Ans 1 )

Aim:-

To Calculate the total number of purlins and girts required for the building with given inputs.

Procedure:-

Step 1:-

Open STAAD Pro Software and draw the building using commands for the given inputs.

Step 2:-

No. of Horizontal member at Roof Level along single roof = (Length of Rafter / Spacing) + 1

Length of Rafter = √[(Half of Span)² + (Height of Rafter)²]

=√(25² + 2.5²)

Length of Rafter = 25.1247 m

No. of Horizontal members at roof level = (25.1247 / 1.2) + 1 = 20.94 + 1 = 21.94

Says = 22 Nos

In 22 Nos,

Top most one is Ridge and Last one is Eave Strut.

Therefore Remaining Members are Purlin.

No. of Purlin for entire span = 2 x 20 = 40 Nos.

Step 3:-

No. of Girts = Height of column / Spacing

Height of Column = 12 m

Brick wall height = 2 m

Hence girts arranged in remaining 10 m

No. of Girts on one side = 10 / 1.5 = 6.67

Says 7 Nos

Total number of Girts on both side = 2 x 7 = 14 Nos.

Result:-

Number of Purlins on Entire span = 40 Nos
Number of Girts on both Side = 14 Nos
Number of Ridge = 1 No
Number of Eave Struts = 2 Nos

Ans 2)

Aim:-

To Taper the Beams according to BMD envelope and check Utility ratio within limit for the given STAAD file.

Procedure:-

Step 1:-

Open the given STAAD file in the STAAD Pro software.

Go to Analysis Tab and check whether the Parameters applied.
Then Click Run Analysis.
Output shows 0 Errors and 0 Warnings.

Step 2:-

Now select Utility Ratio, and see the Ratio for the beams.

Then Enable Beam Label to identify the beams.

Member Name	Tag	Utility Ratio	Remarks
End Column	1	0.634	The column is utilized for 63.4% only. We have to utilize the member according to BMD envelope.
Middle Column	5	0.863	In this column no moment is to be transferred as moment is released so its capacity can be utilized further up to 100% as in future this member is not supposed to carry moment
End Column	2	0.598	The column is utilized for 59.8% only. We have to utilize the member according to BMD envelope.
One Rafter	3	0.866	The Rafter is utilized for 86.6% only. We have to utilize the member according to BMD envelope.
Another Rafter	4	0.866	The Rafter is utilized for 86.6% only. We have to utilize the member according to BMD envelope.

Step 3:-

Now modify the Section properties.
Split the beam where ever required.
It is a Iterative process, modify the sections as utilize the section more effective.

Result:-

The given STAAD model was reviewed and modified to utilize the sections more effective for the given BMD envelope.

Assume:-

1) Terrain Category 3

2) Design life of the structure 50 years

3) Topography: Plane with upwind slope Ɵ < 3°

4) Roof Angle = 5°

Aim:-

To calculate the wind pressure on the wall of building with the given inputs.

Procedure:-

Step 1:-

Basic wind speed V_b = 50 m/s ( For Chennai as per IS 475 part-3 Fig. 1)

Design wind speed V_z = V_b x K₁ x K₂ x K₃ x K₄

Where K₁is Probability factor (risk coefficient) taken from Table 1

Considering general building and structure and V_b =50 m/s

K₁ = 1.0 for design life of structure 50 years & and for given Basic wind speed of 50 m/s

K₂ is Terrain roughness & height factor taken from Table 2

K₂ = 0.91

K₃ = Topography factor for Upwind slope < 3° from Clause 6.3.3

K₃ = 1.0

K₄ = Importance factor for cyclonic region for Industrial Structure from Clause 6.3.4

K₄ = 1.15

Therefore Vz = 1.0 x 0.91 x 1.0 x 1.15 x 50 = 52.325 m/s

Step 2:-

Wind pressure Pz = 0.6 (V_z)²

Where,

P_z = wind pressure at height z in N/m²

V_z = design wind pressure at height z in m/s

Therefore

P_z = 0.6 x (52.325)² = 1.643 kN/m²

Step 3:-

Design wind pressure P_d = K_d x K_a x K_c x P_z

Where,

K_d = wind directionality factor 1.0 for cyclone affected region

K_a = Area averaging factor 0.9 for tributary area < 25 m²

(Tributary area = 6 x 2.5 = 15 m²)

K_c = combination factor 0.9

Therefore

P_d = 1.0 x 0.9 x 0.9 x 1.643 = 1.331 kN/m²

Step 4:-

Wind load acting in a direction normal to the individual structural element or cladding unit

F = (C_pe – C_pi) x A x P_d

Where,

C_pi = internal pressure coefficient

C_pi = +0.5 and -0.5 for opening of 15% of wall area i.e. medium permeability (Clause 7.3.2.2 of IS :475, part 3)

External pressure coefficient:

L = 10 m; w = 5 m; h = 6 m

h/w = 6 / 5 = 1.2

l/w = 10 / 5 = 2

Thus as per table 5 of clause 7.3.3.1 of IS:475, Part 3

For 1/2 < h/w < 3/2 and 3/2 ≤ l/w < 4

Case-I Ɵ = 0°

C_pnet = C_pe- C_pi

For Wall A

C_pnet = +0.7 – (+0.5) = +0.2 (Pressure)

C_pnet = +0.7 – (-0.5) = +1.2 (Pressure)

Design Wind Force for Wall A

F = C_pnetx A x P_d

F_A = +0.2 x 6 x 2.5 x 1.331 = +3.993 kN (Pressure)

F_A = +1.2 x 6 x 2.5 x 1.331 = +23.958 kN (Pressure)

For Wall B

C_pnet = -0.3 – (+0.5) = -0.8 (Suction)

C_pnet = -0.3 – (-0.5) = +0.2 (Pressure)

Design Wind Force for Wall B

F = C_pnetx A x P_d

F_B = -0.8 x 6 x 2.5 x 1.331 = -15.972 kN (Suction)

F_B = +0.2 x 6 x 2.5 x 1.331 = +3.993 kN (Pressure)

For Wall C & D

C_pnet = -0.7 – (+0.5) = -1.2 (Suction)

C_pnet = -0.7 – (-0.5) = -0.2 (Suction)

Design Wind Force for Wall C & D

F = C_pnetx A x P_d

F_C&D = -1.2 x 6 x 5 x 1.331 = -47.916 kN (Suction)

F_C&D = -0.2 x 6 x 5 x 1.331 = -7.986 kN (Suction)

Case-II Ɵ = 90°

C_pnet = C_pe- C_pi

For Wall A & B

C_pnet = -0.5 – (+0.5) = -1.0 (Suction)

C_pnet = -0.5 – (-0.5) = 0.0

Design Wind Force for Wall A & B

F = C_pnetx A x P_d

F_A&B = -1.0 x 6 x 2.5 x 1.331 = -19.965 kN (Pressure)

F_A&B = 0.0 x 6 x 2.5 x 1.331 = 0.000 kN

For Wall C

C_pnet = +0.7 – (+0.5) = +0.2 (Pressure)

C_pnet = +0.7 – (-0.5) = +1.2 (Pressure)

Design Wind Force for Wall C

F = C_pnetx A x P_d

F_C = +0.2 x 6 x 5 x 1.331 = +7.986 kN (Pressure)

F_C = +1.2 x 6 x 5 x 1.331 = +47.916 kN (Pressure)

For Wall D

C_pnet = -0.1 – (+0.5) = -0.6 (Suction)

C_pnet = -0.1 – (-0.5) = +0.4 (Pressure)

Design Wind Force for Wall D

F = C_pnetx A x P_d

F_D = -0.6 x 6 x 5 x 1.331 = -23.958 kN (Suction)

F_D = +0.4 x 6 x 5 x 1.331 = +15.972 kN (Pressure)

Result:-

Maximum design Pressure on the Wall = 47.916 kN
