BI-METALLIC MEMBER SUBJECT TO END LOAD & BENDING MOMENT 1

[StressMan2506]

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.

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
