  2. Megson – Ch. 17 Open Section Beams Consider only shear loads applied through shear center (no twisting) Torsion loads must be considered separately Assumptions Axial constraints are negligible Shear stresses normal to beam surface are negligible Near surface shear stress = 0 Walls are thin Direct and shear stresses on planes normal to the beam surface are const through the thickness Beam is of uniform section Thickness may vary around c/s but not along the beam Thin-Walled Neglect higher order terms of t (t2, t3, …) Closed Section Beams Consider both shear and torsion loading Shear of Open and Closed Section Beams

  3. S – the distance measured around the c/s from some convenient origin σz – Direct stress (due to bending moments or bending action of shear loads) – Shear stresses due to shear loads or torsion loads (for closed section) σs – Hoop stress, usually zero (non-zero due to internal pressure in closed section beams) Force equilibrium: General stress, Strain, and Displacement Relationships zs = sz =  shear flow; shear force per unit length q =  t (positive in the direction of s)

  4. Force equilibrium (cont’d) • From force equilibrium considerations in z-direction: • Force equilibrium in s-direction gives

  5. Direct stress: z and s strains z and s Shear stress:   strains  (= zs = zs) Express strains in terms of displacements of a point on the c/s wall vt and vn: tangential and normal displacements in xy plane Stress Strain Relationships  Not used (1/r: curvature of wall in x-y plane)

  6. Stress Strain Relationships • To obtain the shear strain, consider the element below: • Shear strain:

  10. The open section beam supports shear loads Sx and Sy such that there is no twisting of the c/s (i.e. no torsion loads) For this, shear loads must pass through a point in the c/s called the SHEAR CENTER Not necessarily on a c/s member Use the equilibrium eqn. And obtaining z from basic bending theory Shear of Open Section Beams (no hoop stresses, s = 0)

  11. Shear of Open Section Beams cont… From:

  13. Shear sample problem y • Determine the shear flow distribution in the thin-walled z-section shown due to shear load Sy applied through its shear center (no torsion). • Where is the shear center? • And the centroid? 4 3 h x t 1 h/2 2 Shear Flow Distribution (Sx = 0):

  18. If a shear load passes through the shear center, it will produce NO TWIST  M = 0 If c/s has an axis of symmetry, the shear center lies on this axis For cruciform or angle sections, the shear center is located at the intersection of the sides Sample Problem Calculate the shear center of the thin-walled channel shown here: Calculation of Shear Center

  19. Sample problem shear center The shear center (point S) lies on the horizontal (Cx) axis at some distance ξs from the web. If a shear load Sy passes through the shear center it will produce no twist. Let’s look at the shear flow distribution due to Sy: Since Ixy = 0 and Sx = 0 Further: Then:
