The design resistance for bending of a cross section is given by : § 6.2.5
Mc,Rd = Mpl,Rd = Wpl,y fy / γM0 = (1307 × 355 / 1,0) / 1000

Reduction factor for lateral torsional buckling


To determine the design buckling resistance moment of a laterally
unrestrained beam, the reduction factor for lateral torsional buckling must be
determined. The restraint provided by the steel sheet is in this case quite small
and it is neglected. The following calculation determines this factor by a
simplified method for lateral torsional buckling. This method avoids
calculating the elastic critical moment for lateral torsional buckling.

Minimum degree of shear connection

Le is the distance in sagging bending between points of zero bending moment


in metres, for our example : Le = 9,0 m
So, ηmin = 1 – (355 / 355) (0,75 – 0,03 × 9,0) = 0,520

Construction stage

SLS Combination during the construction stage :


FG + FQ = 49,28 + 13,5 = 62,78 kN
qG = 0,65 kN/m EN 1990
§ 6.5.3

Deflection during the construction stage :


Iy is the second moment of area of the steel beam.

5 × 0,65 × 9000 4 3000 × (3 × 9000 2 - 4 × 3000 2 )


wG = + × 49280
384 × 210000 × 23130 × 10 4 24 × 210000 × 23130 × 10 4
wG = 1,1 + 26,2 = 27,3 mm

3000 × (3 × 9000 2 - 4 × 3000 2 )


wQ = × 13500 = 7,2 mm
24 × 210000 × 23130 × 10 4
So, w = wG + wQ = 27,3 + 7,2 = 34,5 mm

The deflection under (G+Q) is L/261

Final stage

SLS Combination
FG + FQ = 62,78 + 45,0 = 107,78 kN EN 1990
qG = 0,65 kN/m § 6.5.3

Deflection at the final stage :


Iy depends on the modular ratio (n) depending on the type of loading. By
simplification, we can take :
n0 = Ea / Ecm = 210000 / 31000 = 6,77 for short-term effects (Q) EN 1994-1-1
4
So Iy = 82458 cm at mid span § 7.2.1
Created on Thursday, February 14, 2008

And n = 3Ea / Ecm = 20,31 for permanent loads (G)


So Iy = 62919 cm4

Note : It may be used for both short-term and long-term loading, a EN 1994-1-1
nominal modular ratio (n) corresponding to an effective
modulus of elasticity for concrete Ec,eff taken as Ecm / 2. § 5.4.2.2 (11)

wG = 27,3 mm

wpartitions = × 13500 = 2,6 mm
24 × 210000 × 62919 × 10 4
3000 × ( 3 × 9000 2 - 4 × 3000 2 )
wQ = × 45000 = 6,7 mm
24 × 210000 × 82458 × 10 4
So, w = wG + wpartitions + wQ = 27,3 + 2,6 + 6,7 = 36,6 mm

The deflection under (G + Q) is L/246

Note 1 : The limits of deflection should be specified by the client. The


National Annex may specify some limits. Here the result may be
considered as fully satisfactory.

Note 2 : Concerning vibrations, the National Annex may specify limits EN 1993-1-1
concerning the frequency. Here the total deflection is low and the § 7.2.3
mass fairly high and by experience there is no problem of vibration.
