    Compression Flange Bracing. The user may specify a number of parameters related to unbraced length considerations. These criteria are found in the Criteria - Flange Bracing command. Based on these criteria RAM Frame automatically determines the braced condition for each member.

    Lateral bracing of the compression flange is bracing designed to resist forces from buckling of the compression flange and provide stiffness to prevent translation and rotation. Laterally supported steel beams are those which have continuous bracing, such as from a slab, so that lateral instability of the compression flange is not a design issue.

    between cross section centroid and the centroid of the compression flange; t is the distance between the cross-section centroid and the centroid of tension flange; I yc is the lateral moment of inertia of the compression flange; and I yt is lateral moment of inertia of the tension flange. Nodal Torsional Bracing, Strength Requirement:

    This is because plan bracing provides lateral restraint, i.e. it stops the compression flanges of beams from moving sideways. Plan bracing takes the form of diagonal members, usually angle sections, connecting the compression flanges of the main beams, to …

    Using ASD AISC 9th Edition, for W27x94 (Fy=50) beams with Fb=.66Fy, lateral bracing supports would need to occur at maximum 8.9 ft (Lc) spacings and would be designed for capacity of 4.9 kips horizontal force (using 2% of the maximum compression flange force). Question 1: Could lateral bracing be provided by wood trusses?

    Stability Bracing. 4.3. Stability Bracing. 4.3.1. What constitutes a lateral brace for a beam? The designer may use one or both of two general options to provide a beam brace: (1) brace the flange subject to compression directly or (2) prevent twist of the cross section. A direct brace may be provided for a primary member by a properly attached ...

    2) Use .2% of the bending moment in the member being braced 3) Use 2% of the nominal strength [ (Fy) (bf) (tf)] of the compression flange of the member being braced 4) Use 10% of the applied axial load in the member being braced. All of the above are rules that I have heard from other more senior Engineers but have never actually seen in writing.

    Selecting Criteria > Flange Bracing opens the Compression Flange Bracing dialog. Beam flanges can be specified as braced continuously along the top flange, continuously along the bottom flange or not braced continuously (by not selecting either bracing option). Brace points established in RAM Modeler are always retained.
