<title>ABSTRACT</title>
<p>In order to reduce the weight and the material cost in the steel structures, a study on the
slender sectional design has been continuously carried out. Steel beams with corrugated
web have been widely used in the steel structures. The welding part between the
corrugated web and the flange, however, is not straight, which makes the production
costs increased. In order to compensate for this drawback, steel beam with an intaglio
and embossed web (IEB) was invented by Innovation &amp; Smart Heavy Industry Co.,
Ltd., South Korea. Plain plate is pressed to keep the upper and lower boundary of the
web straight. This makes it possible to weld the flange and the embossed web by the
automatic welding machine. In this study, four types of specimens were tested for
comparison with plain H-shaped steel beam. Experimental results showed that the
maximum load of the IEB specimens is about 1.3 times larger than that of the H-shaped
steel beams. This is because the tension field action of embossed web significantly
increased the post-buckling strength.</p>
