Longitudinal Shear Verification Table

Generate a table summarizing the longitudinal shear checks. .

From the Main Menu select Rating > Bridge Rating Design > CS454/20 > Steel Bridge > Assessment Result Tables > Longitudinal Shear Verification Table

Element:  Element ID

Part:  The i- or j-end of the element, giving the Node ID at that end in square brackets [Node ID]

Section Type:  Compact or noncompact

Rating Case:  The relevant Load Combinations for Assessment. Assessment check is performed for 12 sets of concurrent forces for each load combination.

q: The longitudinal shear per unit length.

Pim: The nominal initial mean static strength.

Pa: The assessed static strength.

qr: The longitudinal shear resistance.

q/qr: The ratio of shear flow to longitudinal shear resistance.

q/qr_limit: The maximum value of the ratio of shear flow to longitudinal shear resistance.

Check:  An overall indication whether the section passed all checks and is OK or Not Good (NG)
