ENCE 710 Design of Steel Structures VI. Plate Girders C. C. Fu, Ph.D., P.E. Civil and Environmental Engineering Department University of Maryland
Introduction Following subjects are covered: • Moment strength • Shear strength • Intermediate transverse stiffener • Bearing stiffener Reading: • Chapters 11 of Salmon & Johnson • AISC LRFD Specification Chapters B (Design Requirements) and F (Design of Members for Flexure) and G (Design of Members for Shear)
Beam vs Plate Girder Plate Girder: A deep beam “Slender” web problems: 1.Web buckling 2. Buckling of the compression flange due to inadequate stiffness of the web 3. Buckling due to shear (for doubly symmetric I-shaped sections)
Vertical Buckling (the compression flange) • Lateral buckling • Torsional buckling • Vertical buckling
AISC Maximum Web h/tw • Stiffened girder (for a/h ≤ 1.5) h/tw = 11.7 √E/Fy (AISC-F13.3) • Stiffened girder (for a/h > 1.5) h/tw ≤ 0.42E/Fy (AISC-F13.4) (S & J Table 11.3.1) • Unstiffened girder h/tw ≤ 260
AISC Nominal Moment Strength • If h/tw ≤ 5.70√E/Fy – AISC Table B4.1 treated as rolled beams • If h/tw > 5.70√E/Fy • Case 1 – Compression flange yielding Mn = RpgFySxc (F5-1) • Case 2 – Lateral-Torsional Buckling Mn = RpgFcrSxc (F5-2) (a) Lp < Lb ≤ Lr (F5-3) (b) Lb > Lr (F5-4, 5, 6) (for WLB) aw = ratio of web area to compression flange area ( ≤10) hc = 2 x centroid to inside face of the compression flange
AISC Nominal Moment Strength(cont.) • Case 3 - Compression flange local buckling Mn = RpgFcrSxc (F5-7) Fcr a. λ ≤ λp: Fcr = Fy b. λ p < λ ≤ λr : (F5-8) c. λ > λr : (F5-9) kc = 4/√(h/tw) and 0.35 ≤ kc ≤ 0.763 • Case 4 – Tension-flange yielding (Sxt<Sxc) Mn = RptFySxt (F5-10)
Limit States in Flexure for plate girder with slender web (AISC-F5)
AISC Nominal Shear Strength • If h/tw ≤ 1.10 √(kvE/Fy) - Vn = 0.6 AwFy same as rolled beam (G3-1) • If h/tw > 1.10 √(kvE/Fy) (G3-2) (S & J Figs. 11.8.1 & 11.8.2) Except (1) end panel (2) a/h > 3 or a/h > [260/(h/tw)]2
AISC Nominal Shear Strength(cont.) • For 1.10 √(kvE/Fy) ≤ h/tw ≤ 1.37 √(kvE/Fy) Cv = 1.10 √(kvE/Fy) / (h/tw) (G2-4) • For h/tw > 1.37 √(kvE/Fy) Cv = 1.51 kvE/[(h/tw)2Fy] (G2-5) kv = 5 + 5/(a/h)2 if a/h ≤ 3 and [260/(h/tw)]2 5 otherwise (S & J Fig. 11.8.3)

Intermediate Transverse Stiffeners Intermediate Transverse Stiffener (not required if h/tw ≤ 2.45√E/Fy) (1) Stiffness Criterion • Ist ≥ jatw3 (G2-6) where j = 2.5/(a/h)2 – 2 ≥ 0.5 (2) Strength Criterion • Ast > Fy/Fyst (0.15 Dshtw (1 – Cv) Vu/ΦvVn – 18 tw2)≤0 (G3-3)
