Structural Dynamics Concepts

Selection of I-beam cross section and determination of numerical values of self oscillation
frequencies

The maximum bending moment is found from the MΣ diagram. In this case

We determine the required moment of resistance of the section:

We choosen I-beam N30, Wx=472 cm3, Jx=7080 cm4; modulus of elasticity for steel E = 200
GPa
