Is any Italian-speaking engineer able to explain what the letters A1, B1 and A2,B2 represent in the attached diagram?
I can follow all the other headings but it's just those that fox me.
Thanks.
I don't speak Italian, but I don't think you've included enough information for this to matter. I would guess they mean the end reactions calculated as if there were two simple span beams instead of one contiuous one. You could check this against the standard formulas for continuous beams over stiff supports.
going from the formulas for the Ti's, looks like the A,B's are the simple span end reactions combined with the reactions caused by the interior moment, MI:
A1 = simple span reaction at the left end of the first span
B1 = simple span reaction at the right end of the first span
A2 = simple span reaction at the left end of the second span
B2 = simple span reaction at the right end of the second span
It'me that I posted that figure. I asked if it was necessary any translation, but someone replied that it was not necessary. Any way all above answers are correct. I here attached the complete set of formulas
original book : "Stahl im hochbau" - Verlag Stahleisen - Dusseldorf - 1969 (but 1st edition 1935)
my copy (word by word translation in Italian) : "L'acciaio nelle costruzioni" - ediz. Cremonese - 1973 (out of print - few copies available on line)
PS : I already did (for my personal use) the digitalization of formulas for beams and frames. I can post if no problems with copyright : let me know
When making CNC machined parts, mastering tolerances can be challenging. Are general tolerances good enough? When does it make sense to call out for tighter tolerances?

When designing a metal component, engineers have to consider how susceptible certain alloys are to corrosion in the final product’s operating environment. In a recent study by NACE (National Association of Corrosion Engineers), it was estimated that the direct and indirect costs of corrosion in the United States is approximately 6.2% of the GDP. In 2016, that cost exceeded $1 trillion dollars for the first time. Download Now
With all of the hype around 3D printing, it can be easy to get lost in fascinating, intricate metal parts made with additive manufacturing. These parts, while impressive, are probably dissimilar from many of the parts you currently produce or use. So why invest in metal additive manufacturing? Download Now
Construction was at one time a highly regionalized business. Pragmatic and market forces made it more efficient for even a large, industrial general contractor to focus regionally. But inexorable trends are making it more important for major commercial, civil, engineering and industrial contractors to grow their global footprint.
