Practice problem-transverse weld of a WT section. It is required to estimate the LRFD and ASD value for a given welded WT section.
9-Two Solved problems for an estimate of effective net area.
2 solved problems for a single angle connected to a gusset plate, first by bolts and second problem by welds. How to determine the effective net area?
8- Solved problem 4-2 for shear Lag factor U.
Solved problem 4-2 for shear lag factor U, for a welded angle to a gusset plate, Weld details, and section of angle is given.
7- Solved problem for design strength of tension member.
A solved problem 3-6 for determining the LRFD and ASD tensile design strength for W section, the shear lag is discussed through the solved problem 3-6.
6-Definition of the effective area for tension members.
Definition of the effective area for tension members, and why we use it for estimation of the net area? what is shear lag and how we estimate the factor U?
5-Solved problems for the net area estimation.
Two Solved problems 3-4-2& 3-5 are explained. In both solved problems net area is to be estimated, first for an equal angle and second for the C channel.
