      'My Favorites' is a special kind of lens which you can use to bookmark modules and collections directly in Connexions. 'My Favorites' can only be seen by you, and collections saved in 'My Favorites' can remember the last module you were on. You need a Connexions account to use 'My Favorites'.

      Definition of a lens

      Lenses

      A lens is a custom view of Connexions content. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see Connexions through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

      What is in a lens?

      Lens makers point to Connexions materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

      Who can create a lens?

      Any individual Connexions member, a community, or a respected organization.

Yielding

Module by: Michael Terk

Summary: (Blank Abstract)

Introduction to Yielding

The first limiting state to check in a beam is that of yielding. The yielding equations take in to account the stress on a member and the bending moment.

Equations to determine yielding

The flexural design strength as determined by the yielding limiting state is:

φ b M n φ b M n (1)

where:

φ b =0.90 φ b 0.90 (2)
M n = M p M n M p (3)

the plastic moment corresponds to:

M p = F y Z≤1.5 M y M p F y Z 1.5 M y (4)

where, the moment corresponding to onset of yielding at the extreme fiber from an elastic stress distribution is:

M y = F y S M y F y S (5)

note:

ZZ and SS are given in Part 1 of the Manual for each member.
