CE3050: Basic Structural Steel Design

Even Semester July-Nov 2013

Tutorial 3
1. WPB 20020083.52 (IS 12778:2004) is used as a column. The column is laterally
supported in the plane of the major axis at the height of 3.5 m and in the plane of the minor
axis at the height of 2.5 m. Both the ends may be assumed as hinged. What is the design
load carrying capacity of the column. The grade of the steel is E250.
2. 172924.8 HF RHS (IS 4923 : 1997) is used as a column. What is the design load carrying
capacity of the column. The grade of the steel is E250. Assume that the ends of the column
are rigidly connected.
3. Design a single equal angle to carry a compression of 50 kN. The center to center distance
between the end connections is 2 m. Assume that at least two bolts are used for the end
connection.
