Combined Bending and Tension

 

Bending and Axial Tension  (NDS section 3.9.1)

tension + tension

CL (lateral stability) is not used

tension + compression

if net tension...ignore, because it will be smaller than tension + tension

if net compression...

  • CV (volume) is not used
  • Recall that CV and CL cannot be used together.
  • Look for the minimum ft that will occur simultaneously with fb in load combinations.
  • More conservative to ignore ft.
