Verify the bending capacity and compression capacity of an H section beam.

Details

The member is a 5 m long simply-supported beam. The section used is an H300x150x6.5x9. The steel has a yield strength of 235 MPa, a modulus of elasticity of 205×(10)3 MPa, and a shear modulus of 79×(10)3 MPa.

The member is subject to the following loads:
  • a -10 kN concentrated force at mid-span in the global Y direction
  • a 3 kN concentrated force at mid-span in the global Z direction
  • a -40 kN axial force
  • a -0.2 kN·m concentrated moment at the left end

Section Properties

Dimensions:

  • Leg, D = 300 mm
  • Width, B = 150 mm
  • Thickness of web, tw = 6.5 mm
  • Thickness of flange, tf = 9 mm
Depth of web, d = D - 2tf = 282 mm

Area, Ax = 4,678 mm2

Moment of inertia about major axis, I z = 72.1 ( 10 ) 6  mm 4

Moment of inertia about minor axis, I y = 0.508 ( 10 ) 6  mm 4

Major axis section modulus, Z z = 480.7 ( 10 ) 3  mm 3

Minor axis section modulus, Z y = 67.73 ( 10 ) 3  mm 3

Torsional constant, J = 99.5 ( 10 ) 3  mm 4

Warping constant, C W = 107.5 ( 10 ) 9  mm 6

Radius of gyration about major axis, r z = I z A = 124.1  mm

Radius of gyration about minor axis, r y = I y A = 32.95  mm

Section Classification

For webs of beams in compression (Cl. 8.1):

d t w = 282 8 = 43.39 < 1.6 E F = 1.6 205,000 235 = 47.26

Depth to thickness ratio is "OK".

For webs of beams in bending (Cl. 8.1):

d t w = 43.39 < 2.4 E F = 2.4 205,000 235 = 70.89

Depth to thickness ratio is "OK".

Allowable Compressive Stress

The slenderness ratio of compression members (Cl. 11.1):

λ z = K z × L z r z = 1 × 5,000 124.1 = 40.27
λ y = K y × L y r y = 1 × 5,000 32.95 = 151.7

Therefore, λ = 151.7.

Slenderness ratio dividing elastic and inelastic buckling (Cl no 5.5):

Λ = π 2 × E 0.6 × F = π 2 × 205,000 0.6 × 235  = 119.8
ν=  3 2 + 2 3 × λ Ʌ 2 = 3 2 + 2 3 × 151.7 119.8 2 =2.570

λ > Λ, so the allowable compressive stress is given by Cl. 5.4:

f c  = 0.277 × F λ Ʌ   2 = 0.277 × 235 151.7 119.8   2 = 40.57  MPa

Allowable Flexural Stress

Distance between braced points of the compression flange, lb = 5,000 mm.

The yield moment, M y = F × Z z = 235 × 480.7 ( 10 ) 3 10 6 = 113.0  kN·m

The modification factor for allowable flexural stress (Cl. 5.13):

C = 1

The elastic lateral-torsional buckling moment (Cl 5.12):

M e = C × π 4 × E × I y × E × I w l b 4 + π 2 × E × I y × G × J l b 2
π 4 × E × I y × E × I w l b 4 = π 4 × 205,000 × 50.8 × 10 6 × 205,000 × 107.5 × 10 9 5,000 4 = 35.77 × 10 15
π 2 × E × I y × G × J l b 2 = π 2 × 205,000 × 50.8 × 10 6 × 79,000 × 99.54 × 10 3 5,000 2 = 32.32 × 10 15
= 1.0 × 35.77 × 10 15 + 32.32 × 10 15 = 82.49  kN·m

The maximum slenderness ratio to achieve the plastic strength (Cl. 5.12):

p λ b = 0.3

The elastic slenderness limit:

e λ b = 1 0.6 = 1.291
Slenderness ratio of the flexural member, λ b = M y M e = 1.17

Here, b < λb ≤ eλb, so:

ν = 3 2 + 2 3 × λ b e λ b 2 = 3 2 + 2 3 × 1.17 1.291 2 = 2.048
f b = 1 - 0.4 × λ b - p λ b e λ b - p λ b × F ν = 1 - 0.4 × 1.17 - 0.3 1.291 - 0.3 × 235 2.048 = 74.45  MPa
