A. Shear Checks
1. Shear In Webs – Unstiffened Flat Webs about Major Axis (Clause 3.4.20)
clear height of shear web, h = 176.9 mm
thickness of flange or web, t = 2.6 mm
h/t = 66.038
h Bs − Fsy
For slenderness limit, S1 = (Table 3.3.6)
t 1.25 Ds

= 67.089
Shear yield strength, Fsy = 9 ksi (For alloy 6063-T5)
Compressive Modulus of Elasticity, E = 10100 ksi (For alloy 6063-T5)
Factor of safety on yield strength, ny = 1.65 (Table 3.3.3)
h Cs
For slenderness limit, S2 = (Table 3.3.6)
t 1.25

= 92.12
h/t < S1
Fsy
Therefore Fs = ny

Therefore, Allowable Shear Stress, Fs = 37.608 N/mm2


Max Shear Force from STAAD Fy = 3.735 kN
Permissible Shear stress = Fy/Area
= 0.251 N/mm2
< Fs
Hence Safe
