List of Steel Beam posts-part-2a.

1-Introduction to Cb-Bending coefficient part-1 for steel.

This is the first post in the List of Steel Beam posts-part-2a.

This is post number 17 for  Steel Beams  Posts, which includes:
 1-How do we estimate the CB-bending coefficient values for different loading types and bracing locations?

 2- How can moment gradient cb be estimated for a simply supported beam under uniform loading?

3-How can the moment gradient factor CB for a fixed-ends beam be estimated under uniform loading?

This summarizes the values of Cb, or the bending coefficient, for different steel beam loadings and bracing locations.

 This is a snapshot of the equation used to find the Cb value of the gradient coefficient for steel beams based on the factor of 12.50/12.50. After selecting the required bracing locations, we have a simple beam under a uniform load.

That beam has two bracings at the supports. Divide each strip by Four quarters and evaluate the absolute maximum moment value for an unbraced segment, M max.

Evaluate the maximum absolute moment value for the first one-fourth of the unbraced segment, MA.

Find the absolute value of the maximum moment at the center line of the unbraced segment, which is MB.

Find the maximum absolute moment value at the midpoint of the unbraced segment, MB.

Find the maximum absolute moment value (MC) at three-quarters of the unbraced segment. For the numerator, multiply Mmax by 12.50.

The factor of 12.50 at the denominator represents the sum of 4.50 Max plus 3Ma plus 4*Mb plus 3Mc.

The final value of Cb can be obtained for the simple beam, as shown in the slide image; its value is 12.5/11=1.14.

5- CB value bracing at third points of a beam-U load.

This is Post number 18c of the Steel beams  Posts, which includes:

     How do you find the CB value bracing at the third point of a beam-uniform load-simple beam case?

We have four braces for the simple beam AB at A, C, D, and B—the distance AC-CD=DB=L/4.

The next slide image illustrates the details of estimating the absolute moment values for unbraced segment AA for the simply supported beam under uniform load.
