The maximum bending capacity and the plastic deformation capacity of cantilever beam-columns with H-sections made of various grades of steel are investigated. Dimensions of sections are so selected that the maximum bending strengths are governed by the local buckling of plate elements. Reasonable correlations are found between experimental results and theoretical predictions. Finally .width-to-thickness ratio limitations of flange and web corresponding to any ductility demand for each grade of steel are presented.
