Challenge

To calculate wind load for industrial steel structures and to apply it by using TSD

1.Aim:

To generate manual wind loading in the design report based IS code as per the following input

  • Basic wind speed = 39m/s
  • Terrain category 2

Procedure:

  • Open Excel sheet for calculation and open TSD file which created early to check dimension of the building.
  • Refer code IS 875 Part-3 2015 for,
  • For K1,
  • For k2,
  • K2 factor is,
  • For k3,
  • For k4,
  •  
  • Internal pressure coefficient- 7.3.2.2
  • For external co-efficient, Refer Table 5
  • With the above reference, Enter the value in excel for calculation.
  • Wall loading calculation:
  • Roof loading calculation:
  • Refer code IS 875 part 3
  •  

Result:

Hence, the calculation is done by refering IS 875-2015  Part-3.

2.Aim:

To apply the loadings on the mode from the above calculation

Procedure:

  • For applying wind load,
  • In TSD file, go to Load -> Load cases -> add to add the main load cases
  • Click ok
  • Y- direction:
  • Select the load case, Wind +Y +Cpi in status bar and go to 3D view.
  • Go to load -> Area load and select below property in property window and select the wall panel in face A.
  • Go to face B and apply load as mentioned in the table.
  • Go to face c and D and model wall panel as shown below.
  • Go to face C and apply load as mentioned in the table
  • Go to face D and apply load as mentioned in the table
  • Change the load case to +Y -Cpi and follow the same procedure.
  • Face A:
  • Face B:
  • Face C:
  • Face D:
  • X-direction:
  • Take X direction front side as face A and apply load as applied before.
  • Face B:
  • Face c:
  • Face D:
  • Go to +X -Cpi and apply the load by following the same procedure
  • Face B:
  • Face c:
  • Face D:
  • Roof loading:
  • Go to 3D view
  • Face EF:
  • Select load as +Y +Cpi and give the loading on roof as shown below
  • Face GH:
  • Select load as +Y -Cpi and give the loading as shown below
  • Face EF:
  • Face GH:
  •  
  • Select load as +X +Cpi and give the loading as shown below
  • Face EG:
  • Face FH:
  • Select load as +X -Cpi and give the loading as shown below
  • Face EG:
  • Face FH:
  • Result:
  • Click validate to validate the model.
  • Hence the loading is applied to the wind panel and roof panel by the above steps.
  1. Aim:

To generate wind loading using wind wizard on a separate model.

Procedure:

  • Open the TSD file for steel building and save as in different folder for wind wizard analysis
  • Select Load -> Wind wizard and select the following option and click next
  • Click next and select the below setting.
  • Click next which will show the Design wind pressure.
  • It shows Wind pressure as per the degree
  • Click finish.
  • Select load -> load cases and enter the cases.
  • Click analyze-> first order -> combination -> ok
  • Results:
  • Click validate to check the model.
  • Select the load combination in the status and click the review view.
  • Select the result view in the status below to see the results.
