DESIGN OF LATERALLY Semi-compact sections – extreme fiber attains yield stress Md = My = (fyZe)/γmo γmo = 1.1
9 10
Shear does not influence the flexural strength for values of Shear strains cause cross-sections to warp, contrary to simple
shear upto 0.6Vd, where Vd is the design shear strength bending theory
Md = βb(fyZp)/γmo ≤ 1.2 (fyZe)/γmo Non-uniform stress distribution across the width of a flange
Most rolled I and C sections have Zp/Ze < 1.2 < 1.2Zefy/γmo for simply-supported & Shear lag effects influence bending stresses in flanges that are
cantilever beams very wide (e.g. plate girders or box girders)
Prevent irreversible/permanent deformation < 1.5Zefy/γmo for other general cases
at working loads (serviceability loads)
When these limits are exceeded, the effective width of the
flange may be conservatively taken as the values satisfying the
limits

Similar to columns, residual stresses reduce the moment carrying capacity of beams Similar to columns, lack of straightness in beams due to fabrication and erection
Effects worse in welded I-sections Eccentricity in loading exacerbates twisting in the cross-section

The smaller flange in compression is more critical. Once twisted, the shear component of the
normal bending stresses has a larger lever arm in the second case, causing further destabilizing
torques.

In general, if the holes do not remove more than 15% of the gross area of the flange, they are neglected,
provided there is no fatigue
49 50
Holes in beam webs have less effect on flexural strength than holes in flanges
Holes in beam webs should ideally only be placed in regions of low shear When loads act through the shear centre, the problem is
simple bending in two perpendicular directions
Holes in beam flanges should be cut at points of low bending moments
Best location for the opening is within the middle one-third of the span
Beams subjected to biaxial
Clear spacing between openings should be more than the beam depth D bending have to be
designed by trial and error
Point loads should not be applied within a distance D from the adjacent opening
Use section effectively by
allocating to one direction,
Openings decrease the stiffness of the beams resulting in larger deflections what has not been used up
in the other direction
Reinforcing plates are provided around large size holes to prevent buckling
Lateral buckling is not a limit
state for weak axis bending

The principal axes (u-u) and (v-v) do not coincide with the horizontal and vertical axes
Resolve the load into components perpendicular to the two principal axes, and then determine the
component bending moments about the two principal axes : Reduce problem to bending about two
axes

Load is spread out over a finite length of the web : Web stiffeners at load locations (Load transfer occurs gradually, not abruptly)

Deep flexural members, used typically in long spans (> 24m), and can carry loads that cannot be
economically carried by rolled beams

Offers limitless possibilities to designer in choosing the right cross-sections, and changing the sections
along the length of the member
However, it requires welding flange and web plates together

Plate girders are built-up beams, made by welding of plates Efficient design usually results in slender members
Plate girders offer more flexibility, but other design problems arise Large values of d/t for the web would make the web buckle at low values of applied loading

Local buckling with the stiffeners forming nodal lines, and the plate panels buckling between the
stiffeners (stiffener acts as a brace of infinite lateral stiffness)
Types of stiffeners:
Longitudinal stiffeners
89 90
Buckling strength is a function of the location and stiffness of the longitudinal stiffener
C C If longitudinal stiffener is placed too low, then top panel (between compression flange and stiffener
ds will buckle)
If longitudinal stiffener is placed too high, then bottom panel (between stiffener and neutral axis) will
buckle

The optimum location is when both panels buckle simultaneously
