To model columns for industrial steel structure using TSD

Challenge-2 : To model columns for industrial steel structure using TSD

Introduction:

In This Challenge we need to create columns for Industrial Steel using Tekla Structural Designer Software. Here we Are using challenge 1 Grid as posted in Challenge 1, and hence by using this grid alignment we positioned the columns and beams hence here we are using a pedestal P1 400x600mm and Column C1 as ISMB 350 and Primary and Secondary Beam as ISMB 250 so procedure is as follows,

1. Create column properties for different types of pedestal members and model in the grids created as per the assignment 1

Aim:

• To Create column properties for different types of pedestal members and model in the grids created as per the assignment 1

Procedure:

• Open the Challenge 1 File of Tekla of Grid Layout as Shown Below.
• And Select the Concrete Column option in Model menu.
• And Adjust the size of Footing as Pedestal P1 600x400mm as shown below.
• Select P1 as Pedestal and Give the setting as started from base to gf as shown.

Result:

• Pedestal with properties 600mm x 400mm is created and placed from Base to Gf.

2. Create column properties for steel columns and model columns in the grid created as per assignment 1.

Aim:

• To create column properties for steel columns and model columns in the grid created as per assignment 1.

Procedure:

• Now Select the Model option and Select the Rolled Steel column option.
• And Now give the Setting option as GF to roof and select the Section as C1 as ISMB 350.
• Now save the Setting of Column C1
• Now place the Column as shown in the Model.

Result:

• Pedestal with properties 600mm x 400mm is created and placed from Base to Gf.

3. Create beam properties and model primary and secondary beams on the ground floor

Aim:

• To Create beam properties and model primary and secondary beams on the ground floor

Procedure:

• Now use the Option of Steel Beams option to place Primary and Secondary Beam.
• Use the setting as B1 as ISMB 250 and Now.
• And also set the major alignment as bottom and Save the setting as B1
• Now select the frames from column to Column.

Result:

• Beams of ISMB 250 is Created and Placed in the Ground Floors.
