Hi all,
I'm working to Australian Standard AS 5224 which is based upon ISO 20332. I'd like to check the originating standard's version of equation 67 but don't have access to a copy of the 2018 version which has a modification to that equation.
Further to that, if anyone can point me in the...
Agent666 - yes I'm aware and had already done so but it doesn't seem to offer much explanation for this issue either. Of course that could possibly be not helped by the translation but I've struggled to see anything that looks applicable really.
I'm trying to do an LTBeamN buckling check of a stacked column arrangement and I've got this error. Does anyone know what it means - I can't make head nor tail of the French manual to try and sort it out. Sections are property specified:
h: 280
A: 5726.2
Iy: 3.78E+7
Iz: 3.78E+7
It: 3.784E+7...
It's wise to consider this - it's a significant hidden cost to going back into the workforce should you fail or just get sick of lying awake at night second guessing yourself.
I checked a couple of years back and I could get a buyout of my policy. It was several times more expensive than a year...
@BAretired - I was asking the OP rather than you, sorry. Could have been clearer. How the OP has the end arrangement constrained in turn has some bearing on the stress experienced within it.
I think the stress in the plate is a tad more complex than evenly distributed across the length and/or...
@JohnRBaker - this may be an Australia vs US variation...or simply that the industries I've dealt with have preferences for terminology which don't align with those you have experience in.
That said, WRT the video you included, as the features are formed rather than added, I too would...
How are the C-channels constrained in turn? At the base or at the cross-sectional end? I'm guessing the base but you know what they say about assumptions....
I would expect the shear centre to be located midway between the two angles horizontally and roughly midway through the thickness of the horizontal leg. I suspect you should be able to calculate the shear centre for a single angle in the same orientation and use the vertical location for your...
I rarely hear/see rib used with reference to sheet metal; typically in cases where a rib might be called for to stiffen a panel, the component is designated as a stiffener and may be differentiated as traverse or longitudinal.
Does anyone know if the d term of the equation given in 5.14.5 to refers to the beam depth or the critical flange width?
Furthermore, it seems counter-intuitive to me that as you increase the slenderness ratio of the stiffener, alpha-t approaches zero and therefore the requirement for the Is...
Australian Standard AS 1418.1 - 2002 Clause 7.20.3.6 (now superseded and I haven't tracked down if there's a new minimum worn thickness specification in the new standard) has a section that specifically details the minimum worn flange thickness. It is a specification which should be defined in...
@rb1957 - Originally the question matched a specific piece of equipment I received an enquiry about but after I managed to speak to someone who actually knew what was going on, it didn't fit the profile. As you can see it's pretty much either a case of it's too hard/expensive or figure out your...
