Depth to Thickness Ratio of Girder with Transverse Stiffeners Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth to Thickness Ratio = 2000/sqrt(Yield Stress of Steel)
ht = 2000/sqrt(F_y)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 2 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Depth to Thickness Ratio - Depth to Thickness Ratio is the ratio between the depth of the structure to its thickness.
Yield Stress of Steel - (Measured in Megapascal) - Yield Stress of Steel is the stress at which the material begins to deform plastically, meaning it will not return to its original shape when the applied force is removed.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Yield Stress of Steel: 250 Megapascal --> 250 Megapascal No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ht = 2000/sqrt(F_y) --> 2000/sqrt(250)

Evaluating ... ...

ht = 126.491106406735

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

126.491106406735 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

126.491106406735 ≈ 126.4911 <-- Depth to Thickness Ratio

What are Transverse Stiffeners?

Stiffeners are secondary plates or sections which are attached to beam webs or flanges to stiffen them against out of plane deformations. Transverse web stiffeners are most common which is vertical stiffeners. They are used to increase shear capacity in a beam web.

FAQ

What is Depth to Thickness Ratio of Girder with Transverse Stiffeners?

The Depth to Thickness Ratio of Girder with Transverse Stiffeners formula is defined as the ratio of girder size if the transverse (vertical) stiffeners are spaced not more than 1.5 times the girder depth and is represented as ht = 2000/sqrt(F_y) or Depth to Thickness Ratio = 2000/sqrt(Yield Stress of Steel). Yield Stress of Steel is the stress at which the material begins to deform plastically, meaning it will not return to its original shape when the applied force is removed.

How to calculate Depth to Thickness Ratio of Girder with Transverse Stiffeners?

The Depth to Thickness Ratio of Girder with Transverse Stiffeners formula is defined as the ratio of girder size if the transverse (vertical) stiffeners are spaced not more than 1.5 times the girder depth is calculated using Depth to Thickness Ratio = 2000/sqrt(Yield Stress of Steel). To calculate Depth to Thickness Ratio of Girder with Transverse Stiffeners, you need Yield Stress of Steel (F_y). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Yield Stress of Steel and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Depth to Thickness Ratio?

In this formula, Depth to Thickness Ratio uses Yield Stress of Steel. We can use 1 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Depth to Thickness Ratio = 14000/sqrt(Yield Stress of Steel*(Yield Stress of Steel+16.5))
