Total Number of Connectors Resisting Total Horizontal Shear Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Number of Shear Connectors = Total Horizontal Shear/Allowable Shear for One Connector
N = V_h/q
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Number of Shear Connectors - Number of Shear Connectors can be described as the number of connectors required for building construction.
Total Horizontal Shear - (Measured in Newton) - Total Horizontal Shear is the shear force between the maximum positive moment at each end of steel beams or between the point of contra flexure in a continuous beam.
Allowable Shear for One Connector - (Measured in Newton) - Allowable Shear for One Connector is the shear force that can be sustained by one shear connector before failure.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Horizontal Shear: 4207.5 Kilonewton --> 4207500 Newton (Check conversion here)
Allowable Shear for One Connector: 175 Newton --> 175 Newton No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

N = V_h/q --> 4207500/175

Evaluating ... ...

N = 24042.8571428571

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

24042.8571428571 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

24042.8571428571 ≈ 24042.86 <-- Number of Shear Connectors

< Number of Connectors Required for Building Construction Calculators

Moment at Concentrated Load given Number of Shear Connectors

LaTeX Go Moment at Concentrated Load = (((Number of Shear Connectors*(Beta-1))+No. of Shear Connectors Required)/(No. of Shear Connectors Required*Beta))*Maximum Moment in Span

Maximum Moment in Span given Number of Shear Connectors

LaTeX Go Maximum Moment in Span = (Moment at Concentrated Load*No. of Shear Connectors Required*Beta)/((Number of Shear Connectors*(Beta-1))+No. of Shear Connectors Required)

Number of Shear Connectors required between Maximum and Zero Moment

LaTeX Go No. of Shear Connectors Required = (Number of Shear Connectors*(Beta-1))/(((Moment at Concentrated Load*Beta)/Maximum Moment in Span)-1)

Number of Shear Connectors

LaTeX Go Number of Shear Connectors = No. of Shear Connectors Required*((((Moment at Concentrated Load*Beta)/Maximum Moment in Span)-1))/(Beta-1)
