2.4 IvDDIFICATION OF PLASTIC H>MENT DUE TO AXIAL FORCE
The modified plastic moment is found by determining the
interaction between the plastic moment, Hp, of the section and the
reduction due to axial load.
An ultimate
value of P is assumed from which the depth of web, ya, (Fig. '3) required to support the axial load is found.
As
an examp1e j assume P

Two different approaches were used in Reference 2 to predict
this problem.
Rotation due to shear in the square knee ABC D (Fig. l2)
reinforced with diagonal stiffeners will be found by making the same assumption
that was implied in section
(3.l}~ahu4V
in part by the knee web and in part by the component of thrust from the
diagonal stiffener AC.
This simulates
Fig. l3c
shows the shear stresses acting on the web, the stresses introduced by
the flange force F2
due to the loading of Fig. l3b would resemble Fig. 144; the stress will
decrease toward the center of the plate as the stiffener transmits load
to the plate by shear.
will cause stresses along the stiffener somewhat like those of Fig. l4b.
Normal stresses will gradually increase towards the center of the stiffener.
When the two loadings of Figs. l3b and l3c are added together
-20
to give the loading due to the flange force, Fo ' it will be assumed that
the resultant stresses in the stiffener are uniform as shown in Fig. l4c.
It will be assumed that the web plate remains in a state of pure shear and
the contraction along line AC of Fig. l3c will thus remain uniform.
Since the total shortening of the stiffener must equal the
contraction due to the shear stresses in order that the continuity condition be satisfied, then in the general case (referring to Fig. 15)
