 Maximun Moment Reaction

1) Pu = 55941 kg
Mu = 44506 kg.m

Pu = 123.33 kips
Mu = 3862.91 kips.in

2) Use

N= 41.14 in (see previous calculation)

B= 17.72 in (see previous calculation)

3) Determine e and ecrit

e= 31.32 in

fp(max) = 1.65 ksi

qmax = 29.24 kips/in

ecrit = 18.46 in

Because e >= ecrit, this is the case of a base plate with a large moment
Assume that the anchor rod edge distance is 2 in.

f= 18.57 in
(f + N/2)^2 = 1532 in^2

2Pu(e+f)/qmax = 420.92 in^2

420.92 <= 1532

4) Determine bearing length, Y, and anchor rod tension, Tu

Y= 72.48 in
Y= 5.81 in

Y= 5.81 in
Tu = 46.47 kips

5) Determine minimum plate thickness.

At bearing interface:

m= 4.68 in
fp = fp(max)
fp = 1.65 ksi

Because Y >=m

tp(req) = 1.49 in
 At tension interface:

x= 2.21 in
tp(req) = 0.85 in

Check the thickness using the value of n

n= 4.13 in
tp(req) = 1.32 in

The bearing interface governs the design of the base

plate thickness. Use 1 3/8". plate.

Use Base Plate 1045x450x35mm

6) From previous calculations, Tu = 46.47 kips.

If three anchor bolts are used in each face on the column, the force per rods equal 15.49 kips
From Table 3.1, the design strength of 1-in.-diameter ASTM F1554 Grade 36 anchor rods is 25.6 kips

The pullout strength of each anchor rod with a heavy hex nut is selected from Table 3.2 as 25.2 kips,
which is greater than the required strength per rod of 15.49 kips.

For completeness, determine the embedment length for the anchor rods.
Try 18 in. of embedment.

The design concrete breakout strength is:

Considering the ratio between areas = 1

= 94593 lb

= 94.59 kips >= 46.47 kips OK

For moderate or high seismic risk, ACI 318-08 indicates that the strength of anchors is to be multiplied by 0.75. In t
case, the steel strength would be 0.75(25.6) kips = 19.2 kips per rod (we need at least 17.33 kips). The anchor rod

Use 6 Rods 1" x 18" ASTM F1554 Grade 36 or similar

7) Maximun shear force is:

Vu = 7026 kg

Vu = 15.49 kips
 Stresses in rods:
fv = 3.29 ksi <= 17.4 ksi OK

By inspection1/2-in. plate washers will suffice even with minimal edge distance. Thus, the lever arm can be taken
as one half of the sum of the base plate thickness and 0.500 in, the base plate thickness is 1.375in

Lever arm = 0.94 in

Thus:

Mt = 0.39 kip.in
Z= 0.17 in^2

ftb = 2.34 ksi

fta = 19.73 ksi

The tensile stress is:

ft = 22.07 ksi

Combined shear and tension strength:

Fnt = 43.5 ksi

Fnv = 23.2 ksi

= 36.25 ksi <= 32.63 ksi Use 0.75Fnt

= 32.63 ksi >= 22.07 ksi OK
