ANALYSIS & DESIGN OF LATERALLY SUPPORTED STEEL BEAM

********
Data:
Steel Beam Span
: 5.0m
Support condition
: Simply supported
Yield stress of Steel fy : 250N/mm2
Allowable Bending stress in compression & Tension : 0.66 fy
Average shear stress
: 0.40 fy
Manual Design : (Working Stress Method)
1. Uniformly distributed load including self weight =50KN/m
2. Calculation of Bending Moment: M=wl2/8= 50 x 52 /8= 156.25 KN.m
Maximum Shear Force =wl/2= 50 x 5/2= 125KN
3. Modulus of section required Z = M/ bct=156.25 x 106/165=946970mm3
or 946.97cm3
Let us try ISMB 400 from SP 6 Z provided=1022.9 cm3 > 946.97cm3
Properties of ISMB 400 D=400mm Thickness of flange T=16mm
t= thickness of web=8.9mm Ixx=2045804 cm4 Zxx=1022.9 cm3
h2=32.8 mm a
4. Check for shear :
bd= V/D t= 125 x 103/400 x 8.9=35.11 N/mm2 < 0.40 fy=100N/mm2
Ok.
5. Check for Deflection:
dall.= span/325=5000/325=15.38mm
dcal.= (5/384) x wl4/EI =(5/384) x 50 x (5 x 103)/(2x105 x 20458.4 x 104)
=9.94 mm < 15.38mm Hence Ok.
6. Check for crippling:
Assume a bearing length of 100mm.
p= Reaction/(b +h2 3) t= 125 x 103/ (100 +32.8 3) 8.9=89.56 N/mm2

< 0.75 fy =187.5 N/mm2 Ok.
