Project 2 - Review of Shear, Moment & Splice connections in StaadPro Connection Module

Aim :

• To determine the Typical shear, moment and Splice joints in Staad Connection module for the following 2D portal framed structure modelled in staadpro are required to be designed  with following inputs/data-Also report to be Generated.

 

Given data:

• Supports o 2D Frame                      :    Fixed support
• Spann                                               :    15m
• Roof                                                :    Pitched roof
• Ridge height                                     :   12m
• Slope                                                :   4 degrees 
• Load                                                 :   UDL of 10 kN/m on roof beam
• Stees Section                                    :   Hot rolled
• Splice joint location                          :   At 6 m from base 
• Hanger beam                                     :    Shear connected with column support of 4 m height from splice joint with a length of 3m with a beam column corner joint carrying 5 kN/m load and 5 KNhorizontal force 
• Also Design and optimize base plate connection. Optimise beam and column for 85% utilization

 

Procedure :

 

2D portal frame as per given data  and loading is shown below-

3D view of 2D portal frame- 

Load assignment 

(i) Dead load-Self weight

(ii) Live load- 10 KN/m on roof beam

(iii) Live load- 5 KN/m on hanger beam

(iv) Live load- Horizontal force of 5 KN

Joints are created and will be designed one by one in the steps to follow[-

 

Up to the steps  are common to all joint design

 

DESIGN OF COLUMN SPLICE JOINT AT NODE NO. 7 BETWEEM MEMBER 1 & 8

 

Optimization of design- Joiunt is optimized to the utilization ratio 0.86 as shown below-

 

Report- Various design data are shown below-

 

Report- Design results and their permissible values-

 

 

 

 

• As seen from above the  Column splice joint is 86% utilizes which is  less than 100% but close to it.
• Thus design is safe from geometrical consideration as well as  from strength criteria
