In the previous paper, a new buckling design formula for simply supported plate panels subjected to combined in-plane and lateral loads was suggested. The effect of welding residual stress was also included. For the plasticity correction, the well-known Johnson-Ostenfeld formula was used.
In the present study, more advanced formula of the plasticity correction is proposed taking account of edge condition effects. The applicability of the proposed formula is demonstrated by comparing with the present and the conventional result.
