This study presents a numerical investigation of the elastic critical lateral-torsional buckling of a steel beam subjected to simultaneous transverse loading at the top flange and negative end moments. Here, the elastic critical buckling of the steel beam was estimated by utilizing the finite element software ABAQUS. In addition, the influence of the length-to-height ratio was taken into account. Additionally, the predicted values for elastic critical buckling when applying existing design codes and a previous study were also analyzed and compared to the numerical results of the finite element analysis. The result of the comparison revealed that the projected values from the design codes and the study are conservative for the majority of cases and have a tendency to be too conservative when the length-to-height ratio increases. Furthermore, a new equation with a factor considering the influence of the length-to-height ratio and transverse loading on the top flange is proposed, and the proposed equation shows sufficient accuracy and less conservative values for most cases.
