Span
|
This indicates the span for which the values are being
listed, which is always listed as Center since cantilevers are not allowed for
C-Beamâ„¢.
|
Cond
|
This indicates the load condition. It includes:
Setting | Description |
---|
Precmp
|
Precomposite load (Construction Dead Load plus
Construction Live Load; listed for composite beams only)
|
InitDL
|
Construction Dead Load (listed for composite
beams only)
|
Max +
|
Maximum Positive Moment
|
Max -
|
Maximum Negative Moment
|
|
Moment
|
This is the moment for the indicated Condition.
|
@
|
This is the location of the indicated moment, measured
from the left end of the beam.
|
Lb
|
This is the unbraced length for the segment containing
the indicated moment. If the compression flange is fully braced throughout the
segment, Lb is indicated with "0.0", meaning there is no unbraced length to be
considered. Listed for noncomposite beams only.
|
Cb
|
This is the Bending Coefficient. Listed for
noncomposite beams only.
|
fb
|
This is the actual bending stress in the beam for the
moment indicated. Values for the Tension Flange and Compression Flange are
included. Listed for noncomposite beams only.
|
Fb
|
This is the allowable bending stress for the segment.
Values for the Tension Flange and Compression Flange are included. Listed for
noncomposite beams only.
|
Controlling
|
This is the controlling set of values. Listed for
noncomposite beams only.
|
fc
|
This is the compressive stress in the concrete. Listed
for composite beams only.
|
Fc
|
This is the allowable compressive stress in the
concrete. Listed for composite beams only.
