1 G-1 CHAPTER G DESIGN OF MEMBERS FOR SHEAR INTRODUCTION This chapter covers ebs of singly or doubly symmetric members subject to shear in the plane of the eb, single angles, HSS sections, and shear in the eak direction of singly or doubly symmetric shapes. Most of the formulas from this chapter are illustrated by example. Tables for all standard ASTM A99 W-shapes and ASTM A36 channels are included in the Manual. In the tables, here applicable, and shear information is presented side-by-side for quick selection, design and verification. shear strengths have been increased slightly over those in the previous Specification for members not subject to shear buckling. strengths are essentially identical to those in the previous Specification. and ill produce identical designs for the case here the live load effect is approximately three times the dead load effect. G1. GENERAL PROVISIONS The design shear strength, φ v V n, and the alloable shear strength, V n /Ω v are determined as follos: V n = nominal shear strength based on shear yielding or shear buckling () (). Exception: For all current ASTM A6, W, S, and HP shapes except W44 30, W40 149, W36 135, W33 118, W30 90, W4 55, W16 6, and W1 14 for F y = 50 ksi: φ v = 1.00 () Ω v = 1.50 (). Section G does not utilize tension field action. Section G3 specifically addresses the use tension field action. Strong axis shear values are tabulated for W-shapes in Manual Tables 3- and 3-6, for S-shapes in Manual Table 3-7, for C-shapes in Manual Table 3-8 and for MC-shapes in Manual Table 3-9. Weak axis shear values for W- shapes, S-shapes, C-shapes and MC-shapes and shear values for angles, rectangular HSS and box members, and round HSS are not tabulated. G. MEMBERS WITH UNSTIFFENED OR STIFFENED WEBS As indicated in the User Note of this section, virtually all W, S and HP shapes are not subject to shear buckling and are also eligible for the more liberal safety and resistance factors, φ v = 1.00 () and Ω v = 1.50 (). This is presented in Example G.1 for a W-shape. A channel shear strength design is presented in Example G.. G3. TENSION FIELD ACTION A built-up girder ith a thin eb and vertical stiffeners is presented in Example G.8. G4. SINGLE ANGLES Rolled angles are typically made from ASTM A36 steel. All single angles listed in the Manual have a C v =1.0. A single angle example is illustrated in Example G.3.

2 G- G5. RECTANGULAR HSS AND BOX MEMBERS The shear height, h, is taken as the clear distance beteen the radii. If the corner radii are unknon, the outside radius is taken as 3 times the design thickness. An HSS example is provide in Example G.4. G6. ROUND HSS For all Round HSS and Pipes of ordinary length listed in the Manual, F cr can be taken as 0.6F y in Specification Equation G6-1. A round HSS example is illustrated in Example G.5. G7. WEAK AXIS SHEAR IS SINGLE AND DOUBLY SYMMETRIC SHAPES For a eak axis shear example see Example G.6 and Example G.7. G8. BEAMS AND GIRDERS WITH WEB OPENINGS For a beam and girder ith eb openings example see AISC Design Guide.

13 G-13 Example G.8a Built-up Plate Girder ith Transverse Stiffeners Given: A built up ASTM A36 I-shaped girder spanning 56 ft. has a uniformly distributed dead load of 0.9 klf and a live load of.74 klf in the strong direction. The girder is 36 in. tall ith 1 in. 1½ in. flanges and a c in. eb. Determine if the member has sufficient available shear strength to support the end shear, ithout and ith tension field action. Use transverse stiffeners, as required. User note: This built-up girder as purposely selected ith a thin eb in order to illustrate the design of transverse stiffeners. A more conventionally proportioned plate girder ould have at least a ½ in. eb and slightly smaller flanges. Solution: Material Properties: Built-up girder ASTM A36 F y = 36 ksi F u = 58 ksi Manual Table -3 Geometric Properties: Built-up girder t = in. d = 36.0 in. b ft = b fc = 1.0 in. t f = 1.50 in. h = 33.0 in. Calculate the required shear strength at the support R u =[1.(0.9 klf) + 1.6(.74 klf)](8.0 ft) = 154 kips R a = (0.9 klf +.74 klf)(8.0 ft) = 10 kips Determine if stiffeners are required A = dt = (36.0 in.)(0.313 in.) = 11.3 in. h/t = 33.0 in. / in. = < 60 Therefore, k v = 5 Section G.1b 1.37 ke v / F y = (9,000 ksi) /(36 ksi) = > 86.9 therefore, use Specification Eqn. G-5 to calculate C v

14 G Ekv C v = ( h/ t ) F = 1.51(9, 000 ksi)(5) = (105) (36 ksi) y Eqn. G-5 Calculate V n V n = 0.6F y A C v = 0.6(36 ksi)(11.3 in. )(0.547) = 134 kips Eqn. G-1 Check the available shear strength ithout stiffeners φ v V n = 0.90(134 kips) = 10 kips 10 kips < 154 kips not o.k. Therefore, stiffeners are required. V n /Ω v = 134 kips / 1.67 = 80.0 kips 80.0 kips < 10 kips not o.k. Therefore, stiffeners are required. Manual Tables 3-16a and 3-16b can be used to select stiffener spacings needed to develop the required stress in the eb. Limits on the Use of Tension Field Action: Section G3.1 Consideration of tension field action is not permitted if any of the folloing are true: a) end panels in all members ith transverse stiffeners b) members hen a/h exceeds 3.0 or [60/(h/t )] c) A /(A fc +A ft ) >.5 d) h/b fc or h/b ft > 6.0 Select stiffener spacing for end panel Tension field action is not permitted for end panels, therefore use Table 3-16a. Use V u =φ v V n to determine the required stress in the eb by dividing by the eb area Use V a = V n /Ω v to determine the required stress in the eb by dividing by the eb area φvv A n V = u A = 154 kips 11.3 in. = 13.6 ksi Ω V v n A V = a A = 10 kips 11.3 in. = 9.03 ksi Use Table 3-16a from the Manual to select the required stiffener ratio a/h based on the h/t ratio φvvn of the girder and the required stress. Interpolate and follo an available stress curve, = A Vn 13.6 ksi for, = 9.03 ksi for, until it intersects the horizontal line for a h/t ΩvA value of 105. Project don from this intersection and take the maximum a/h value of 1.80 from the axis across the bottom. Since h = 33.0 in., stiffeners are required at (1.80)(33.0 in.) = 59.4 in. maximum. Therefore, use 59.0 in. Manual Table 3-16a Select stiffener spacing for the second panel Tension field action is alloed, but not required, since the second panel is not an end panel. Section G3.1

15 G-15 Calculate the required shear strength at the start of the second panel, 59 in. from end V u [ ] 59.0 in. 1.(0.9klf)+1.6(.74klf) = 154k 1 in./ft = 17 kips 59.0 in. Va = 10 k - (0.9klf +.74klf) 1 in./ft = 84.0 kips Check the available shear strength ithout stiffeners From previous calculation φ v V n = 0.90(134 kips) = 10 kips 10 kips < 17 kips not o.k. Therefore additional stiffeners are required. Use V u =φ v V n to determine the required stress in the eb by dividing by the eb area From previous calculation V n /Ω v = 134 kips / 1.67 = 80.0 kips 80.0 kips < 84.0 kips not o.k. Therefore additional stiffeners are required. Use V a = V n /Ω v to determine the required stress in the eb by dividing by the eb area φvv A n V = u A = 17 kips 11.3in. = 11. ksi V v n Ω A V = a A = 84.0 kips 11.3 in. = 7.43 ksi Use Table 3-16b from the Manual to select the required stiffener a/h ratio based on the h/t ratio of the girder and the required stress. Interpolate and follo an available stress curve, φvvn Vn = 11. ksi for, = 7.43 ksi for, until it intersects the horizontal line for A ΩvA a h/t value of 105. Because the available stress does not intersect the h/t value of 105, the maximum value of 3.0 for a/h may be used. Since h = 33.0 in., an additional stiffener is required at (3.0)(33.0 in.) = 99.0 in. maximum from the previous one. Manual Table 3-16b Select stiffener spacing for the second panel Tension field action is alloed, but not required, since the next panel is not an end panel. Section G3.1 Calculate the required shear strength at the start of the third pane, 158 in. from end V u = 154 kips in. - [1.(0.90 klf) + 1.6(.74 klf)] 1 in./ft = 81.7 kips V a = 10 kips in. - (0.90 klf +.74 klf) 1 in./ft = 53.8 kips

16 G-16 Check the available shear strength ithout stiffeners From previous calculation φ v V n = 0.90(134 kips) = 10 kips 10 kips > 81.7 kips o.k. Therefore additional stiffeners are not required. From previous calculation V n /Ω v = 134 kips / 1.67 = 80.0 kips 80.0 kips > 53.8 kips o.k. Therefore additional stiffeners are not required. The four Available Shear Stress tables, Manual Tables 3-16a, 3-16b, 3-17a and 3-17b, are useful because they permit a direct solution for the required stiffener spacing. Alternatively, you can select a stiffener spacing and check the resulting strength, although this process is likely to be iterative. In the proof belo, the stiffener spacings that ere selected from the charts in the example above are used. Manual Table 3-16

17 G-17 Example G.8b Built-up Plate Girder ith Transverse Stiffeners The stiffener spacings from Example G.8a, hich ere easily determined from the tabulated values of the Steel Construction Manual, are verified belo by directly applying the provisions of the Specification.
