Critical Stress for Carbon Steel by AISC code Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Critical Stress = 17000-0.485*(Effective Length of Column/Radius of Gyration of Column)^2
S_w = 17000-0.485*(L/r_gyration)^2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Critical Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Critical stress is required for crack propagation in a brittle material.
Effective Length of Column - (Measured in Meter) - The Effective Length of Column can be defined as the length of an equivalent pin-ended column having the same load-carrying capacity as the member under consideration.
Radius of Gyration of Column - (Measured in Meter) - The Radius of Gyration of Column about the axis of rotation is defined as the radial distance to a point which would have a moment of inertia the same as the body's actual distribution of mass.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Effective Length of Column: 3000 Millimeter --> 3 Meter (Check conversion here)
Radius of Gyration of Column: 26 Millimeter --> 0.026 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S_w = 17000-0.485*(L/r_gyration)^2 --> 17000-0.485*(3/0.026)^2

Evaluating ... ...

S_w = 10542.899408284

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

10542.899408284 Pascal --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

10542.899408284 ≈ 10542.9 Pascal <-- Critical Stress

Carbon Steel by AISC 360-16 Code

The AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction) Code was established in 1921 to serve the structural steel design community and construction industry in the United States states that
- no minimum content is specified or required for chromium, cobalt, molybdenum, nickel, niobium, titanium, tungsten, vanadium, zirconium, or any other element to be added to obtain a desired alloying effect
- the specified minimum for copper does not exceed 0.40%.

What is Carbon Steel and it's types?

Carbon Steel is steel with carbon content from about 0.05 up to 2.1 per cent by weight.
Types
1. Low-0.05 to 0.15% carbon content.
2. Medium-0.3–0.5% carbon content.
3. High-0.6 to 1.0% carbon content.
4. Ultra High-1.25–2.0% carbon content.
