To calculate wind load for industrial steel structures and to apply it by using TSD
- Que no.1
- Ans -
- Aim -
- Generate manual wind loading in the design report based IS code as per the following input.
- Tools used -
- Excel.
- IS codes.
- Calculator.
- Process -
- First we have to open MS Excel to enter values used for calculation.
- Next we have to obtain the required standard values from the IS codes.
- We have dimensions of our project (length,width and height).
- Assume wind speed as 39 m/s.
- Next we have to calculate the wind direction in both X and Y direction (+cpi & -cpi).
- We have to calculate -
- External pressure coefficiant.
- Internal pressure coefficiant.
- Net pressure coefficiant.
- Design wind pressure for all.
- Loading to be applied on the wall.
- Result -
- Thus after obtain all the above values, we can start our manual calculations.
- Que no.2
- Ans -
- Aim -
- Based on the above calculation apply the loadings on the model
- Tools used -
- Loads.
- Loadcases.
- Wind load.
- Area.
- Global X.
- Global Y.
- Global Z.
- Process -
- First open the file for which we have to apply the wind loads.
- Go to loadcase and add 8 wind loads -
- Wind + Y + cpi.
- Wind + Y - cpi.
- Wind - Y + cpi.
- Wind - Y - cpi.
- Wind + X + cpi.
- Wind + X - cpi.
- Wind - X + cpi.
- Wind - X - cpi.
- Next with help of manual loads which were calculated earlier apply loads on structure.
- Adjust the direction to global Y for face A and face B.
- Adjust the direction to global X for face C and face D.
- Adjust the direction to global Z for roof components.
- For all sides we have to apply both + cpi and - cpi values.
- With this all loads can be applied on the structure.
- Results -
- With above loads calculated now they are applied on structure.
- Que no.3
- Ans -
- Aim - On a separate model generate wind loading using wind wizard.
- Tools used -
- Manage property sets.
- Beams.
- Columns.
- Construction levels.
- Loadcases.
- Wall Panels.
- Roof Panels.
- Wind Wizard.
- Frames.
- Process -
- Open new file to start drawing.
- Create construction levels with required height.
- Go to manage property sets and create new concrete columns, steel columns and beams.
- Select the base and concrete columns.
- Now add steel beams from ground floor to first floor.
- Add dead and live loads on the structure.
- Create frames for the structure.
- Select side view and construct rafter using steel beam option.
- Now design wall and roof panels for structure.
- Click on wind wizard option.
- Select consider topography and consider cyclonic effect options and click on next.
- Next give dimensions and enter the wind speed value as 39 m/s. Select all general buildings and industrial structure.
- Select terrain category and enter fetch a distance value as 10 m and click on next.
- The results will be appeared and click on next.
- At last click on finish option.
- Now we are successful in applying the wind loads using wind wizard tool.
- Result -
- With above steps we can complete wind analysis using wind wizard tool for automatic calculations.
