Thanks you both for this great input.
I feel that there is a relationship of the slenderness ratio of the cross section to what is occuring. That the ratio is so high the compressive strength has dropped off considerably.
Thanks for the response! I will check out these links.
By "not completely theoretical" I am referring to a couple of articles I purchased from the Journal of Thermal Stresses. Theory were bogged down with theory and integrations to the point where I got very little practical information in...
I am looking for pracitical guides to analyzing an frp plate, otherwise knows as sheet molding compound. In this case the plate is partially fixed and temperature change is causing some out of plane distortion. Does anybody know of any resources that are not completely theoretical? I can...
AASHTO Chapter 10 lists allowable bearing capacities in terms of psi or ksi for A307, A325 and A490 for bearing type shear. Neither Chapter 10 nor Chapter 14 for bearings seems to indicate what is allowable for F1554 anchors. Using the AISC method would allow 0.17Fu for shear stress on...
Thanks Mike.
I couldn't find anything in a general search, but after wading through 33 pages of this forum, I found a similar question. I don't know how I missed it, but there is a small section in the AISC Design Guide that references how to treat tube and pipe. I will definitely check out...
I've seen threads for cantilevered columns, but all information I have come across such as AISC Design Guide 1 seems to be specific to wide flange columns. Also, I have found an article for pipe column base plates, but it was for gravity loading. Is there any sort of guide to design a base...
