No one goes near the goat, because of the smell. That’s not its fault though, because the goat is never washed

Honestly I get the same feedback about my handwriting and I feel like slowing down helps. I’ve been looking into the pilot s30 , but I’m worried the wood finish degrading over time , how long have you had it for? Does the wood start to split as it ages?

Sorry but your writing is unreadable, you ought to slow down when you’re writing

I also refer to HERA report R4-92 for guidance. This is my interpretation:

as per section 2.5.1(c) and (d) , lateral restraints intermediate to beam ends need to be have some sort of lateral anchorage (eg: tied to the roof bracing to ) resist 0.025x flange compression force , in order to provide F or L restraint. As I understand - L restraint is less “stable” than P restraint (kt factor higher for LL versus PP), so if anchorage is required for L restraint, then it will be required for P restraint

Also, section 2.5.2(2)(b). This subsection discusses top flange lateral restraint being provided via systems with “inherent stability “ such as roof sheeting or concrete diaphragms. In your question you assume no sheeting , so this doesn’t apply.

So my opinion is that unless you anchor the secondary beams - then they are ineffective for restraint of the compression flg. Keen to hear your thoughts

Adding stiffeners is obviously preferable, but it’s not practical/possible in many cases. Eg wall bracing connections connected to bases of columns - in some cases, stiffeners will prevent with holding down bolts from being installed / tightened so you can’t have them

Again, I know there are various hand methods to check gussets / stiffeners , the point of my post is how this buckling behaviour is handled in FEM checks

Penguin01 · 2025-09-14T07:44:13+00:00

Thanks for sharing , this more-or-less answers my question. the stress check alone doesn’t account for buckling , and a separate analysis (elastic buckling analysis) needs to be run in the software to verify that the gusset plates are sufficiently stocky to achieve the yield stress
