3 Check for base pressure
Bearing pressure of plate w = Pu/Ap
= 0.17 Mpa
Allowable bearing pressure = 0.6fck
= 12 Mpa
Safe
4 Check for Minimum Thickness of base plate Clause 7.4.3.1
Thickness of plate required IS:800:2007

t s ≥√ 2. 5 w (a2 −0 . 3 b2 )γ mo / fy>tf
ts = 3.94 mm
Thickness of plate required = 10 mm
Safe
4 Check for shear capacity of bolts Clause 10.3.3
Design shear strength of bolt, Vdsb = Vnsb/‫ע‬mb IS:800:2007
Nominal shear capacity, Vnsb
Vnsb = 32.63 KN
Vdsb = 26.104 KN

Calculated shear force per bolt Vd = 3.75 KN

Safe
5 Check for bearing capacity of bolts Clause 10.3.4
Design bearing strength of bolts Vdpb = Vnpb/‫ע‬mb IS:800:2007
Vnpb = 2.5kb d t fu
kb = 0.4
Vnpb = 20 KN
Vdpb = 16 KN
Calculated bearing strength of bolt Vb = 7.5 KN
Safe
6 Check for tension capacity of bolts
 Design tension capacity of bolt Tdp = Tnp/‫ע‬mb

Nominal Tensile capacity of bolt

Tnp = 0.9fubAn<fybAsb(‫ע‬mb/‫ע‬mo)
0.9fubAn = 22.61 Mpa
fybAsb(‫ע‬mb/‫ע‬mo) = 89.2 Mpa
Nominal Tensile capacity of bolt Tnp = 22.61 Mpa
Design tension capacity of bolt Tdp = 18.088 Mpa
Calculated tension per bolt T = 7.5 Mpa
Safe
