A. Horizontal Member
1 Loading
Staircase Case 1: (Horizontal UDL) 0.74 kN/m
Case 2: UDL applied to the infill of kN/2 1.00 kN/m2
Case 3: Point Load applied to part of the infill kN 0.50 kN

2 Horizontal Main Member

UDL

h= 1180 mm

Main Member 50 x 2.5 mm Steel Gr. 275

Spacing (c-c of support) 1180 mm = 1.18 m
Factor, x = 1.5 (Eurocode, Qk)
B= = 2.5 mm thickness of CHS
D= = 50 mm ,dia of CHS 47.5
h= 1000 mm = 1 m ,height of railing
Fy= = 205 N/mm2
Py= = 205 N/mm2

3 Load Calculation
Case 1
P= x*UDL*tributary width = 1.3098 kN
M= PL/4 = 0.386391 kN-m

Case2
W= x*UDL*tributary width*D = 0.07500 kN
2
M= WL /8 = 0.01305 kN-m

Case3
P= = 0.50000 kN
M= PL/4 = 0.1475 kN-m

Therefore,max
P= 1.30980 kN
M= 0.38639 kN ,maximum Moment at the support

4 Capactiy check

4.1 Moment Capcity

3
S= 2,276 mm ,section modulus along major axis ((PI()*(D^4-d^4))/32*D)

Mc= PyS PySx = 466,652 N-mm = 0.467 kN-m therefore:Okay BS 5950 4.2.5.2

4.2 Shear Capactiy

Fv= 1.30980 kN
0.6Pv*Av = 19.8 kN > 1.3098 therefore:Okay BS 5950 4.2.5.3
DC ratio= 0.06615

Therefore, provide 50 mm x 2.5 mm thk with spacing of 1180 mm c/c

4.3 Deflection
W= 0.74000 kN/m = 0.74000 N/mm
L= 1.18000 m = 1180.0 mm
E= 180000 N/mm2
I= 105507.2 mm3 c= 25.0 mm

 = 0.1967 mm

allowable deflectiion = 5.9 mm > 0.1967 therefore:Okay
