Absolute Value of Maximum Moment in Unbraced Beam Segment Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Moment = (Bending Moment Coefficient*((3*Moment at Quarter Point)+(4*Moment at Centerline)+(3*Moment at Three-quarter Point)))/(12.5-(Bending Moment Coefficient*2.5))
M'max = (M_coeff*((3*M_A)+(4*M_B)+(3*M_C)))/(12.5-(M_coeff*2.5))
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Maximum Moment - (Measured in Newton Meter) - The maximum Moment is the absolute value of the maximum moment in the unbraced beam segment.
Bending Moment Coefficient - (Measured in Newton Meter) - The Bending Moment coefficient of moments can be calculated by dividing the support moments by the span length.
Moment at Quarter Point - (Measured in Newton Meter) - The moment at Quarter Point is the absolute value of the moment at the quarter point of the unbraced beam segment.
Moment at Centerline - (Measured in Newton Meter) - The moment at Centerline is the absolute value of moment at the centerline of the unbraced beam segment.
Moment at Three-quarter Point - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Moment at Three-quarter Point is the absolute value of moment at three-quarter point of the unbraced beam segment.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Bending Moment Coefficient: 1.32 Newton Meter --> 1.32 Newton Meter No Conversion Required
Moment at Quarter Point: 30 Newton Meter --> 30 Newton Meter No Conversion Required
Moment at Centerline: 50.02 Newton Meter --> 50.02 Newton Meter No Conversion Required
Moment at Three-quarter Point: 20.01 Newton Meter --> 20.01 Newton Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

M'max = (M_coeff*((3*M_A)+(4*M_B)+(3*M_C)))/(12.5-(M_coeff*2.5)) --> (1.32*((3*30)+(4*50.02)+(3*20.01)))/(12.5-(1.32*2.5))

Evaluating ... ...

M'max = 50.2331739130435

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

50.2331739130435 Newton Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

50.2331739130435 ≈ 50.23317 Newton Meter <-- Maximum Moment
