BTV 405 STRUCTURAL STEEL-I

ASSIGNMENT-1

Q.1 A 6 mm thick angle section is joins to 1 10mm thick gusset plate. The angle is supported a
load of 55 KN. Find out the number of 16mm diameter power driven rivets.

Q.2 Design a riveted joint to connect two plates 14mm thick. Power driven rivets may be used
for making the connection. Assume fy =250N/mm2.
(Hint: Check for all types of joint and provide which have maximum efficiency)

Q.3 A tie member consisting of angle section ISA 80mm X 50mm X 8 mm (fy=250 MPa) is
welded to a 12mm gusset plate. Design welds to transmit a load equal to the full strength of the
member.

Q.4 A tie member of truss consist of double angle section of dimensions 80mm X 80mm X 8mm
welded on the opposite side of a 12mm thick gusset plate. Design a fillet weld to make the joint
axial tension in the member is 200KN.

Q.5 Design the sectional for diagonal member of a roof turns which carries a tensile load of
270KN.Design the connection of member to 16mm thick gusset plate also. The length of the
connection is not to exceed 350 mm.provide lug angles if required. Use fe410 grade of steel and
bolts of grade 4.6.
