Apart from axial and torsional forces there are
other types of forces to which members may be
subjected. In many instances in structural and
machine design, members must resist forces applied
laterally or transversely to their axes. Such
members are called beams. Beams are the important
structural elements that transmit the loads from
slabs, walls, imposed loads etc.. A beam must have
an adequate safety margin against bending and
shear stresses, so that it will perform effectively
during its service life.
As this study refers from the unequal dimensions of
beams on the experimental investigation of the system
that carried out different behaviour of the beams. Most
constructions use equal dimensions of beams all
throughout and it is not unusual for some constructions
to use unequal beam depths or dimensions.
Since beams are designed for its geometry and
reinforcements wherein all forces acting on the
beam is to produce shear force and bending
moments within the beam, that in turn induce
internal stresses, strains and deflections of the
beam.
Smaller depth with lower loading Larger depth with higher loading
From figure 4
Smaller depth with higher loading Larger depth with lower loading
Based from the given data’s and examples or on the
results of the unequal beam depth the effects of it in its
frame analysis is that;
a. Loads
b. Length per span
