    Twin beam lateral restraints at top flange

    HI all I have 2-900WB simply supported beams spanning 18m. the beams are 1100mm apart. There is a large concentrated load in the middle. There is top flange K-bracing that tie the beams together. The nodes that for this "truss" are at 1m centres. They have the same bending moment at midspan...

    Hi All My question is in relation to Von Misers Yield stress criterion vs Principle stress limits. If I have a simply supported beam with a point load in the middle, should the longitudinal bending stresses in the beam be checked to priciple stress limitations or to Von misers criteria. The...
