Allowable Shear Stress in Bridges Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Shear Stress for Flexural Members = Yield Strength of Steel*Shear Buckling Coefficient C/3
𝜏 = f_y*C/3
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Shear Stress for Flexural Members - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear stress for flexural members is force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress.
Yield Strength of Steel - (Measured in Pascal) - Yield strength of steel is the level of stress that corresponds to the yield point.
Shear Buckling Coefficient C - Shear buckling coefficient C is geometrical constant depends on h/tw ratio.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Yield Strength of Steel: 250 Megapascal --> 250000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Shear Buckling Coefficient C: 0.9 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

𝜏 = f_y*C/3 --> 250000000*0.9/3

Evaluating ... ...

𝜏 = 75000000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

75000000 Pascal -->75 Megapascal (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

75 Megapascal <-- Shear Stress for Flexural Members

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
