Shear Strength
It is assumed that only the web thickness carries the shear in W shapes. The
average shear stress is then compared against allowable shear stress with a maximum
of 0.40 Fy. The average shear stress in the web is:

Module XX: Deflection of Beams
Excessive deflections of steel beams may cause damage of other material
attached or supported by the beams and will also damage the appearance of the
structures. Beams and Girders supporting floors and roofs shall be proportioned with due
regard to the deflection produced by the design loads. Beams and girders supporting
plastered ceiling shall be proportioned that the maximum deflection does not exceed
1/360 of span.
Note: Look for some other deflection formula based on the type load and its support.
Sample Problem 1
A W14x87 beam has a simple span of 9 m which is laterally supported every 3 m. Use
Grade 50 steel with Fy = 344.5 MPa. Neglect the weight of the beam.
