Elastic design of tapered beam-columns subjected to concentrated axial and transversal loads

Tapered members are an efficient solution for steel beams, allowing an adjustment of the cross-sections resistance to the applied loads. However, while the critical cross-section of uniform beams is always the one subjected to the most unfavourable load combination, it is not the case with tapered b...
