To Analysis and Design of Steel Structures using TSD

Q1:) Summarize your study for the bending moment, shear force and deflection diagrams for the elements of the model

Aim: To analyze the structure & obtain the BM, SF & Deflection

Procedure:

Step:1)

Validate the model with DL, LL & WL

Step:2)

Load combinations

Step:3)

Analyze the structure as 1st order linear

Step:4)

Check the Status

Step:5)

Bending moment

Shear force

Deflection

Result: The Deflection, shear force & bending moment obatained from structure

Q2:) Based on the analysis design the members and outline the thought process in selecting the member sizes along with the foundation design

Aim: To select the appropriate members so that structure satisfies the design check

Procedure

Foundation : Size and depth of foundation can be increased to reduce deflection

Column : Depth & width can be altered

Beam : Section sized to be increased. Pinned at both ends for secondary beams, purlins

Step :1) Deflection result

To limit the deflection to codal value, increse the size of the beam

Step:2) Bending moment

Step:3)Check the member

Deflection & moment failure for size MB225

Step:4) Change the size of member to MB 400

Hence the code criteria is followed

Step:5)

To create footing

Foundations > select the type of footing

Step:6)

Reactions at pedestal
