Hi All,
Can anyone assist with this. I have a frame (comprising of a tubular section)supported on a concrete block, global bending stress checks are OK but would like to check local buckling/ovalisation stress to make sure that the tubular will not buckle espercially at the edges of the...
Hi All,
Is there any specific code that stipulates the allowable deflection of beams? I notice that different values are used by different engineers. There should be different requirements for:
variable (live) loads only
variable (live) load + permanent load
vibratory loads
support condition...
Hi ALL,
Could any of you please throw some light on this? I'm trying to estimate clamping force. Initially, I need to know how much force is required to compress the neoprene between my clamp and tubular section. I have properties of the neoprene however do not know how to compute the...
Hi All,
What will be the allowable stress for von mises stress checks to AISC ASD 1989 Edition?
Major axis bending Fby = 0.66Fy
Minor axis bending Fbz = 0.75Fy
Tension Ft = 0.6Fy
Shear fv = 0.4Fy
Combined stress check
fa/Fa + fby/Fby + fbz/Fbz < 1.0
v.m = ((fa + fby +fbz)^2 + 3(fvy +...
