shear, bearing and buckling also being presented. Due to the more application of corrugated section in steel design, this paper develops a three-dimensional finite element model using SAP2000 to investigate the effects of web corrugation on bending behavior of corrugated web profile (CWEB) steel sections. A corrugated web profile (CWEB) steel section is a built-up steel section made up of two flanges connected to a web plate of triangular profile. Thin shell element was chosen to represent the element type of the model. Three models were used for analysis one of flat web (FW) and two sizes of CWEB of different corrugation angle. Design is done based on IS: 800-2007(LSM). Loads considered in modeling are Dead load, Live load Wind load and Earthquake load along with the combination as specified in IS. Response spectrum analysis and time history analysis are carried out for zone 5, structural parameters like self weight, vertical deflection, lateral deflection and design forces results are compared for all the models.
