STABILITY CALCULATION OF ANCHOR LOOP (U-BOLT)-FOR 3600 Kg TERMINATION TENSION LOAD

1. INPUT DATA

Unit weight of concrete W' = 2400 Kg/m3

Grade of concrete used in parapet wall of RFO (Fck) M15 = 15 N/mm2
Permissible Bond Stress in concrete for M 15 Grade Tbd = 0.6 N/mm2 Refer Appendix-A
Angle of loading (on a conservative side) α = 45 degree
Anchor Load applied- Shear Force on the Bolt / Anchor Loop F= F2 = 3600 kg
Force acting in Guy rod E = (3600/cos(45))
= 5092 kg
F1 = (5092x sin(45))
Vertical component of anchor load- Tension in the Bolt / Anchor Loop
3600.58773 Kg
Diameter of the Bolt / Anchor Loop D = 32 mm
Embedment Length of the Bolt / Anchor Loop inside the concrete H = 400 mm
Grade of Bolt / Anchor Loop = 4.6 Refer Appendix-B
Permissible Axial Stress in Bolt = 120 N/mm2 Refer Appendix-B
Permissible Shear Stress in Bolt = 80 N/mm2 Refer Appendix-B

2. STABILITY CHECK OF BOLT / ANCHOR LOOP

Axial Force on each Bolt Fp'= F1/2 = 1800.3 Kg

Shear Force on each Bolt F1 = 3600 Kg

C/S area of each Bolt (0.78 x 3.14 /4 x DxD) = 627.4 mm2

Actual Axial Stress in each Bolt 1800.3 X 9.81 / 627.4 = 28.15 N/mm2
Actual Shear Stress in each Bolt 3600 X 9.81 / 627.4 = 56.29 N/mm2

Check: (As per Cl.8.9.4.5 of IS 800) Refer Appendix-C

Actual Axial Stress in each Bolt Actual Shear Stress in each Bolt
+ < 1.4
Permissible Axial Stress in Bolt Permissible Shear Stress in Bolt

28.15 56.29
+ = 0.94 < 1.4
120 80

HENCE ,BOLT IS SAFE IN COMBINED SHEAR AND TENSION

3. EMBEDMENT LENGTH CALCULATION OF BOLT / ANCHOR LOOP

Axial Pull on each Bolt Fp'= F1/2 = 1800.3 Kg

Required Embedment Length H= (Fp'*9.81)/(pi x D x Tbd) = 292.79 mm HENCE, PROVIDED EMBEDMENT

LENGTH IS SAFE

Hence Provide an Embedment Length of 400 mm Inside the Concrete and Standard Length of Bolt / Anchor Loop Above the Concrete Shall be
Provided as Shown in the Drawing no………...

Grout Hole Dia. Shall be Provided 50 mm and Grout Hole Depth Shall be Provided 450 mm Inside the Concrete.

The Grouting Material To Be Used To Fix The Bolt / Anchor Loop Inside The Concrete Shall Have Minimum Bond Stress Equivalent To M35 Grade Of
Concrete , Same Which Has Been Used In Bridge Mast Supporting Arrangement At Bridge No. 26.
