Web criterion d/t = 35.34
ε = 1
b/T < 10.5
d/t < 42
The section is classified as COMPACT
Step :- 2
Effective length
As both ends pin-jointed
KLx = 9m
KLy = 9m
KLz = 9m
Slenderness ratio
KLx/rx = 54.18
KLy/ry = 174.42
Non-dimensional effective slenderness ratio
λ = 1.964
Step :- 3
To calculate φ
h/bf = 1.60
> 1.2
T = 12.7mm
So, buckling class = b
α = 0.34
φ = 0.5(1+α(λ-0.2)+λ^2)
φ = 2.73
Step :- 4
Claculation of χ
χ = 0.216N/mm^2

Flange criterion B/2T = 5
Web criterion (D-2T)t = 32.61
ε = 1
B/2T < 9.4
(D-2T)/t < 83.9
The section is classified as PLASTIC
Step :- 3
Moment of resistance of the cross section
Moment Md = (Zpχfy)/γm
Md = 104.491kNm
< 391.50
Hence section ISMB 250 is adequate for flexure
Step :- 4
Shear resistance of the cross section
Shear capacity Vc = 0.6fyAv/γm
Av = 1725mm^2
Vc = 235.23kN
V = 261kN
V/Vc = 1.11
.> 0.6
Step :- 5
Check for web buckling
Slenderness ratio of web = 2.5d/t
d = 225mm
= 70.33mm
Design compressive stress fc = 203N/mm^2
Pw = 315.16kN
> 261
Hence web is safe against shear buckling
Step :- 6
Check for web crippling at support
Root radius of ISMB250 R = 13mm
tf + R = 25.5mm
Dispersion length n^2 = 63.75mm
Pcrip = 245625N
= 245.63kN
< 261
Hence section adequate for web crippling
Step :- 7
Check for serviceability Deflection
Design load = 58kN/m
Deflection δ = 95.36mm
Allowable deflection = 30mm
Hence serviceability is satisfied
- c) Base plate :-
Step :- 1
Strength of concrete fcu = 40 N/mm^2
Yield strength of steel fy = 250 N/mm^2
Material factor γm = .kN
Factored load = 1500 kN
Step :- 2
Steel column section
Thickness of flange T = 12.7 mm
Step :- 3
Area required
Bearing strength of concrete = 0.4fcu
= 16 N/mm^2
Area required = 93750 mm^2
Let size of plate
Bplate = 350 mm
Dplate = 350 mm
Area of plate = 122500 mm^2
Let projection on each side
a = b
= 25 mm
w = 12.24 N/mm^2
Thickness of slab base ts = 7.7 mm
< 12.70 mm
So use base plate of size 350mmx350mmx12mm.
- d) Pedestal :-
Grade of concrete = 40N/mm^2
Load = 123kN
Moment = 116kNm
Horizontal shear = 13kN
Yield strength = 250N/mm^2
Length of base plate L = 450mm
Width of the base plate B = 350mm
C/C distance of (Ld) of bolt group in Z = 300mm
C/C distance of (Ld) of bolt group in X = 180mm
Bearing strength of concrete fc = 16N/mm^2
Depth of column D = 300mm
Width of column W = 250mm
Step :- 1
Anchor Bolt Details
Dia of anchor bolt = 24mm
No of anchor bolt on each side = 4
Total number of anchor bolt,n = 8
Gross area of the bolt 'Asb' = 452.16mm^2
Net area of the bolt 'Anb' = 352mm^2
Ultimate tensile strength of the bolt fub = 400N/mm^2
Fyb(Anchor bolt) = 240N/mm^2
Step :- 2
Base plate details
Ultimate tensile strength of a plate,fu = 490N/mm^2
Thickness of plate = 16mm
Yield stress of plate = 330N/mm^2
Step :- 3
Anchor bolt design
Area of the plate = 157500mm^2
Stress Max pressure σ1 = F/A+6*Mz/BL^2
= 10.60N/mm^2
< 16
OK
Min pressure σ2 = F/A-6*Mz/BL^2
= -9.04N/mm^2
< 16
C = L*σ1/(σ1+σ2)
= 242.89mm
a = L/2-C/3
= 144.04mm
e = (L-Ld)/2
= 75mm
y = (L-C/3-e)
= 294.04mm
Tension in anchor bolts along the length of plate
FT = (Mz-Fxa)/y
= 364.38
Tension per bolt = 91.10kN
shear per bolt,V = 1.63kN
Step :- 4
Shear check
Factored shear force Vsb = 1.63kN
Vd,sd = 81290.9N
= 21.291kN
Factored Vd,sb = 65.03kN
Step :- 5
Tensile check
Factored tensile force in bolt Tb = 91.10kN
Tensile strength of bolt Td,b = Tnb/γmb
Tn,b = 0.9fubAn
= 126720N
= 126.72kN
Tn,b = fybAsb(γmb/γmo)
= 123316N
= 123.316kN
Lesser of two =123.32kN
So, Td,b = 98.65kN
Step :- 6
Combined unity check
(Vsb/Vdb)^2+(Tb/Tdb)^2
Vsb/Vdb = 0.025
Tb/Tdb = 0.92
Unity check = 0.85
< 1
Hence OK
Step :- 7
Anchor bolt length
Bond strength in tension bd = 1.4N/mm^2
Anchor length required = Tb/(3.14*d*τbd)
= 863.44mm
Let anchor bolt bolt length = 900mm

Wind pressure for purlin design = -2.339kN/m^2
For maximum upward wind force
Max upward Cpe = -0.4
Cpi = 0.5
Cpe + Cpi = 0.1
Pz = 1.95

Number of spans = 3
Deflection = (3/384)(wl^4/EI)
w = 3.351kN/m
Span = 6m
E = 207400N/mm^2
Ixx = 477.18cm^4
δ = 34.29mm
Allowable deflection δ = Span/180
= 33.33mm
> 34.29
Not OK
2) Design a simply supported gantry girder to carry electric overhead travelling crane
Step :- 1
Span of gantry girder = 7 m
Span of crane girder = 9 m
Crane capacity = 250 kN
Self-weight of trolley, hook, electric motor etc. = 40 kN
Self-weight of crane girder excluding trolley = 100 kN
Minimum hook approach = 1.0 m
Distance between wheels = 3 m
Self-weight of rails = 0.2 kN/m
Step :- 2
Maximum moment due to vertical load
Weight of trolley + weight of load lifted = 290kN
Self weight of crane girder = 100kN
For maximum reaction on girder, the moving load should be as close to the gantry as possible
Reaction at A RA = 501kN
Reaction at B RB = 281.875kN
Load on gantry girder from each wheel = 251kN
Factored wheel load = 375.833kN
Maximum moment ME = 634.21kNm
Letr self weight of girder = 2kN/m
Dead load = 2.2kN/m
Factored DL = 3.3kN/m
M due to DL = 20.21kNm
M due to impact load = 158.55kNm
Factored moment due to all vertical loads
M = 812.99kNm
Step :- 3
Maximum moment due to lateral load
Horizontal force transferred to rails = 29kN
Horizontal force on each wheel = 7.25kN
Factored horizontal force = 10.875kN
Maximum moment = 18.35kNm
Vertical shear due to wheel loads = 563.75kN
Impact = 140.94kN
Self weight = 9.90kN
Total shear = 714.59kN
Lateral shear due to surge = 20.68kN

Step :- 6
Let the distance of N>A> from, t,he tensio,n range by y'
y' = 388.93mm
Izz = 1348.13x10^6mm^4
Zez = 3466240mm^3
For compression flange about y-y axis
I = 16766.7x10^4mm^4
Zey = 838333mm^3
Total area of section = 21980mm^2
Let plastic N>A> be at a distance
Yp = 580.88mm
Zpz = 4410317mm^3
For top flange Zpy = 1078488mm^3
Step :- 7
Section classfication
For ISMB b/t = 4.90
< 9.4
d/t = 43.28
< 84
For ISMC b/t = 5.96
< 9.4
Hence section is plastic
Step :- 8
Check for local moment capacity
Local moment capacity for bending in vertical plane
Mdz = fyZp/1.1
= 1002.34kNm
Mdz = 1.2Zefy/1.1
= 945.34kNm
For top flange
Mdy = 245.11kNm
Mdy = 228.64kNm
In the above which ever the minimum value is taken
Mdz = 945.34kNm
Mdy = 228.64kNm
Step :- 9
Check for combined local capacity
(812.99/945.34)+(18.35/228.64)<1
0.947<1
Step :- 10
Check for buckling resistance
Md = βbZpfbd
βb = 1
Lt = 7000mm
E = 200000N/mm^2
hf = 597.5mm
Iy = 17850x10^4mm^4
A = 21980mm^2
ry = 90.12mm
fcr,b = 417.43N/mm^2
λ = 0.744
φ = 0.95
= 0.97N/mm^2
fbd = 166.591
Mdz = 734.72kNm
Mdy = 202.84kNm
Hence 1.20>1
Hence section is unsafe against torsional buckling
Step :- 11
Check for shear
Vz = 714.59kN
Shear capacity = Avfyw/(3^0.5x1.1)
= 944755N
= 944.755kN
> 714.59
Now = 566.853kN
Low shear
Step :- 12
Check for web buckling
b = 175mm
n1 = 232.6mm
d = 519.4mm
t = 12mm
= 104.746
Fcd = 128.6N/mm^2
Buckling resistance = 629008kN
> 714.59kN
Step :- 13
Check for deflection at working load
Vertical deflection
Serviceability vertical wheel load = 251kN
Deflection at mid span a = 2000mm
Izz = 1348.13x10^5mm^4
δ = 25.32mm
Horizontal deflection
I = 16766.65x10^4mm^4
δ = 4.88mm
L/750 = 9.33mm
Unsafe in vertical direction.
Safe in lateral direction.

Given:
Span of gantry girder = 7 m
Span of crane girder = 9 m
Crane capacity = 250 kN
Self-weight of trolley, hook, electric motor etc. = 40 kN
Self-weight of crane girder excluding trolley = 100 kN
Minimum hook approach = 1.0 m
Distance between wheels = 3 m
Self-weight of rails = 0.2 kN/m
