Abstract
In the ideal case the connection of the strut member is concentric at the shear centre of the column's web ,While in some construction cases, the connection between strut members of a vertical bracing system and the web of a steel column is made eccentrically, which introduces additional instability. The AISC 360 2022 specifications address this condition by providing equations to calculate the critical buckling stress associated with Constrained Axis Torsional Buckling (CATB). This phenomenon arises due to the eccentricity of lateral bracing from the shear center of the section and leads to a significant reduction in the axial capacity of columns, with losses reaching up to 40% in certain cases. This research focuses on improving the axial capacity of steel columns by studying double sided batten plate configurations applied to the standard IPE profile. The primary objective is to examine the behavior of battened I section columns with eccentric Lateral bracing, analyze their failure modes, and the enhancement in axial strength achieved using batten plates.
