Design Aids for Built-Up I-Shaped Beams with Slender Webs

Nasados Jr., Paul P. (2009). "Design Aids for Built-Up I-Shaped Beams with Slender Webs," Engineering Journal, American Institute of Steel Construction, Vol. 46, pp. 1-28.

Available Strength Tables for I-shaped beams with slender webs for the limit states of flexure and shear are presented. The tables were prepared in a format similar to the design aids available in the 13th Edition AISC Steel Construction Manual. The generation, applicability and limitations of the tables are discussed. An example is presented to demonstrate the usage of the Available Strength Tables.
