Warping Constant Equations
Warping Constant Equations
(OP)
Does anyone know how to calculation the warping constant (Cw) for a W beam with a channel cap? This is regards to lateral torisional bending. Does anyone also know how to calculate St. Venents torsional constant?

Example 5.7 in the DG 9 deals with crane runway girder (beam with cap channel) that I think is very similar to your situation.
I recommend that you get a copy of DG 9. You can buy one from AISC or down load direct from their web site www.aisc.org (free for member). I am pretty sure it will help you.
