WF Base Plate Design Based on AISC Manual 13th Edition (AISC 360-05)

INPUT DATA & DESIGN SUMMARY

AXIAL LOAD OF COMPRESSION Pa = 29.3 kips, ASD 13 ton.
STEEL PLATE YIELD STRESS Fy = 35 ksi
CONCRETE STRENGTH fc' = 3 ksi
COLUMN SIZE => W12X58
BASE PLATE SIZE N = 16.0 in 406 mm.
B = 11.8 in 300 mm.
AREA OF CONCRETE SUPPORT A2 = 188.8 in2
(geometrically similar to and concentric with the loaded area.)

USE
16.0 x 11.8 ≈ 410 X 300 mm.
3/8 in thick plate
