Question: A beam end experiences a design shear force V * * as shown in Fig. 1 . The design shear force V * * is
A beam end experiences a design shear force as shown in Fig. The design shear force is equal to
where is the overall depth of the supported beam, is the thickness of its web and is the yield stress of the supported beam. The sections to be analysed are given in the table below.
Figure Web Side Plate Connection
For your sections, design an appropriate web side plate connection, similar to that shown in Figure You will need to consider a number of factors, including the size of the weld between the supporting member and the web side plate, the size of the web side plate itself, and the number, size and arrangement single or double columns of bolts used to join the web side plate to the supported member.
The steel used in both the supported and supporting members is Grade and that used in the web side plate is Grade As the length of the supported member is not given, hence the Design Check No Beam rotation check is not required.
Be sure to include all appropriate calculations and to include a reasonably "nice", largesize say half an A page or so drawing of the connection you have designed. Also include a table with the values of the various failure modes.
