Design of Steel Structures Prof S.R.Satish Kumar and Prof A.R.Santha Kumar 2.5 Plastic analysis In plastic analysis and design of a structure, the ultimate load of the structure as a whole is regarded as the design criterion The term plastic has occurred due to the fact that the ultimate load is found from the strength of steel in the plastic range This method is rapid and provides a rational approach for the analysis of the structure It also provides striking economy as regards the weight of steel since the sections required by this method are smaller in size than those required by the method of elastic analysis Plastic analysis and design has its main application in the analysis and design of statically indeterminate framed structures 2.5.1 Basics of plastic analysis Plastic analysis is based on the idealization of the stress-strain curve as elastic-perfectly-plastic It is further assumed that the width-thickness ratio of plate elements is small so that local buckling does not occur- in other words the sections will classify as plastic With these assumptions, it can be said that the section will reach its plastic moment capacity and then undergo considerable rotation at this moment With these assumptions, we will now look at the behaviour of a beam up to collapse Consider a simply supported beam subjected to a point load W at midspan as shown in Fig 2.14(a) The elastic bending moment at the ends is w 2/12 and at mid-span is w 2/24, where is the span The stress distribution across any cross section is linear [Fig 2.15(a)] As W is increased gradually, the bending moment at every section increases and the stresses also increase At a section Indian Institute of Technology Madras Design of Steel Structures Prof S.R.Satish Kumar and Prof A.R.Santha Kumar close to the support where the bending moment is maximum, the stresses in the extreme fibers reach the yield stress The moment corresponding to this state is called the first yield moment My, of the cross section But this does not imply failure as the beam can continue to take additional load As the load continues to increase, more and more fibers reach the yield stress and the stress distribution is as shown in Fig 2.15(b) Eventually the whole of the cross section reaches the yield stress and the corresponding stress distribution is as shown in Fig 2.15(c) The moment corresponding to this state is known as the plastic moment of the cross section and is denoted by Mp In order to find out the fully plastic moment of a yielded section of a beam, we employ the force equilibrium equation, namely the total force in compression and the total force in tension over that section are equal Collapse mechanism w Plastic hinges Mp Plastic hinges Bending Moment Diagram Mp Mp Fig 2.14 Formation of a collapse mechanism in a fixed beam (a) at My (b) My < M
