STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Plastic Moment for Fixed Beam with Load at Center = (Theoretical Load*Overall Length of Beam)/8
Mpf = (Wu*l)/8
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Plastic Moment for Fixed Beam with Load at Center - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Plastic Moment for Fixed Beam with Load at Center is considered in the case where the concentrated load is placed at equal distance in the beam.
Theoretical Load - (Measured in Kilogram) - Theoretical Load or Nominal Load is the maximum load that the beam can support.
Overall Length of Beam - (Measured in Meter) - Overall Length of Beam is the total span of the beam in the structure whereas Effective length is the distance between the centers of bearing supports.

Plastic Moment for Fixed Beam with Load at its Center Formula

Plastic Moment for Fixed Beam with Load at Center = (Theoretical Load*Overall Length of Beam)/8
Mpf = (Wu*l)/8

Formula Background

Kinematic Method: Δ = θ L/2
External work =Load × Deflection
= Wu× θL/2
Internal Work = Moment ×Rotation
= Mpθ+ Mp (θ + θ) + Mpθ
By principle of virtual work,External Work done =Internal work done
Wu(L/2 θ) = 4Mpθ
Wu = 8 Mp/L
