Combined opening girders with high stiffener webs used in the superstructure areas of passenger ships are prone to complex buckling phenomena under combined longitudinal and vertical loads caused by overall longitudinal bending and vertical forces from the deck cargo. In addition, the deformation and stress induced during structural assembly and welding make the buckling behaviour more difficult to predict. In response to this situation, thermal elastic–plastic and nonlinear finite element methods were used to simulate the welding and loading process and related experiments were conducted to provide a comparison. We further extended the investigation of the buckling behaviour of girders to the combined opening plate frame and investigated the buckling behaviour using experiments. This research on the buckling behaviour of combined opening girders and plate frames could provide a reference for the optimal design of these members in actual ship structures.
