2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is a beam column?
Think about what role it plays in a structure.
What material is used in the provided example?
Recall from the section what materials are specified.
Which material is used in the example calculations?
Consider the section’s mention of material properties.
True or False: Moment magnification decreases the moment acting on a beam.
Think about what happens to beams under lateral forces.
A beam column with a yield strength of 50 ksi is subjected to an applied moment of 100 k-ft. Calculate whether the beam is adequate if its section modulus is 200 in^3.
Always verify your moment capacities against the applied loads!
Analyze a situation where a beam column has to support increased lateral loads. Discuss how this affects its design and what calculations need to be adapted.
Consider the lateral-torsional buckling criteria!
