Steel Beam Design
4
Step 3
Draw the shear and moment diagrams, and
calculate V max and M max .
Step 4
Calculate the section modulus Zx required to
support the applied moment. Select the
lightest steel beam from the Appendix/Table
that supports M max and has enough stiffness
to the maximum deflection.
5
• Step 5
Include the beam weight in new drawings of the
load, shear, and moment diagrams. Check that
the beam can support the applied loads and
its own weight, and that it still meets the
maximum deflection constraint.
Step 6
Calculate the shear strength of the selected
beam, and check that the beam will support
more shear load than is applied.

There are two methods of design:
1) Load Resistance factored design (LRFD):
-Fy is kept as it is
19
From table select W21X44 (Z (or S)=81.6)
20
Therefore selection of W21X44 (Z (or S)=81.6) is ok!!!!!!

22
Other factors to be considered in LRFD
• Deflection
• Lateral support
23
Other factors to be considered in ASD
• Ultimate Load = DL+LL+ un-factored other loads
• Allowable stress, Fb= 0.66Fy
• Deflection check
• Lateral support

Design for continuous steel beam
• AISC (ASD/ LRFD) specifies the process of
calculating maximum moment:
• Take the 90% of Negative moment
• Increase the maximum Positive moment by
adding the 10% of the average negative
moment of the ends of a span.

w=0.4x1.2+1.6x1.4=2.72 Kip/ft
M (+ve) =9wL2/128 Negative moment = 136*0.9=122.4 kip-ft
=9*2.72*20*20/128 Positive moment = 76.5 + 0.1*(136+0)/2=83.3 kip-ft
=76.5 kip-ft
M (-ve) =wL2/8
=2.72*20*20/8
=136 kip-ft Therefore design moment
= 122.4 kip-ft
