COURSE: Plate Girder Design

Tuesday 22/10/2024 10:00 - 12:00 (2 Parts: 22 & 24 Oct)
Where: On-line Course

Plate girders in buildings may be used for long span heavily loaded members, particularly if dimensional constraints make a rolled section inappropriate. Designers must consider shear lag, plate buckling and complete checks in accordance with EN 1993-1-5 , which is unfamiliar to many.
This short course will discuss all design aspects, including initial sizing, cross-sectional resistance and the resistance of stiffened webs.
The final part of the course will consider fabricated girders with thin corrugated webs – a form of construction in common use in other countries.
