The invention discloses a method for calculating the equivalent
section modulus of a cold-formed thin-walled steel beam with a hole under a pure bend, the cold-formed thin-walled steel beam has a C-shaped section, and long round holes are continuously formed along a web plate; comprising the following steps that the width b of a web straight section of the cold-formed thin-walled steel beam, the height h of a
flange straight section, the length d of a curled edge straight section, the plate thickness t, the total length e of an oblong hole, the appearance period S of the oblong hole, the semi-circle
radius r of the two ends of the oblong hole and the steel yield strength fy are determined; based on an effective width method, considering local buckling and an oblong hole weakening effect, respectively calculating effective widths of a web, a
flange and a curled edge, combining the effective widths to form an equivalent effective section, and calculating an effective area Aeff of the equivalent effective section and a distance eeff from an effective
centroid to a center line of the web; and calculating an effective
inertia moment Ieff and an equivalent
section modulus Weff. According to the method, the
section modulus after reduction can be quickly obtained by substituting the geometric dimension once, the method is simple and quick, and high-precision and zero-iteration preposed input can be provided for subsequent deformation checking calculation and flexural
capacity design.
