  • Designing the required size of a steel beam for a propped cantilever condition. Design follows the requirements of the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) We take a look at Limit states such as yielding and lateral torsional buckling as well as determining compaction criteria of the web and flanges

    Really well done in showing the step by step process of solving the problem. I do have a question, however. When solving for shear you got 112.5 K. That's .9*Fy*Aw*Cv1, but my understanding was you're supposed to use the 0.6 to make it 0.6*1.0(you corrected this)*Fy*Aw*Cv1 which would be 75 kips. Obviously it still passes, but I'm wondering if I'm missing something here. Thanks!

      Scotty ausman your absolutely correct! nice catch. I have shown the equation properly but did not multiply by the 0.6. 75k is the correct shear capacity

      Very minor correction: In the (Aw= d*tw) you chose tw as .250 inch which would be for W10*19. W10*15's tw is .230 in which ultimately gives shear capacity at 62 kips. Thank you for doing this. I am trying to get back into steel design and I really appreciate what you're doing.

    trying to teach myself engineering. this is a great video been wrapping my brain around steel calculations and I have a steel manual aswell so it works out really well u teaching me like this i can flip threw mine and do the same as you compared to most videos... I start to get confused by all the variables in the equations is there anywhere in the steel manual that tells me what the variables stand for? subscribed!

    Sir today i have to design a 6 meter cantilever I section for scaffold structure nearly have to take 10 KN at the free end. But the section i got is much bigger, like 457x19... if i tie it with rope at a distance of 1 m from free end, what you will think, it will be a good choice?

    sir how much load can a *16mm TMT Bar* can hold safely? My weight is 75 KGs, can I hang safely in it? I wanna make a bar for *pull-up* exercise, plz reply...

    • @Kestava_Engineering
      @Kestava_Engineering  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      country lover - if the bar is made of 36ksi grade steel and it is a solid bar (not a pipe) the bar is sufficient for you to use as a pull up bar. I recommend the bar not be more than 1.2m long and that you properly secure the bar at the ends into a strong support system or walls.

    Hey Rich, I noticed bf/2tf is 7.41 for w10x15 in the property tables. Just wondering why the length to thickness ratio from table B4.1b calls for b/t and not bf/2tf? You are correct since I have it scratched into my steel manual from coolage, but no idea why b/t is assumed bf/2tf. I also have a scratched in note saying lambda = bf/2tf = b/t in the margins of table B4.1b in case that offers any insight. I just found eqn F3-2 on pg 16.1-49 defines lambda as bf/2tf but nothing further linking lambda to b/t in table B4.1b... wildly unclear to me! Cool job on your videos my man! You have my support, Team Kestava woot woot! -JD

    • @Kestava_Engineering
      @Kestava_Engineering  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      HI! - if you look at the definition of b in tables B4.1 - b is actually 1/2 of bf. thats why they show bf/2tf in the properties section
