Abstract :
[en] Angle profiles belong to the most common steel profiles used in several types of civil engineering structures, such as in lattice towers. Although, in such towers, they are usually considered as axially loaded (truss) members, an additional bending moment develops due
to the eccentricity between the point of load application and the gravity center of the profile. Therefore, this paper focuses on the buckling resistance of single-angle members subjected to combined compression and bending. The investigations have been performed through
numerical parametrical studies and have been compared to different normative documents where interaction equations are provided.
