tension field action plate girder- latest code
tension field action plate girder- latest code
(OP)
Regarding plate girder design with stiffeners, previously to be allowed tension field action the panel aspect ratio a/h had to be less than 3.0 and the codes listed an 'arbitrary" fabrication handling suggestion of aspect ratio< 260/ (h/t)2.
AISC 2005 Commentary G4 now defines the 260/ (h/t)2 as MANDATORY to allow tension field action. Anyone have any ideas on this discrepancy???
