Discover an easy approach to structural steel design, summarizing essential topics in tension, compression, beams, and connections for steel items, focusing on structural steel design.
In this post there is a list of Tension Member’s Posts-part 2, the list starts from post 7 till post 9d. For shear lag factor and several practice problems.
List of Tension Member’s Posts-part 1A from post 2 to post 6. The list includes nominal strength estimation, and workable gauge lines. and introduction to effective net area estimate.
Practice problem 5-5-8 A W18 x 71 is used as a beam with an unbraced length of 9 feet. Use Fy=65 ksi and Cb = 1 and compute the nominal flexural strength.
Practice problem 6-17-11-find Sx and ZX for WT5x22.50. it is required to model WT5x22.5 into two rectangles and find elastic and plastic section modului.
