Design of Plan Bracing Connections

Node No. = 1557 L/C = Member No = ( Maximum ) 109 3182

Plan Bracing Axial Force, P = 113.092 kN Memb = Load Data Fy = 250 N/mm2 Sectional Area A =13.8 cm2 L90x90x8

Axial Capacity, T 155.25 = kN > 113.092 KN, OK Design for 75 % Axial capacity = 116.4375 kN A) Connection Type-1 ( Bolted Conn.) Alternative Grade of Bolts = 8.8 Dia of Bolts, db = 24 mm Total Nos of bolts (n)= 2 Tensile Stress, Ft =286 N/mm2 Shear Stress, Fv = 191 N/mm2 Shear Check V= Max ( P or 75 % T ) / n

( Tc = 0.45 x Fy x A )

Root Area of 366.5829 Bolt = mm2 Capacity of Bolt Tension, Tc = 104.8427 kN Shear, Vc = 70.01733 kN

Shear per bolt, 58.21875 V= kN < Shear Capacity, OK Weld length Calculations Weld Thkness, tw = 6 mm Length Reqd, P/ lw ( sw = x 0.707 x t ) lw Req.= 275 mm Weld Prov. 2 =x(90+25+50+50) Weld Prov. = 420 mm A) Profile Welded Connection Weld length Calculations sw = 100 N/mm2

Weld Provide is OK
