      This could be found, if you want to GO AROUND all the math,by looking it up in an allowable load chart..l simply bought an ebay book.they were printed many years.titke is STEELconstruction manual of american institue.of steel construction...the problem for gantries,however ,is you will not be loading it evenly..so there needs to be an adjustment,also laid out in the book.charts are for "uniform"loads,like this vid is a concrete floor...everything is in kips ...not tons.akip is 1000 lb........h

    Yet another great video.
    Would be great to see a calculation for the laminated cross section, calculating the shear in each layer to determine the glue capacity.
    Or even laminated glass beam.
    Or glass balustrade calculation according to EN 16612.
    Or Raft foundation.
    Or wind load calculation for the courtyard of a tall building.

    Thank you for your detailed explanation.
    I have a question, from 04:20-06:15 you have determined sectional classification for flange and web.
    In both cases you have used tf > 16mm, and accordingly used fy value as 345 N/mm^2 to determine the coefficient for sectional classification (epsilon).
    I was wondering, why not calculate epsilon for flange and web separately, using tw & tf with respective fy values?

    Was working on a problem similar to this some days ago, doesn't the maximum moment occur at a diff location from the middle of the beam because of the extra applied load at the middle ? Please I need clarifications ✌

    • @LvPatriot1
      @LvPatriot1 2 роки тому

      I think that you need to look for the BMD(bending moment diagrams) and you will get your answer.

    Design a 6 meter cantilever steel beam having a point load of 10 KN at the free end according to British standard.. thanks

    • @michaelacheampong2869
      @michaelacheampong2869 2 роки тому

      The Moment = PL (hogging moment at the support) is M = 6m x 10kN= 60kNm , then Sxx (Plastic Modulus) = 60x 10^6 /275=218.1818 x 10^3 mm3 =218cm3 .Now use this modulus to check the steel table and choose your member. So from the table U can choose 203 x 133 x 25kg/m (258cm3) or 254 x 102 x 22kg/m (259cm3). of these two sections the second one(254 x 102 x 22kg/m) is better becuase it is deeper and lighter i.e. 22kg/m vs 25kg/m of the first section .
