Tentative Load And Resistance Factor Design Criteria For Steel Beam-Columns, M. K. Ravindra, Theodore V. Galambos Oct 1974

Tentative Load And Resistance Factor Design Criteria For Steel Beam-Columns, M. K. Ravindra, Theodore V. Galambos

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

Nominal design equations and reai•tance factors are developed for steel beam-columns as part of Load and Resistance Factor Design criteria for steel buildings. The resistance factors are derived from principles of first-order probability theory using calibration to present designs.


Design Of I-Shaped Beams And Columns With Diaphragm Bracing, S. J. Errera, T. V. S. R. Apparao Jul 1974

Design Of I-Shaped Beams And Columns With Diaphragm Bracing, S. J. Errera, T. V. S. R. Apparao

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

Cold-formed steel panels often are used as wall sheathing, roof decking or floor decking in steel framed buildings or pre-engineered metal buildings. Diaphragms formed by interconnecting these panels have considerable in-plane shear resistance, and can be utilized as bracing against buckling for individual members of a steel frame. For wall columns the diaphragm may be either directly attached or connected to girts which in turn are connected to the columns. A procedure is presented for the design of I-section beams and columns with diaphragm or diaphragm-girt bracing. The procedure is based on the ultimate load capacity of fully braced members, …

One of the purposes of the Council is to maintain a forum where problems related to the design and behavior of columns and other compression elements in metal structures can be presented for evaluation and discussion. The Annual Technical Session provides opportunity to carry out this function.Summaries of the technical papers, the panel discussion, and minutes of the business meeting are recorded in the following pages. The attendance list is also included.
