PLATE CHECK (16mm Thick)

Plate Thickness T = 16 mm
Span (maximum spacing b/w stiffeners)
L = 0.89 m
Load w = 98.1 kN/m2
Yield strength of plate Fy = 355 Mpa

Plate designed as one way slab, as the aspect ratio is more than 2.0
a. Check for bending
Considering 1.0 m breadth of plate
Breadth of plate b = 1 m
Section modulus of plate Z =bT^2/6 = 42666.66667 mm3
Bending moment M= wL^2/8= 9.71 kNm
Actual Bending stress σ = M/Z = 227.65 Mpa
Allowable bending stress σall = 0.66*Fy
= 234.30 Mpa
Actual bending stress is less than Allowable, thickness provided is Safe

a. Check for shear

Shear force F=wL/2 = 43.65 kN
Shear area A=b*T = 16000 mm2
Actual Shear stress τ = F/A = 2.73 Mpa
Allowable shear stress τall = 0.4*Fy
= 142.00 Mpa
Actual shear stress is less than Allowable, thickness provided is Safe
