Figure 9 shows the shear stesestrain diagram which 's similar to the usual sesestrain diagram, alough the shear yield strength is mach lower than the tensile Yield strength of the same materia, After the shear eld strength s reached, the shear strain (e) ocreaser ‘apidly and the shear swength increstes beense. of ‘rnin hardening. 2, DETERMINING SHEAR DEFLECTION ‘The theory of defection caused by shear stress is rather simple. However, the actual determination of the shear ‘stteses and thelr distribution aco the ‘eam section (which two factors case the defection) 4s more dificult. In all case some kind of a form factor (a) must be determined, and this ts imply mater of expressing the ditesbtion of shear stress Yhroushout the web of the section, Since there is practically no sheer sess inthe lange mea, thi par. ticular area has negligible eect on the defection dus to shear (4). ‘The following formas are valid for seve types of beams and loading Sear tom wh cone ead fom fadora = 7 ra been etl ois tance abe esa of 6, = sear mad feasiciy FIG, 4 Fem factor fr sheor deen in bultap beams. simply supported beam; uniform toad (u) beam; concentrated load (P) snifrm lod (we) contecer beam; concentrated lod (P) haba total load, Ibs area of entire rection modus of elasticity in. shewr (Geeel = 12000000 ps) wy = debited load, Iby/iear in ay @ (3) Oy Walsing wor ated extenvly in the fabrcoten ond erecfon of ie teal fromed, Baty, belonzed operinent bling whic etwas contre beamt nthe upper sve, The bung wer designed basally or 0 nid see tire wih man beams dvgned plosialy nd gh Xtvaces uted to acconmades Tout 1op/aq tes ton «enforced Cencrle baldg would hove FG. 5 Beam secon for which Ee 5 opts ‘Tho slope of the deflection curve (@) is equal st each erossseetion to the shetsng strain (e) at the ‘ented ofthis cross-section. ae a factor with which the average shearing stress (su) amt be multiplied In order to obtain the shearing stress (exe) a the centroid of the erst sctons, ‘On tis bass, the form factor (a) for an beam or bor beam would be: ahha aban 6) where Figure 5 applies.
