Member Shies Results <br /> Access the Member Section Stresses spreadsheet by satacktng tkle Results menu and then selecting Members <br /> Stresses. <br /> These are the i-Cseeper pit .;5fi calculated along each gsela member. The number of sections for which stresses ere <br /> reported is controlled try.the Number O!Sections specified on the Glehel e•"•nitrisf The actual number of segments is <br /> this Number 01 Seism's minus 1. The incremental length of each segment is the same• For example,if you sprcaty 5 <br /> sections,the member is divided into 4 *canal pieces,and the stresses are reported for each piece, <br /> There will be four stress values listed for each section location along the member taking into account any nx r*h sc, <br /> offtiets, Tile -I <br /> units for the stresses are shown at the top o each column. As for the sign convention,t he signs of these <br /> results correspond to the signs of the farces. These line up as positive or negative according to the member local axis <br /> directions. <br /> the axial stress is the ratio PIA,where P is the section axial force, A positive stress is compressive,since thr_sign CIA <br /> the stress follows the seam Of tlle'er;,;i, <br /> The sheer stress is calculated as V!5_A.,whore S A is the elective$iw r«reh For members not defined with a section <br /> set a value of 1,2 is used for the shear area coelficlent SA. <br /> The bending stresses are calculated using the familiar equation M`c/I,where'll'is the bat iuhie,icsoment,'c ix the <br /> distance from the neutral axis to the extreme fiber end T is the moment of inertia, 'the stress for the section's extreme <br /> edge is listed with respect to the positive and negative directions of the to at a esseL,:SA:e ,A tic live stress is <br /> compressive and a negative stress Is tensile, <br /> Some shapes are oat symmetrical about both local axes. For example Tee end Channel shapes. Thus the stress at the <br /> lrn ltive and negative edges may not be the clime. The locations for Ilse calculated stresses are illustrated rii this <br /> diagram; <br /> Y ,Bend Tap LBend Top <br /> x <br /> Band Bet Bend Bet <br /> Y Eland Too Bend Tops <br /> Y <br /> -Bend Bet Bend Bat <br /> So,the y-top location is the extreme fiber of the shape in the positive local y direction,ybnt is the extreme fiber in the <br /> negative local y direction.etc: The ytop,bot stresses are calculated using Ma. <br /> For enveloped results the maximum aritl minimum value at each location is listed, The load combination producing the <br /> maximum or minimum is also listed,In the Se"column. To include a particular Load Combination in the onvrlopc <br /> analysis,open the Load Combinations spreadsheet and check the box in the"Env'column. <br /> Note <br /> ' A special case is bending stress calculations for single angles. The iicndin .st,estes for koSgSs gu�lSc3 are reported <br /> for bending about the principal axes. <br /> To view the results for a particular member,use the Fled option. la view the fl axim5vns and minimums,use the nr <br /> [tption. <br /> WELCOME RAMP CALCS-IBC 2018 Page 17 <br />
