Publisher's Synopsis
The authors have considered all the complexities in the shapes of rolled steel sections and have determined the plastic modulus of steel sections for i-beams, channels, tee-sections, equal and unequal angle sections, i-beams with cover plates on both flanges and i-beams with channel section on the upper compression flange (for Gantry Girders). Also provided is the buckling class of the sections in bending and axial compression.Useful information about the properties of Indian standard straps, strips and sheets are tabulated for easy reference for design engineers. The book also provides ready references for shear strength and tensile strength of Grade M4.6 bolts of different sizes and minimum end distances and pitches in their connections. Fillet weld strength per mm length are also given.
