BI-METALLIC MEMBER SUBJECT TO END LOAD & BENDING MOMENT

BI-METALLIC MEMBER SUBJECT TO END LOAD & BENDING MOMENT

BI-METALLIC MEMBER SUBJECT TO END LOAD & BENDING MOMENT

Fellow Stress Engineers:

I am investigating a doubler on one flange of an extruded I-section. The tensile & compressive E values of the I-section are, respectively 1.02 & 1.03 times those of the strap. I have some familiarity with calculating such sections under end load or bending moment, but not when loaded by both. Can anyone direct me to such analysis?

Thanks in anticipation.

RE: BI-METALLIC MEMBER SUBJECT TO END LOAD & BENDING MOMENT

i'd use "rule of mixtures" ... make an equivalent section with one property, E1; get the stresses; transform the stresses on the E2 component ... both for endload and for bending
