Light gauge elements for integrated beams were used, and thin webs are typically needed in constructed beams’ economical design. However, the buckling problem may arise if the Web is fragile. This risk may be reduced by using thicker panels, web reinforcements, or web enhancements. The use of corrugated Web is a possible means of achieving adequate rigidity and shear resistance without hardeners. Analytical studies were conducted in this present work to study the bending behavior of the conventional beam and light-weight steel beam with corrugated, concrete enclosed Web. Analyzes of finite elements have been conducted using the ANSYS beam software. The results present the capacity for load carrying and the deformation of the concrete-covered corrugated web beams. This study’s main objective is to acquire a better knowledge of a concrete embedded steel beam’s behavior.
