General

This section covers the connection design for SCH, which consists of moment,
vertical bracing, A-brace, tie beam, beam to beam with or without plan brace
and column splice connections.

Shear Cleat design:

Shear Cleat (Plate and angle) are designed to transfer beam shear to column
safely. It is designed for 80% shear capacity of beam section. For shear plate,
Butt weld is provided to connect column flange and fillet weld is provided to
connect beam web. For shear angle, Fillet weld is provided for both column
flange and beam web connection.

Rib Plate Design:

Rib plate is provided to support beam during erection and connection process.
It is a vertical plate designed for bearing, shear and moment. Depth of the rib
plate is connected to column flange using fillet weld (which is designed for
bending and shear).

Horizontal Stiffener Design:

Horizontal stiffener are provided on the line of Beam flange. These are provided
to stiffen the column flange (Bending of flange) and web (Bucking and Crippling
of web). Stiffeners are designed for these effects. Welds are designed to transfer
of web). Stiffeners are designed for these

Diagonal stiffener Design:

Diagonal stiffener are provided, on both sides of column web, is to increase the
shear carrying capacity of the web and to avoid shear bucking of plates. Stiffener
are designed for net shear, developed due to concentrated beam flange forces
and column shear.
Diagonal stiffeners are cut at location where cross tie beams are connected to the
web of column.
One Typical detailed calculation for the above components in a connection is
shown. For rest refer summary sheet.

Allowable shear strength of fillet weld = 86 N/mm2 (field weld )
Allowable shear strength of butt weld = 80 N/mm2 (field weld )

Load Calculation :
Shear capacity of Connecting Beam = 0.4x0.8x250x6.9x(250-2x12.5)/1000
V=0.4*fy*dw*tw*0.8 = 124 kN

Design for Shear:


Beam shear is transferred to column by shear connection, shear plate on one side
(0.5*V) and shear angle on the other (0.5*V). Design of shear plate or angle is done
to take care of shear and moment. Weld between shear cleat and web is designed
for shear and weld between shear cleat and column flange is designed for shear
and moment .shear cleat and column flange is designed for shear and moment
(Shear acting eccentrically). Design shear is taken as 80% of beam shear capacity.

Design of Shear Plate:


Shear Plate is designed for shear and moment (shear x plate width). Weld between
column flange and shear plate is of butt type (Full strength) and weld between shear
plate and web is of fillet type, which is designed for shear.

SF at Critical section, V1 V1=0.5*V = 62 kN


BM at Critical section, M1 M1=V1*Bsc = 4.7 kN-m

Shear capacity of Shear-Plate 0.4*fy*(Dsp - 3*fBolt)*Tsp = 110 kN Safe

Design of Shear Angle:


Shear Angle is designed for shear and moment (shear x plate width). Weld between
column flange and shear angle is of Fillet type (Both ends), which is designed for
shear and moment and web between shear angle and weld is of fillet type,
which is designed for shear.

SF at Critical section, V1 V1=0.5*V = 62 kN

Beam moment is transferred directly to column flange, through beam flanges,
by full penetration butt weld. Design strength of full penetration butt weld is equal
to its parent metal (Beam). Hence, Calculation for design of beam moment is not

Beam shear is transferred to column by shear connection,shear plate on one side
(0.5*V) and shear angle on the other (0.5*V).Design of shear plate or angle is done
to take care of shear and moment. Weld between shear cleat and web is designed
for shear and weld between shear cleat and column flange is designed for shear
and moment .shear cleat and column flange is designed for shear and moment
(Shear acting eccentrically).Design shear is taken as 80% of beam shear capacity.

Shear Plate is designed for shear and moment (shear x plate width).Weld between
column flange and shear plate is of butt type (Full strength) and weld between
shear plate and web is of fillet type, which is designed for shear.

DESIGN OF ERECTION SPLICE FOR BUILT-UP COLUMN: C1

(a) Geometry of Top Built-up Column


Depth of Section D1 = 910 mm
Width of flange plate = 305 mm
Thickness of flange plate = 40 mm
Width of cover plate b1 = 0 mm
Thickness of cover plate tf1 = 0 mm
Depth of web plate h1 = 830 mm
Thickness of web plate tw1 = 32 mm
Area of flange plate Af = 12200 mm2
Area of web Aw = 26560 mm2

(b) Geometry of Bottom Built-up Column


Depth of Section D2 = 910 mm
Width of flange plate = 305 mm
Thickness of flange plate = 40 mm
Width of cover plate b2 = 0 mm
Thickness of cover plate tf2 = 0 mm
Depth of web plate h2 = 830 mm
Thickness of web plate tw2 = 32 mm

(c) MATERIAL PROPERTIES :


Yield Strength of Rolled Memb. = 250 N/mm2
Yield Strength of Plate t <= 20 = 250 N/mm2
Yield Strength of Plate 20< t <= 40 = 240 N/mm2
Yield Strength of Plate t > 40 = 230 N/mm2
Allowable shear strength of fillet weld = 108 N/mm2 (shop weld )

Page 550
Allowable shear strength of fillet weld = 86 N/mm2 (field weld )
Allowable shear strength of butt weld = 80 N/mm2 (field weld )
(d) Design of Column Flange Splice
Nos. of splice plate per flange = 1
Width of splice plate = (305-55) = 250 mm
50 % Area of Flange = 12200 * 0.5 = 6100 mm2
10% increase in Flange area = 6100* 1.1 = 6710 mm2
Thickness required = 6710/250 = 26.8 mm
Thickness of splice plate Provided = 32 mm Safe

Permissible stress for Flange splice plate = 0.6*240 = 144 N/mm2


Capacity of Column flange = 144*12200*1.1 = 1932480 N
Force to be carried by splice plate = 1932480*0.5 = 966240 N
(where 50% of force to be carried by full penetration Butt weld & other 50% of force to be
carried by splice plate)

Size of weld Provided = 18 mm


Capacity of mm weld size = 0.707*18*108 = 1374.408 N/mm
80 % of weld capacity (field weld) = 0.8*1374.408 = 1099.53 N/mm
Weld length required = 966240/1099.52 = 878.78 mm
Weld length required on one side of flange = 878.77835402587= 878.78 mm
Vertical weld length reqd on one side = (878.7783540258= 314.39 mm
Length of the plate required = (314.3891770129= 678.78 mm
(including 50mm unwelded length)
Length of Splice plate provided = 1200 mm Safe

(e) Design of Column Web Splice


Nos. of splice plate = 2
Width of splice plate = 350 mm
50 % Area of Web = 26560 * 0.5 = 13280 mm2
10% increase in Web area = 13280* 1.1 = 14608 mm2
Total Thickness required = 14608/350 = 41.7 mm
Thickness reqd for each plate = 41.73714285714 = 20.9 mm
Thickness of splice plate Provided = 25 mm Safe

Permissible stress for Web splice plate = 0.6*240 = 144 N/mm2


Capacity of Column web = 144*26560*1.1 = 4207104 N
Force to be carried by splice plate = 4207104*0.5 = 2103552 N
(where 50% of force to be carried by full penetration Butt weld & other 50% of force to be
carried by splice plate)

Size of weld Provided = 16 mm


Capacity of mm weld size = 0.707*16*108 = 1221.70 N/mm
80 % of weld capacity (field weld) = 0.8*1221.696 = 977.36 N/mm
Weld length required = 2103552/977.35 = 2152.29 mm
Weld length required on one side of web = 2152.2866572371= 1076.14 mm
Vertical weld length reqd on one side = (1076.143328618= 363.07 mm

Page 551
Length of the plate required = (363.0716643092= 776.14 mm
(including 50mm unwelded length)
Length of Splice plate provided = 1000 mm Safe
