Thickness of Column Flange Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Thickness of Column Flange?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

t f = 0.4 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{P bf}{F yc}}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

t f = 0.4 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{5000kN}{50MPa}}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

t f = 0.4 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{5000}{50}}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

t f = 0.004m

LAST Step Convert to Output's Unit

∴

t f = 4mm

Flange Thickness

The Flange Thickness is the thickness of a flange in a protruded ridge, lip or rim, either external or internal of a beam such as an I-beam or a T-beam.

Symbol: t_f

Measurement: LengthUnit: mm

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

Formulas to find Flange Thickness

Computed Force

Computed Force delivered by the flange of a moment connection plate multiplied by 5/3 (dead and live loads only) and 4/3 (live and dead loads in conjunction with wind & earthquake forces).

Symbol: P_bf

Measurement: ForceUnit: kN

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

Formulas to find Computed Force

Column Yield Stress

Column Yield Stress is the minimum stress at which a column will undergo permanent deformation or plastic flow without a significant increase in load.

Symbol: F_yc

Measurement: PressureUnit: MPa

Note: Value should be greater than 0.

Formulas to find Column Yield Stress

sqrt

A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number.
