Project 2 - Review of Shear, Moment & Splice connections in StaadPro Connection Module
AIM& INTRODUCTION-
Typical shear, moment and Splice joints in Staad Connection module for the following 2D portal frameed structure modelled in staadpro are required to be designed with following inputs/data-
Also report to be Generated.
Inputs :
Supports o 2D Frame : Fixed support
Spann : 15m
Roof : Pitched roof
Ridge height : 12m
Slope : 4 degrees
Load : UDL of 10 kN/m on roof beam
Stees Section : Hot rolled
Splice joint location : At 6 m from base
Hanger beam : Shear connected with column support of 4 m height from splice joint with
a length of 3m with a beam column corner joint carrying 5 kN/m load and 5 KN
horizontal force
Also Design and optimize base plate connection. Optimise beam and column for 85% utilization
PROCEDURE IN DETAIL-
1- 2D portal frame as per given data and loading is shown below-

2- 3D view of 2D portal frame-

3- Load assignment
3(i) Dead load-Self weight

3(ii) Live load- 10 KN/m on roof beam

3(iii) Live load- 5 KN/m on hanger beam

3(iv) Live load- Horizontal force of 5 KN

4- Joints are created and will be designed one by one in the steps to follow[-

Up to step 4 are common to all joint desgn
DESIGN OF COLUMN SPLICE JOINT AT NODE NO. 7 BETWEEM MEMBER 1 & 8

Optimization of design- Joiunt is optimized to the utilization ratio 0.86 as shown below-

Report- Various design data are shown below-


Report- Design results and their permissible values-




As seen from above the Column splice joint is 86% utilizes which is less than 100% but close to it.
Thus design is safe from geometical consideration as well as from strength criteria

RESULT - Thus 2D Portal frame is created in staad pro with given data and typical shear, moment , gussett plate , column base and slice joint in RAM connection for 2D portal frame are designed and optimized as shown below. Design of all the 03 joints are safe from Geometrical consideration as well as on strength criteria as indicated from utilization ratio which are 0.86 , 0.7 0.94 and 0.97 very close to 1.0 but < 1.0. Report and DXF data are also generated.
