## Abstract

A binding beam includes a steel form having a bottom plate portion and a pair of side plate portions extending upward from both ends of the bottom plate portion and binding beam concrete placed in a groove portion configured by the bottom plate portion and the pair of side plate portions of the steel form.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A steel-framed concrete beam comprising:
a steel form having a bottom plate portion and a pair of side plate portions extending upward from both ends of the bottom plate portion; and
concrete placed in a groove portion configured by the bottom plate portion and the pair of side plate portions of the steel form.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The steel-framed concrete beam according to claim 1, wherein an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel-framed concrete beam is calculated by Equation (1) below:
Fa=FRC+β·FS (Equation 1)
wherein,
Fa: an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel-framed concrete beam,
FRC: an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the concrete,
β: a burden factor of an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel form, which is 0.5 or less, and
FS: an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel form.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The steel-framed concrete beam according to claim 1, wherein
a part of the steel-framed concrete beam is joined to a girder, and
the steel form is provided with an end portion on the girder side in a longitudinal direction of the steel form, accommodated in the girder via a notch formed in a side surface of the girder, and having a length equal to or greater than a cover thickness of the girder.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The steel-framed concrete beam according to claim 1, wherein the side plate portion and the concrete have a web opening forming portion allowing formation of a web opening penetrating the side plate portion and the concrete.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The steel-framed concrete beam according to claim 1, wherein a non-opening member for fixing the pair of side plate portions to each other is provided in a range from an upper end position of the pair of side plate portions to a position below the upper end position by one-third of a height of the pair of side plate portions.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The steel-framed concrete beam according to claim 1, wherein the steel form is provided with a flange portion extending outward from an upper end of the side plate portion.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The steel-framed concrete beam according to claim 6, wherein the steel form is provided with a reinforcing portion extending downward or upward from an outer end of the flange portion.

### Claim 8

A method for constructing a steel-framed concrete beam comprising:
a steel form installation step of installing a steel form having a bottom plate portion and a pair of side plate portions extending upward from both ends of the bottom plate portion; and
a placement step of placing concrete in a groove portion configured by the bottom plate portion and the pair of side plate portions of the steel form installed in the steel form installation step.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The method for constructing a steel-framed concrete beam according to claim 8, wherein an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel-framed concrete beam is calculated by Equation (1) below:
Fa=FRC+β·FS (Equation 1)
wherein,
Fa: an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel-framed concrete beam,
FRC: an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the concrete,
β: a burden factor of an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel form, which is 0.5 or less, and
FS: an allowable bending moment or an allowable shear force of the steel form.
