Structural Design and Strength Calculations of prestensioned Precast

Prestressed Concreate members of the Boundary Wall manufactured by
M/s Dayal Spun Pipes Pvt. Ltd, Meerut.

1. Sections as per Design :

a) I Section poles spaced at 2.26 m c/c, with 7 H.T. wires of 3 mm dia.
b) 4 panels of 300x50x2135 mm fitted in the notch with 4 H.T. wires of 3 mm dia.

2. Assumptions:
a) Prestressing wires used are conforming to IS : 1785.
b) Concrete used is M-30 conforming to IS : 1343-2012
c) All quality assurance for work is as per IS : 1343 and IS : 456
d) Min. Spacing is as per IS : 1343-2012.
e) Min. Dia of wire is as per IS : IS : 1785.
f) Grade of Grouting material or concrete is M-30 conforming to IS : 1343-2012

3. Details Provided :
(i) Ht. of wall = 1.775m above GL & 0.535 m below GL, Total Ht. = 2.31m.
(ii) Column spacing = 2.135+0.125=2.26 m c/c.
(iii) Column size = 175x125, Column cut size = 50*25, 2 nos.
(iv) Cross Sectional Area = 175*125-2x50x25 =19375 mm2 or 0.019375m2
(v) Moment of Inertia = 175*1253 / 12-2x503*25/12 = 27373906.2mm4.
(vi) Size of panel = 50*300*2135, No. of panels =4.
(vii) Wire Used= 3 mm dia, fy=1.865 kn/mm2 , vide IS: 1785.
(viii) Area of cross section of wire = 7.07 mm2 .

Max force of pull = 18.75 KN/mm2 . On one wire.

Effective prestress after all losses = 0.45 fp (fp = characteristic strength of
prestressing steel)
Efective prestress= 8.44 KN in one wire

4. Analysis (wind pressure) :

Category-2, Class=A, Vb = m/sec, vide IS: 875 (pt-3)
K1 = 0.71, k2=1, k3=1
Design Wind Speed = Vz = 33.37m/s
Design Wind Pressure = Pz = 0.66813414 kN/m2
Volume of Column 0.045 m3 or Wt. = 1.125 KN
Ap =49.49, fp =1.715

Volume of one panel = 32025000 mm3 , or = 0.0321 m3

Therefore wt = 3.21 KN (4-Panels)
Total Load of one span = 4.335 KN
Design Horizontal Wind Load on the Column = 3.59 KN
Acting at ht. of 0.89 m about GL.

5. Design check of cantilever column :

Wind Moment on the column = 3.2 KNm
Factored wind moment = 4.8 KNm
Tensile Strength fp =1.715 KN/mm2
Moment of resistance = fpuAp*(d-0.4xu) [Table 11 & Appx. B IS:1343-1980]
D= 175-20-1.5, d=153.5mm.

Ap f p/ bd fck = 0.17 (Ap - Area of pretensioning tendons in the tension zone)

fpu / 0.87fp = 1.0 , fpu = 1.492 (fpu - tensil stress in tendon at failur.

Xu / d = 0.37 , Xu = 47.36

Mr = fpuAp*(d-0.4xu)= 9.45 kN-m

> 4.8 kN-m Hence Safe.

6. Design check of panels:

Length = 2135, Width=300, Thickness=50 with 4 wires of 3 mm dia.
Design wind load = 0.20 KN/m , D.W. Moment = 0.114 KNm
Factored wind moment = 0.171 KNm
D=25mm, fp=1715N/mm2 Ap=28.28 mm2

A p f p/ bd fck = 0.22

fpu / 0.87fp = 1.0 , fpu = 1.492

Xu / d = 0.37 , Xu = 11.95

Mr = fpuAp*(d-0.4xu) = 1.492*28.28*(25-0.42*11.95) = 0.843 kN-m

> 0.114 kN-m , Hence Safe.
