3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is buckling?
Think about what happens when you push too hard on a straw.
Name one mode of failure for beam columns.
Consider various stresses a beam can encounter.
What is the primary cause of beam column failure?
Think about what happens when a beam is subjected to excess weight.
True or False: Plastic moment capacity is equal to the elastic moment capacity.
Consider the definitions of both capacities.
A column with a nominal moment capacity of 600 k.ft is subjected to an axial load of 50 kips and a moment of 60 k.ft. Analyze if this column is adequate based on benchmark calculations.
Use the primary equations discussed for adequacy.
Evaluate how different load factors affect the moment capacities of a beam column under varying conditions. Provide a written analysis.
Consider the relationship between actual load and calculated safety factors.
