EK607
The crane girder must be designed as laterally unsupported beam carrying vertical and horizontal load at the level of the topflange.
EK380
In the beam-column connection the applied moment is transmitted by compression in the lower part of the beam and by the bolts in tension in the upper part. The compression […]
EK207
When a simply supported steel “I” beam bends under downward loads the extreme fibres at the top of the beam are in compression. This puts the top flange of the […]
EK206
Local buckling may be avoided by reducing the stress capacity of the section, and hence its bending moment capacity, if the slenderness of the web or the flange exceeds certain […]
EK64
Two failure modes can be identified for hanger-type connections: formation of plastic hinges in the tee flange or angle leg at cross-sections 1 and 2, and tensile failure of the […]
EK63
To minimize the effect of prying, the fasteners should be placed as close to the tee stem or outstanding angle leg as the wrench clearance will permit. In addition, the […]
EK61
Prying action results when flexural deformation occurs in the tee flange or angle leg of the connection.
