RESTRAINED BEAMS - UERJ

RESTRAINED BEAMS SUMMARY: BEAMS may often be designed on basis of bending moment resistance. A variety of section shapes are available for BEAMS , choice depends on local and span. Stiffness under serviceability loads is an important consideration. BEAMS that are unable to move laterally are termed RESTRAINED . Moment resistance is dependent on section classification. Co-existent shear forces below 50% of the plastic shear resistance do not affect moment resistance. OBJECTIVES: Explain the procedures used to design RESTRAINED BEAMS . Design a beam for bending and shear resistance. Check a beam for compliance with serviceability criteria. Describe how to reduce the beam bending resistance to allow for high shear loads.

A variety of section shapes and beams types may be used depending on the magnitude of loading and the span, Table 1 Table 1 - Typical beam types for various applications. Beam Type Span Range (m) Notes 0. Angles 3 - 6 used for roof purlins, sheeting rails, etc., where only light loads have to be carried. 1.
