Strength Analysis of Single-Symmetry Ratio for Single-Symmetry I-Beam

Abstract

Double-symmetry I-beams are the most common beam cross-sections in structural building. Because that is simpler to design and analyze steel profiles than single-symmetry I-beams. However, with the advancement of economy, the improvement of the quality of life and the cultural standards, large-scale emergence of various large span bridges, special bridge-type landscapes and viaducts. Single symmetrical I-section is better than Double-symmetry I-section to fairly in line with demand characteristics and material economy. This study chooses different I_yc/I_y ratio sections, 0.229, 0.23, 0.3 and 0.5. I_yc/I_y =0.23 is the change point of the sudden drop of the strength of the compressed airfoil. In study, the section is divided into three sections of plasticity, inelasticity and elasticity for analysis and comparison. Considering the different section sizes. If the value of L_b for a small non-elastic interval is too large, the section with a smaller cross-section will reach the elastic interval. Taking all section conditions L_b into consideration, taking 1.4m as a section will reach the non-elastic interval, if the value of the longer L_b is too small, the section with the larger section does not reach the elastic interval. In study, 10m is taken as the section to reach the elastic interval, orientation the AISC ( 2017 ) specification is used to analyze the I-beam. Symmetrical wing plate cross-sections were increased and reduced. The strength of the cross-sections between the compressed side and the tensioned side was discussed, and a single-symmetric I-section with the best cross-sectional efficiency was proposed.
