1 design of top chord

design load 240

ultimate design load 360
design top chord as compression members for 360kn
span 2.31
assume fcd= 110
pd=Ac*fcd
from above equation solve for Ac
Ac=pd/fcd 3272.7
select double angle from steel table
2ISA90*90*10mm
section properly of 2ISA90*90*10mm 90
Ac= 3406
rmin 27.3
effective length =0.85l 1.9635
slenderness rato=kl/r 71.92
from page 42 of IS800 for fy=250N/mm2 0.192
70 152
71.92 148.928
80 136
fcd for slederness ratio of 72.92 148.9
pd=Ac*fcd 507.2
Connection design
let us consider bolted connection using M16 grade 5.6
bolted
d 16
do 18
fub 500
edge distance =e 27
pitch distance =p 40
fu 410
shear
assume shear failure
shear=Vdpp=1/rmb(nn*Anb+ns*Asb)*fud/3^1/3
And=0.78*pi/4*d^2 156.8
Vdpp= 71.4
bearing capacity of bolt
Vdpb=1/rmb(2.5kb*d*t*fu) 64.39
kb is minimum of
kb=e/3d0 0.5
kb=p/3d0-0.25 0.491
kb=fub/fu 1.220
kb=1 1
Vdpp=bolt value is minimal of twu 64.39
number of bolt required =load/bolt value 5.59
