EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION

Design a simply supported composite beam with 10m span shown (dotted line) in the
figure below. The thickness of slab is 125 mm. The floor is to carry an imposed load
of 3.0 kN/m2, partition load of 1.5 kN/m2 and a floor finish load of 0.5 kN/m2.

 Steel and Concrete Stresses under Service Loads

RESULTS COMPARISON

The problem data is referenced from Problem 1 in Chapter 22 of the INSDAG

Teaching Materials, but the calculations presented here are totally separate from
the original ones because these refer to the 1985 Indian steel design code.

Design for Ultimate Shear Strength:

Design Shear:
The design shear is equal to the end reactions:
wfactored = 1.5 • (3.0 • 3 + 0.702 + 0.5 • 3 + 1.5 • 3 + 3.0 • 3.0) = 37.053 kN/m

Shear Strength:
The beam frames into a girder with an ISLB600 section whose top flange thickness is
15.5 mm, which results in the beam being coped 20.5 mm on the top at the supports.
As a result, the shear area is equal to:

Av = (d − Copetop ) • t w = (450 − 20.5) • 9.4 = 4, 037.3 mm 2

The shear strength is equal to:

means some of the concrete is in tension. Through an iterative process, omitted here,
in which any concrete in tension is ignored, the location of the elastic neutral axis is
computed as 235.25 mm above the center of the steel section, and the concrete is in
compression over a depth of 225 + 125 – 235.25 = 114.75 mm
