2 498 DESIGN EXAMPLES INTRODUCTION This chapter contains example problems in a format similar to what a designer might use when performing hand calculations. Each problem is intended to serve as a quick reference for the procedures on a particular topic. Problems are not intended as a primary learning tool, but, rather, to augment the content of previous chapters for key topics. As such, explanatory text is not included in the examples. However, the heading to each problem includes a list of sections from the text where relevant information can be found.

3 COMPARATIVE SHRINKAGE OF SAWN TIMBER AND GLULAM BEAMS (See also Section.3.1) Given: An 8 0 (green) DF-L sawn timber beam and a in in. DF glulam beam are being considered for use in a structure with an expected equilibrium moisture content of 8% in 19.5 in 7.5 in 6.75 in Wanted: Determine the expected shrinkage of each member through the depth. Assumed: Each member has a shrinkage rate of 6% from green to oven-dry (combination of radial and tangential shrinkage). The initial moisture content is 30% for the green sawn lumber and 13% for the glulam. Solution: ( ) 13% 8% S glulam 6.0% 1.0% 30% ( ) 30% 8% S sawn 6.0% 4.4% 30% d glulam S glulam d (0.01)(19.5 in) 0.0 in d sawn S sawn d (0.044)(19.5 in) 0.86 in Result: The sawn lumber beam will shrink nearly 0.9 in. in service. The glulam beam will shrink approximately 0. in. The sawn beam shrinkage is almost 4 1 timesthatoftheglulam beam. Furthermore, significant checking and possible warp is expected to occur as the sawn beam dries. These shrinkage-related issues must be considered in design. 499

4 SIMPLE BEAM DESIGN (ASD Method) (See also Sections 4.1, 4., 4.3) Given: Simply-supported beam spanning 30 ft with an estimated uniform dead load of 100 lb/ft (including self weight) and a uniform snow load of 400 lb/ft. Deflection limits are δ SL L/ in. for snow load and δ TL L/180 in. for total load including creep. Beam is fully braced at the ends and along the top edge. Wanted: Design a in. wide, 4F-1.8E DF glulam beam to support D + Sload combination..

A bearing length of.5 in. or more is required at each end. A 700 ft radius would give 0.5 in. of camber to offset the expected long term deflection due to dead loads and creep. 501

6 UPSIDE-DOWN BEAM ANALYSIS (ASD Method) (See also Section 4.3.) Given: A5 1 8 in in. 4F-V4 DF beam was specified to span 30 ft to support a uniform dead load of 100 lb/ft (including self weight) and a uniform snow load of 400 lb/ft. However, the beam was inadvertently installed upside-down. The beam is fully braced at the ends and along the top edge. Wanted: Analyze the beam for flexure as installed. Solution:. w D 100 lb/ft w S 400 lb/ft M TL w ( )( ) TLL 500 lb/ft 30 ft 8 8 M TL 56,50 lb-ft 675,000 lb-in 30 ft Volume factor: ( ) 1 ( 5.15 in 10 1 in C V b d ( ) 1 1 ft 10 L ( ) 1 ( 5.15 in 10 1 in C V 5.15 in 19.5 in ( ) 1 1 ft ft C V 0.9 ) 1 10 ) 1 10 Allowable stress: F bx F bx C D C M C t (C V or C L ) F bx 1850 psi (1.15)(1.0)(1.0)(0.9) F bx 1960 psi Stress due to applied loads: f bx M TL S x V M wl/ 6 (675,000 lb-in) 080 psi (5.15 in)(19.5 in) Stress ratio: f bx 080 psi 1.06 > 1.0 Not acceptable psi F bx wl /8 50

7 UPSIDE-DOWN BEAM ANALYSIS (ASD Method) continued... Result: The beam is overstressed in flexure when installed in the upside-down orientation. In addition, any camber manufactured into the beam would now be downward, giving a sagging appearance and potentially leading to ponding issues. The beam must be removed and reinstalled or replaced. 503

8 TENSION-FACE NOTCH (ASD Method) (See also Section 1..) Given: A5in in. 4F-1.8E SP glulam floor beam was specified to support a design live load of w L 100 plf and a design dead load of w D+SW 530 plf (including self-weight) across a 0 ft span.

9 COMPRESSION-FACE NOTCH (ASD Method) (See also Section 1..3) Given: A3 1 8 in. 1 in. 4 F-1.8E DF glulam floor beam was specified to support a design live load of w L 600 plf and a design dead load of w D+SW 10 plf (including self-weight) across a 1 ft span. The beam was designed with full lateral bracing (C L 1.0). The contractor has requested authorization to cut a notch on the top face of the beam at one end support, as illustrated. w D +sw 10 lb/ f t w L 600 lb /f t 5.5 in 1.5 in 3 in Wanted: Evaluate the shear capacity of the beam considering the proposed notch.

The proposed notch cannot be permitted. 506

11 SLOPED END CUT (ASD Method) (See also Section 1..3) Given: A5 1 8 in. 15 in. 4F-1.8E DF glulam roof beam spans 16 ft and supports a design snow load of w S 95 plf and a design dead load of w D+SW 33 plf (including self-weight). Framing considerations require a sloped out on the top face of the beam at the end, as illustrated. The beam is adequate for flexure and deflection. 5.4 in 10 in 1.5 in 15 in 5.5 in Wanted: Evaluate the shear capacity of the beam considering the sloped cut.

The beam must be designed for a deflection limit of l/40 under snow load alone. The beam will be laterally braced to prevent displacement and rotation at the supports only. P S 4500 lb P D 1500 lb Wanted: Design a in. wide beam to support the design loads plus self-weight.

46 DOUBLE-TAPERED STRAIGHT BEAM (ASD Method) (See also Sections , 7.) Given: The design calls for 5 in. wide, 4F-V3 SP, double-tapered, straight, roof beams spanning 4 ft. The original specification requires the beams to be custom manufactured with lamination grade requirements maintained for the full length of the beam. The beam is braced to prevent rotation at the supports and braced laterally along the compression edge. In place of the custom beams specified, the contractor has proposed to use in in. stock beams and to saw the taper himself. Each beam supports a snow load of 570 plf and a dead load of 153 plf (including selfweight). The deflection limit is l/40 based on snow load. The beam geometry is as illustrated in in 4 ft Wanted: Evaluate the field-tapered beams to determine if the proposed change is acceptable.

49 CONSTANT-DEPTH CURVED BEAM (ASD Method) (See also Sections 8.1, 8.) Given: The architectural design calls for a barrel-arch roof with in. wide curved DF glulam beams spaced at 5 ft on center. The beams span 18 ft between the inside faces of 7.5 in. deep columns, which are framed inside of walls. The design calls for a circular curve with a height of 5 ft from the top of the wall to the bottom of the beam at mid-span. The roof supports a snow load of 40 lb/ft and a dead load of 1 lb/ft, excluding the beam weight. The beam is braced to prevent rotation at the supports and braced laterally along the top edge. The vertical deflection limit is l 40 for snow load. Horizontal displacement at the beam ends is limited to 0.5 in. at each end for snow load. w 5 ft 18 ft 7.5 in Wanted: Determine the required depth for DF Combination 1 (L3 DF) with no radial reinforcement.
