Shear Capacity for Web Slenderness less than Alpha Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Shear Capacity = 0.54*Specified Minimum Yield Stress*Web Area
V_u = 0.54*F_yw*A_w
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Shear Capacity - (Measured in Newton) - Shear Capacity is the shear strength of a material or component against the type of yield or structural failure when the material or component fails in shear.
Specified Minimum Yield Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Specified Minimum Yield Stress represents the minimum tensile stress or yield stress required by the flexural member, say, web.
Web Area - (Measured in Square Meter) - Web Area is the area of web section in the flexural member.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specified Minimum Yield Stress: 139 Megapascal --> 139000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Web Area: 85 Square Millimeter --> 8.5E-05 Square Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V_u = 0.54*F_yw*A_w --> 0.54*139000000*8.5E-05

Evaluating ... ...

V_u = 6380.1

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6380.1 Newton -->6.3801 Kilonewton (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

6.3801 Kilonewton <-- Shear Capacity

Shear Capacity if Web Slenderness is between 1 and 1.25 alpha

Go Shear Capacity = (0.54*Specified Minimum Yield Stress*Web Area*Separation Ratio)/(Height of Web/Web Thickness)

Shear Capacity if Web Slenderness is greater than 1.25 alpha

Go Shear Capacity = (23760*Effective Length Factor*Web Area)/(Height of Web/Web Thickness)^2

Shear Capacity for Web Slenderness less than Alpha

Go Shear Capacity = 0.54*Specified Minimum Yield Stress*Web Area

Shear Capacity for Web Slenderness less than Alpha Formula

Shear Capacity = 0.54*Specified Minimum Yield Stress*Web Area
V_u = 0.54*F_yw*A_w

What do you mean by LRFD (Load Resistance Factor Design)?

The LRFD is a probability-based limit state design procedure. In its development, both load effects and resistance were treated as random variables. Their variabilities and uncertainties were represented by frequency distribution curves. The LRFD is based on the limit state design concept. A limit state is defined as a condition in which a structure or structural component becomes unsafe or unsuitable for its intended function.

What is Slenderness Ratio?

The Slenderness Ratio or simply slenderness is an aspect ratio, the quotient between the height and the width of the considered section. In structural engineering, slenderness is a measure of the propensity of a column to buckle.
