I agree Young's Modulus of Elasticity is a material property that doesnt change due to shape. However the Flexural Modulus of Elasticity is not the same parameter.
Hi all
I am looking at a buried gas pipeline to determine if it is strong enough to support a load at ground level. To do this i am using BS EN 1295 and I need to determine the flexural modulusof elasticity for a 18 inch diameter steel pipe.
Is there a standard formula for this as I can't seem...
Open section so i am reliant on the torsional resistance. I am going to go with restraining the top of the cantilever or tying together two beams that are adjacent, therefore increasing the torsional resistance. Visit site tomorrow to see.
Thanks ishvaaag, pretty much what i was thinking but only worried about any unknown forces that would have an effect being quite a tall lever arm.
Thanks for the info.
I am designing a new pipe support to be supported on top of an existing steel first floor beam. The new pipe support is a 152UC, approx 2.5m tall and has an eccentric load at approx 500mm (like a hangman support). I have calculated the torsional load for the horizontal eccentricity but i am not...
