Effective Width of Flange of the different section:
Effective Width of Flange |
||
Monolithic Beams |
T - Beams |
\({b_f} = {b_w} + \frac{{{l_o}}}{6} + 6{d_f}\) |
L - Beams |
\({b_f} = {b_w} + 0.5\left( {\frac{{{l_o}}}{6} + 6{d_f}} \right)\) |
|
Isolated Beams |
T - Beams |
\({b_f} = {b_w} + \frac{{{l_o}}}{{\frac{{{l_o}}}{b} + 4}}\) |
L - Beams |
\({b_f} = {b_w} + \frac{{0.5 \times {l_o}}}{{\frac{{{l_o}}}{b} + 4}}\) |
Where,
bf = Effective width of flange
lo = Distance between points of zero moments in the beam
bw = Breadth of the web
df = Thickness of the flange
b = Actual width of the flange
Explanation:
Given,
lo = 6m = 6000mm, b = 1000mm, bw = 300mm,
Walkway is the case of isolated T-Beam. Then,
\({b_f} = {b_w} + \frac{{{l_o}}}{{\frac{{{l_o}}}{b} + 4}}\)
\({{\bf{b}}_{\bf{f}}} = 300 + \frac{{6000}}{{\frac{{6000}}{{1000}} + 4}}\)
bf = 300 + 600 = 900mm
