The performance of a new blind bolt for moment-resisting connections. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tizani, W., & Ridley-Ellis, D. (2003). The performance of a new blind bolt for moment-resisting connections. In M. A. Jaurrieta, A. Alonso, & J. A. Chica (Eds.), Tubular Structures X: Proceedings of the 10th International Symposium, Madrid, Spain, 18-20 S

The paper introduces the principal findings of a testing programme carried out to assess the performance of a newly developed blind-bolt. The blind-bolt, an evolution of the Lindapter-Hollobolt, is in-tended for use when making moment-resisting conne...

Design of RHS for torsion using simplified thick wall theory. (2003)
Journal Article
Ridley-Ellis, D., Owen, J. S., & Davies, G. (2003). Design of RHS for torsion using simplified thick wall theory. The structural engineer : journal of the Institution of Structural Engineers, 81, 31-36

The theory of torsion in Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS) is reviewed and discussed with reference to design code treatments in the UK, Europe and the USA. The classical theories based on thin wall and thick wall assumptions are compared, and thick... Read More about Design of RHS for torsion using simplified thick wall theory..

Torsional behaviour of rectangular hollow sections (2003)
Journal Article
Ridley-Ellis, D., Owen, J. S., & Davies, G. (2003). Torsional behaviour of rectangular hollow sections. Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 59, 641-663. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0143-974X%2802%2900060-3

The results of a series of full-scale torsion tests on rectangular hollow sections (RHS) are presented and discussed. The observed torque–twist behaviour is compared to that predicted by an extended version of Marshall’s simplified thick wall torsion...
