LaTeX Go Compressive Stress = Concentrated Load of Reaction/(Web Thickness*(Bearing or Plate Length+2.5*Distance from Flange to Web Fillet))

Stress for Concentrated Load Applied at Distance Larger than Depth of Beam

LaTeX Go Compressive Stress = Concentrated Load of Reaction/(Web Thickness*(Bearing or Plate Length+5*Distance from Flange to Web Fillet))

Length of Bearing when Load applied at Distance Larger than Depth of Beam

LaTeX Go Bearing or Plate Length = (Concentrated Load of Reaction/(Compressive Stress*Web Thickness))-5*Distance from Flange to Web Fillet

Web Thickness for Given Stress

LaTeX Go Web Thickness = Concentrated Load of Reaction/(Compressive Stress*(Bearing or Plate Length+5*Distance from Flange to Web Fillet))

Required Stiffeners if Concentrated Load exceeds Load of Reaction R Formula

LaTeX Go

Concentrated Load of Reaction = ((6800*Web Thickness^3)/Clear Distance between Flanges)*(1+(0.4*Slenderness of Web and Flange^3))
R = ((6800*t_w^3)/h)*(1+(0.4*r_wf^3))

What are Bearing Stiffeners?

The Load-bearing web stiffeners or simply bearing stiffeners are vertically provided at points of application of concentrated loads and end reactions. The bearing stiffeners are provided to prevent the web from crushing and buckling sideways, under the action of concentrated load.

What is Web Crippling?

Web Crippling is similar to web buckling, but it happens in the web of the beam when it's subjected to compressive stress. The reaction at support developed due to high concentrated point load on the beam leads to the development of high compressive stresses in the thin web close to the upper flange or lower flange. As a result of this, the thin web may develop a fold at a place close to the flange and this is called web crippling.
