Properties of Combined Aluminum Tee Extrusion and Plate,

Abstract

The design information contained in this report was developed primarily for use in the SES Design Computer Program of NAVSEC 6114P1. Its publication as a separate report provides ship structural designers with tabulated properties for small non-standard aluminum T extrusions acting in combination with aluminum plate. The T extrusions range from .5 - 9.5 lb/ft and plating is in standard thicknesses from 1/8 in. to 1 in. The extrusions are designed primarily for use as stiffeners in lightweight aluminum structures such as the SES. Since stiffener spacings are typically less than the 35t effective plating width normally used for design in aluminum, the report includes tables for 8 in., 10 in., 12 in., 14 in., and 16 in. effective widths in addition to 35t. Criteria for proportions of the T extrusions are presented in the discussion.
