Steel structures are widely used these days for many purposes, including rapid construction, ease of erection, and controlled quality of fabrication.
The design of steel structures (and any structural system) is composed of four stages, which are: the choosing of a statical system, the determination of loads, the analysis process, and the design process.
By putting the loads on the chosen statical system, we get the straining action in the members of the statical system; by the different analysis methods, these straining actions are several, such as tension, compression, flexure, shear, and torsion.
In this course, we will study the design of steel members subject to shear, which exists in many steel structures, such as floor beams, roof purlins, crane beams, and plate girders.
This course is the fourth course of a series related to the design of members. All of these courses are independent and do not require any prerequisites. The following is the list of related courses:
2. Design of Steel Compression Members per AISC360-16
3. Design of Steel Flexure Members per AISC360-16
4. Design of Steel Members Subject to Shear per AISC360-16
5. Design of Steel Members subject to Combined Stresses per AISC360-16
6. Design of Steel Members subject to Torsion per AISC360-16
This course involves a deep study on the design of steel tension members; according to AISC360-16-Chapter G, all course equations are presented using ASD and LRFD methods.
