1005 – AISC G.1A - W-Shape in Strong Axis Shear

Description
An ASTM A992 W 24×62 beam with end shears of 48.000 and 145.000 kips from dead and live
load is shown in Figure 1. Verify the available shear strength of the beam selected based on LRFD
and ASD, see [1].

1 Nominal Shear Strength


Except for very few sections, which are listed in the User Note, AISC Specification Section G2.1(a) is
applicable to the I-shaped beams published in [1] for Fy = 50.000 ksi. The W-shape sections that
do not meet the criteria of AISC Specification Section G2.1(a) are indicated with subscript “v” in
Tables 1-1, 3-2 and 6-2.

Cv1 = 1

From AISC Specification Section G2.1, the area of the web Aw is determined as follows

Verification Example: 1005 – AISC G.1A - W-Shape in Strong Axis Shear

Aw = dtw = 10.200 in2 (1005 – 1)

From AISC Specification Section G2.1, the nominal shear strength is

Vn = 0.6 ⋅ Fy ⋅ Aw ⋅ Cv1 = 306.000 kips (1005 – 2)

2 Available Shear Strength


From AISC Specification Section G2.1, the available shear strength is

LRFD ASD

𝜙v = 1 𝛺v = 1.5
𝜙v Vn = 306.000 kips Vn /𝛺v = 204.000 kips

RFEM 5 Settings

• Modeled in RFEM 5.14.03


• Isotropic linear elastic model is used
