NCCI: Initial Design of non Composite Beams

Design graphs are provided to help the designer in the selection of rolled I-section profiles for secondary non-composite beams.

1.

General

This document provides design graphs for the selection of Universal Beam profiles to be used as secondary beams (non composite beams). These graphs give the maximum span length versus the slab span, for various section ranges and steel grades. The lightest section is used for each range. Two cases are considered for the serviceability limit state check (ref to UK industry guidance, as quoted in SN034): Imposed load deflection limited to L/200 (for beams generally) Imposed load deflection limited to L/360 (for brittle finishes)

The loads are uniformly distributed. The weight of the slab is 3,0 kN/m2. The imposed load is 5 kN/m2. The bending resistance is based on the plastic moment resistance (Class 1 or 2) using the nominal yield strength of the material without taking into account any reduction related to the thickness. Partial factors are: JG = 1,35, JQ = 1,50, JM0 = 1,0 and JM1 = 1,0. The permanent loads are not taken into account for the serviceability limit state check. The beam is considered as fully restrained.
