14Beam Design
- LTB Strength
- One LTB Strength Ratio Calculated per Unbraced
Length - Cb based on Flexural Stress, not Moment
- AASHTO Cb
- Calculate Critical Stress, FeLTB, using Midspan
Properties - Find Controlling Ratio of Mr/Mn
15Column Design
- In-Plane Strength
- One In-Plane Strength Ratio Calculated per Member
- For DM, Calculated from PeL
- For ELM, Calculated from Pcr
- Find Controlling Ratio of Pr/Pn
16How do I Calculate K?
- You Dont - Use alternate expressions for Fe
17Method of Successive Approximations
- Practical method to determine elastic in-plane
buckling load (or multiplier) of tapered column
with any loading pattern - Presented in detail in Timoshenko and Gere -
Theory of Elastic Stability, Section 2.15 - Adaptable to Spreadsheet and/or Procedural
Programming
18Column Design
- Out-of-Plane Strength
- One In-Plane Strength Ratio Calculated per
Unbraced Length - Calculated based on Midspan Properties (approx.
the same) - Flexural Buckling
- Flexural-Torsional Buckling
- Torsional Buckling
- Constrained-Axis Torsional Buckling
- Find Controlling Ratio of Pr/Pn
19Combined Strength
- Using AISC combined strength equations
- Combine Maximum Ratios of Pr/Pn and Mr/Mn
- Stress based alternate format
- Divide Required and Available Strength by Same
Section Property - Combined Tensile and Flexural Rupture Equation
20Tension - Shear
- Tension - usual AISC checks at critical
cross-sections - Shear Buckling Strengths from Falby and Lee
- based on Average a/h and h/tw values
- Tension field and non-tension field equations
