How does ideCAD control the maximum spacing of moderately ductile beams according to AISC 341-16?
Maximum spacing of beam bracing systems is controlled automatically and reported with steel beam reports.
Symbols
Fy = Specified minimum yield stress
Ry = Ratio of the expected yield stress to the specified minimum yield stress, Fy
Lb = Length between points which are either braced against lateral displacement of compression flange or braced against twist of the cross-section, in. (mm)
ry = Radius of gyration about y-axis, in. (mm)
E= Modulus of elasticity of steel = 29000 ksi (200000 MPa)
Steel Beams
The bracing of moderately ductile steel beams should provide a maximum spacing given the equation below.
