Apologies, forgot embedment could be done. I'll do better next time.
Thank you for the helpful comments.
Makes sense that it would depend on the attachment to a degree (blue in the image below, correct me if I'm wrong).
Say I have a wide flange beam in a simple span condition, no lateral support of any kind.
I apply a point load "X" inches away from the beam centerline at the midspan (so an eccentric point load).
Would this loading condition be considered torsion or minor axis bending? I believe it to be...
See attached images. S & Z come from SkyCiv. I've been using F4 for my reinforcement calcs, but I figured I'd check web slenderness to see if I could use F5 instead. However, this issue does come up when calculating the web plastification factor. I'm sure the capacities are fine, but I wanted to...
I have an (E) 50ksi wide flange beam that will be reinforced with a 50ksi 1"x12" cover plate stitch welded to the bottom flange. The beam is in positive bending (top flange in compression, bottom reinforced flange in tension).
I want to check the web slenderness. According to attached AISC...
RE: Celt83 - After reading the thread, that's what I was afraid of, but I understand. Thank you for the book reference, I'll take a look!
RE: WesternJeb - Yeah, 2-4% is't terrible, could be worse. Maybe I'm just an old soul and trust hand calcs more since I can see what I'm doing; software can...
I have a 50ksi wide flange beam that I'm reinforcing with a 50ksi WT (welding the stem to the bottom flange of the wide flange).
I'm trying to check the LTB limit state of the member per AISC 360-16 Section F4.2, but am having trouble figuring out how to calculate the torsional constant, J.
I...
