Behaviour of concrete-encased steel Castellated beam: A review.

Castellated beams are well contemporarily ascribable to their structural applications. The Castellated beams are manufactured by fragmenting hot-formed rolled section that is of I shape in then it is welded together. The numerical analysis is performed using ABAQUS software. Consequently flexural, shear behavior of Castellated beams, various size and shape of openings provided, depth of openings, usage of different kinds of stiffeners, columns with and without web openings are the attempts made up in different journal papers and he researchers. It is also found that the Finite element analysis of the beam shows better results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
