STRESS ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF FABRICATED ASYMMETRICAL SECTIONS

The various stress components induced in a uniform fabricated member having an asymmetrical section are examined. Particular emphasis has been placed on the flexural warping stresses induced by torsional loading. Various cases of support conditions are considered. The warping stresses are calculated using the sectorial properties of the section. The effect on warping stresses of support conditions and scantlings of section are examined. A design criterion based on the provision of adequate strength and stability is suggested. A numerical example is given to illustrate the calculation procedure.
