Hi
Has anyone had any experience designing flat plate as a beam?
I need to design a tapered flat plate (250mm x12mm wide tapering to 150x 12mm wide) cantilever beam supporting a glass canopy.
The beam is lightly loaded but has no lateral restraint.
I cant seem to find any design guides or codes that cover the topic.
Any ideas?
