 Elastic Analysis of Composite Beams

 A composite beam is nonhomogeneous.

 To use the above formulas a transformed section is
employed.

 Elastic Analysis of Composite Beams
In the elastic analysis of the composite beam the following
assumptions are made:
 Plane sections before bending remain plane after bending.
 The strain in concrete in any point is equal to the strain in
steel at that point.
 The beam and slab materials are both elastic.
 These two materials are related by the modular ratio, n.
 The shear connection provides full interaction between beam
and slab.
 Any concrete below the neutral axis in tension is ineffective.

 Elastic Analysis of Composite Beams
Steps in Elastic Analysis are as follows:

 Using, the modular ration, transform, the composite section

into an equivalent area of steel material. ( can also be
transferred into concrete but steel is easier)

 Determine the location of N.A. of the transformed sections

 Calculate Itr (moment of inertia of the transformed section)

 Calculate stress in slab & beam under various loading
