2 Proportioning the Section Goals Satisfy limit states Strength Serviceability Minimum cost assume cost proportional to weight of steel but remember that least-weight may not provide the most cost effective design!

7 AASHTO Cross Sectional Limits Similar to AISC eq. F13- Not stable if outside limit

8 Rules of Thumb Flange Width b f bf d 0. to 0.3 d deep section shallow section

9 Optimum Depth (another option) Based on minimizing weight (i.e. gross cross-sectional area), supposing no depth restriction f is average stress on flange (i.e. F cr ) b w is an assumed constant h/t b w of 30 for optimum proportion A36 C 1 is a factor to account for reducing flange size at regions of lower moment C is factor to account for reducing web thickness at regions of reduced shear

10 Optimum Depth, cont d h 3 f 3MC (3C 1 bw C 1 ) Suppose C 1 = C = 1 (i.e. no section reduction in regions of lower stress) h 3 3M bw f

11 Rules of Thumb Flange Area b f A f M u /f d h A w C A f M fh A 6 w T Average stress on flange S x / h

12 Rules of Thumb Plate dimensions Plate widths increments Stiffener spacing 3 multiples

13 Rules of Thumb Plate thickness Increments (inches) Range (inches) 1/16 t 9/16 1/8 5/8 t 1-1/ 1/4 t > 1-1/

14 Rules of Thumb Flange Plates, p. 1 Based on minimum volume (weight) and A f equation used earlier L/ M max L Groove weld A f 1 1 A f A f1 A f

15 Rules of Thumb Flange Plates, p. L/3 L Groove weld M max A f A f A f1 A f Unless save lbs of material, added cost of weld makes flange plate transition uneconomical (Salmon et al., Steel Structures, 5 th ed.)

16 Other flange plate recommendations If concerned about LTB, keep b f /t f at about the l p value in maximum moment regions Could then reduce flange thickness in low moment regions (reduce thickness instead of width) No LTB? Reduce width if desired slight advantage in fatigue strength Transition slope should be less than 1 in -1/ for either width or thickness change 1 in 4 to 1 in 1 recommended for change in width

18 Weld of flange to web Must provide for factored horizontal shear flow X X shear Vu Q flow Ix (kips/in) 1 st moment of area of flange about neutral axis

19 Weld of flange to web, p. X X DOTs typically require SAW for these welds more thermally efficient More uniform weld cross section and strength no stops/starts and other irregularities that concentrate stress SMAW uses stick electrodes of limited length and diameter

20

21 Rules of Thumb Web Reasonable range for web stress f V A n w 1 to16 ksi < 9 ksi? May be able to use thinner web Practical minimum web thickness (t w ) 5/16

22 Design Aids Shear, Stiffeners Tables 3-16a, 3-17a (without TFA) 36 ksi and 50 ksi steel Starting on AISC Manual p Tables 3-16b, 3-17b (with TFA) f v V n /A w graphed as a function of h/t w and a/h NOTE: here, A w = d t w (AISC G)

23 ---- means exceeded practical limit on stiffener spacing a h 60 h tw a/h > 3.0 k v = 5.0

24 Corresponds approximately to limit for vertical flange buckling

25 Plate Girder Design Example Consider a simply supported plate girder that carries the factored uniform load and two concentrated loads as shown. Design a doubly symmetric, non-hybrid girder with A36 steel. Assume that lateral support is provided at the ends and at the concentrated loads. 1.D + 1.6L load combination controls. Factored loads shown. L/360 deflection limit (total service load). 150 k 150 k 5 k/ft A B C D 4' 4' 4' 330 k Lateral Support Lateral Support
