Most cases are <10k. Worst case is 35k & 3 degrees rotation. Your method would yield sin(3)*35k*3in/12in/ft = 0.46 k-ft. Which is pretty much negligible.
That was my first thought too. The EOR shows end reactions on the drawings which I am assuming it is oriented in the plane of the member as shown above. I was thinking of assuming the worst case scenario which is that the shear is perpendicular to the ground and a moment would be generated, but...
Hello all,
I am designing connections for a small project with rotated beams to accommodate a slope. They EOR and their fabricator decided it would be easier to just rotate the beams to accommodate the slope rather than account for the slope in the connections of the beams on top. After some...
