LOCAL BUCKLING
Beams – compression flange buckles locally
Fabricated and cold-formed sections prone to local buckling
Local buckling gives distortion of c/s but need not lead to collapse

Condition for Beam Lateral Stability
• 1 Laterally Supported Beam
The design bending strength of beams, adequately
supported against lateral torsional buckling (laterally
supported beam) is governed by the yield stress
• 2 Laterally Unsupported Beams
When a beam is not adequately supported against lateral
buckling (laterally un-supported beams) the design
bending strength may be governed by lateral torsional
buckling strength
Dr S R Satish Kumar, IIT Madras 12

external actions shall satisfy

LATERAL BUCKLING OF BEAMS
 FACTORS TO BE CONSIDERED
 Distance between lateral supports to the compression
flange.
 Restraints at the ends and at intermediate support
locations (boundary conditions).
 Type and position of the loads.
 Moment gradient along the unsupported length.
 Type of cross-section.
 Non-prismatic nature of the member.
 Material properties.
 Magnitude and distribution of residual stresses.
 Initial imperfections of geometry and eccentricity of
loading.

LATERAL TORSIONAL BUCKLING OF
SYMMETRIC SECTIONS
Assumptions for the ideal (basic) case
• Beam undistorted
• Elastic behaviour
• Loading by equal and opposite moments in the
plane of the web
• No residual stresses
• Ends are simply supported vertically and laterally
The bending moment at which a beam fails by
lateral buckling when subjected to uniform end
moment is called its elastic critical moment (Mcr)

EFFECTIVE LATERAL RESTRAINT
Provision of proper lateral bracing improves lateral stability
Discrete and continuous bracing
Cross sectional distortion in the hogging moment region
Discrete bracing
• Level of attachment to the beam
• Level of application of the transverse load
• Type of connection
Properties of the beams
• Bracing should be of sufficient stiffness to produce
buckling between braces
• Sufficient strength to withstand force transformed by
beam before connecting
Dr S R Satish Kumar, IIT Madras 29
Effective bracing if they can resist not less than
1) 1% of the maximum force in the compression flange
2) Couple with lever arm distance between the flange
centroid and force not less than 1% of compression
flange force.
Temporary bracing

SUMMARY
• Unrestrained beams , loaded in their stiffer planes may undergo
lateral torsional buckling
• The prime factors that influence the buckling strength of beams
are unbraced span, Cross sectional shape, Type of end restraint
and Distribution of moment
• A simplified design approach has been presented
• Behaviour of real beams, cantilever and continuous beams
was described.
• Cases of mono symmetric beams , non uniform beams and
beams with unsymmetric sections were also discussed.
