默认 flange bracing design

flange bracing design
hello all,
i understand that the concept of flange bracing is to provide external support in the case of lateral torsional bukling in a flexural member. i have done some research and am unable to find any reference(s) that deal with the design of the flange brace itself. the whole point of a flange brace would be defeated if the flange brace itself is not strong enough or stiff enough to prevent the flexural member (beam) fom twisting or displacing laterally.
does anyone here have any idea on how best to estimate the forces that a particualr flange brace might be called upon to resist? are there any rules of thumb or established and accepted procedures for approaching the design of flange braces?
your help and insight in this matter is, as always, much appreciated.
thank you in advance.

this subject is addressed in merritt's "standard handbook for civil engineers, 3rd edition". the discussion is in the chapter about wood design & construction (chapter 11) but should apply just as well for steel members.
here is the relevant quote: "...general experience indicates that a brace is adequate if it supplies a restraining force equal to 2% of the applied load on a column or the force in the compression flange of a beam. it does not take much force to hold a
i myself am these days reviewing the brace things and feel that not all is well settled as of now. in particular, and waiting for my entire revamped understanding of what out there, i have the vague feeling of that lrfd 99 approvers have felt something of the same and have gone in some way conservative.
in any case, clear definition on how to proceed you have there, at least on force and stiffness demand for orthogonal braces. this you may find in chapter c of lrfd 99. i think i have worksheets to estimate these demands according to such code except for torsional bracing, but i would love to have the better understanding i am looking for before making them available at the collaboratory site.
once you know the bracing force and stiffness to find a tube that meets this is quite easy, or maybe a rod if tension only braces.
aisc - section c3.4a. deals with lateral bracing of beams - you are right on with the idea that stiffness and strength are the two requirements. you didn't mention what country/spec/code you are designing under so aisc may not be applicable.
alanderbyalfiler's statement about local flange buckling has nothing to do with lateral torsional buckling in a beam.
around 2% is what i have heard before also. i would keep the relative stiffness of the brace in axial, to the main
thank you all for your comments.
i have heard of the "2 percent" rule to calculate flange brace forces but am aware of at lease four different variations:
1) use 2% of the force in the compression flange of the member being braced
2) use .2% of the bending moment in the member being braced
3) use 2% of the nominal strength [(fy)(bf)(tf)] of the compression flange of the member being braced
salmon & johnson's textbook "steel structures" has detailed description, procedures and example on this topic. i followed it before. check it out.
it's not in the asd 9th edition, although it or something like it may be in subsequent addenda to the 9th edition (asd spec is really getting old). i was referring to the lrfd manual - sorry.
this stuff has been developed over the years by joe yura at univ. of texas - austin. the 2% rule is rough, very rough, and probably usually conservative. it would be based on the compressive force in the top flange.
in australian practice, a restraining member to a compression member must resist, at a minimum, "0.025 times the maximum axial compression force in the
in th uk we use 2% of the squash load of the compression column flange.
forced required in brace = 0.02btpy.
b= flange width
t= flange thickness
py= steel strength.
ishvaaag mentioned some rule of thumb guide sheets and a collaboration site. i'm looking for some on this and a related topic: lifting lug design. any suggestions?
thanks-
