106 WEB-TAPERED MEMBERS [App. F3.1.75B =1.0 + 0.25 g(A-F3-11)where =(d L -d o )/d o is calculated for the unbraced length adjacent to the point ofzero bending stress.5. Design Shear StrengthThe design shear strength of tapered flexural members shall be determined inaccordance with Section F2.6. Combined Flexure and Axial ForceFor tapered members with a single web taper subject to compression and bendingabout the major axis, Equation H1-1 applies, with the following modifications. P nand P ex shall be determined for the properties of the smaller end, using appropriateeffective length factors. M nx , M u , and M px shall be determined for the larger end; M nx= (5/3)S x F b , where S x is the elastic section modulus of the larger end, and F bg is thedesign flexural stress of tapered members. C mx is replaced by C m , determined as follows:(a) When the member is subjected to end moments which cause single curvaturebending and approximately equal computed moments at the ends:Cæ P ö æ P öuum¢ = 1.0 + 0.1ç+ 0.3èfbP÷exø çèfbP÷exø2(A-F3-12)(b) When the computed bending moment at the smaller end of the unbraced lengthis equal to zero:Cæ P ö æ P öuum¢ = 1.0 - 0.9ç+ 0.6èfbP÷exø çèfbP÷exø2(A-F3-13)When the effective slenderness parameter l eff 1.5 and combined stress is checkedincrementally along the length, the actual area and the actual section modulus at thesection under investigation is permitted to be used.<strong>LRFD</strong> Specification for Structural Steel Buildings, December 27, 1999AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF STEEL CONSTRUCTION
