DESIGN OF CONTINUOUS<br />

COMPOSITE BEAM<br />

5.3.3 and 5.3.4 as appropriate for a segment adjacent to a plastic<br />

hinge where lLT < lLO.<br />

Further, the restraint detail can only be considered effective where<br />

sufficient shear studs are welded around the web stiffeners on the<br />

top flange of the beam to allow a load path for the restraining<br />

forces to develop.<br />

The distortional restraint provided by the web has been neglected.<br />

However, it is reasonable to take:<br />

n = 0.95; u = 0.88; vt = 0.9<br />

such that l max =<br />

(say 1500 mm)<br />

= 39.9 ¥ 39.7 = 1582 mm<br />

In accordance with Clause 4.3.5.3(d)-BS 5950-1:2000, the point<br />

of contraflexure for a composite beam (Db £ 550 mm ) may be<br />

assumed to be a virtual lateral restraint to the bottom flange when<br />

determining the segment length LLT<br />
