Abstract
In this study, the test results of the steel I-beams having web openings are evaluated according to the probabilistic methods at the ultimate and serviceability limit states. When the internal forces are calculated as elastic and the resistance of the element sections plastic, the interaction equations of the element sections can be used as boundary criteria; and when they are computed as plastic, the equations of mechanism can be used as boundary criteria. The criteria used for the assessment of random variables are constituted in linear and non-linear forms. Parametric studies are performed for the ultimate and serviceability limit states by choosing the various mean values of the applied loads. The test program was conducted at the Structural Material Laboratory of Civil Engineering Faculty of Istanbul Technical University.
