Hello All;
I'm looking at adding a steel plate to the underside of an existing concrete beam. I've done this before, and am pretty sure I know what to do, but have not liked the numbers I'm getting...
I want to add a 25mm thick plate to the underside of a 250 wide, 430 deep section spanning 10m. The shear load is 98 kN. My calculations using VQ/It show that the horizontal shear is around 0.6 kN when fastening at 250 crs..... Thi is quite surprising and I'm worried I've done someting rong...
What you do you all think,
Thanks in advace!
Cheers,
YS
