Approximate value for the transformation parameter, according to Table 5.4 (EN 1993-1-8):

Anchor tension reduction factor, according to EN 1090:

Poor bond conditions are considered.

Safety Coefficients
Structural steel Structural concrete:

- for bolts/anchors, welds, plates in bearing

Advance Design Steel Connection 2024 Page 4 of 12

 Project: Date: 12-02-2023

- for cross-sections in tension to fracture

- for reinforcing steel (EN 1992-1-1)

Corrosion conditions
EN 10025, the steel is used unprotected (without improved atmospheric corrosion resistance).
Conventions
Tension is considered positive (compression is considered negative).
Bending moment is considered positive if clockwise (in above
elevation).
Strong axis of the profile is considered "y-y" and weak axis "z-z".

Application domain:
The joint members are I or H construction steel profiles.

4 Holes distances conditions

Next, "Right" holes and "Left" holes refer to the joint part to which the holes belong (e.g. right plate).

4.1 Minimum distance conditions for round holes

Minimum holes edge distance on load direction (round holes)

EN 1993-1-8, Table 3.3

Right holes Passed
Minimum holes edge distance perpendicular on load direction (round holes)

EN 1993-1-8, Table 3.3

Right holes Passed
Minimum spacing between the centers of 2 holes, measured on the direction of the load

EN 1993-1-8, Table 3.3

Right holes Passed
Minimum spacing between the centers of 2 holes, measured perpendicular on the direction of the load

EN 1993-1-8, Table 3.3

Right holes Passed

4.2 Maximum distance for steel without improved atmospheric corrosion resistance

Note: Steel conforming to EN 10025-5*.

No verification of spacing between anchor bolt-rows (perpendicular on the load direction) is done.

* Verification to avoid local buckling and to prevent corrosion

5 Compression verifications

5.1 Compression resistance of the column

Column cross section design bending moment resistance reduced if necessary, to allow for shear force. Its
formula is shown below.
The column profile is class 1, so the moment resistance of the section is calculated using the plastic
modulus:

EN1993-1-1. 6.2.5
The Design Combined Compression Resistance of the Column Flange and the Adjacent Compression Zone
of the Column Web:
EN 1993-1-8, 6.2.6.7

5.2 Compression verification of the column base

Check relation:
Combination: [5]: Forces Max

Concrete compression resistance force under column base( 2 flanges+web )

EN 1992-1-1, 3.1.6(1)
+ 3.1.7(3)

For determining the compression resistance under the column base, an additional bearing width needs to
be determined:

EN 1993-1-8, 6.2.5(4)

Compression resistance of concrete under column flange

Advance Design Steel Connection 2024 Page 6 of 12

 Project: Date: 12-02-2023

The design bearing resistance under the base plate will be calculated considering the loaded area equal
with the maximum design distribution area having a similar shape.

EN 1993-1-8, 6.2.6.9
Effective bearing area

Calculation of the bearing pressure zone width

The bearing pressure zone exceeds the plate length:

EN 1993-1-8, 6.2.5(3)
c - available space outside the flange measured in the direction of the corresponding distance

Calculation of the bearing pressure zone length

EN 1993-1-8, 6.2.5(3)
Replacing the values of effective dimensions, the design bearing resistance becomes:
EN 1992-1-1, 6.7 (3)
Compression resistance of concrete under column web

EN 1992-1-1, 6.7 (3)

Replacing the values of effective dimensions, the design bearing resistance of the web becomes:

Anchor dimension conditions (EN1992-1-1 recommendations)

Length is determined starting from equivalent anchorage length (according to paragraph 8.4, EN 1992-1-

EN 1992-1-1, 8.4.2
where:

Replacing the above values, basic required anchorage length becomes:

EN 1992-1-1, 8.4.3 (2)
Next, we'll use the real anchorage length:

Minimum mandrel diameter

Minimum recommended mandrel diameter is (according to Table 8.1N, EN 1992-1-1):

Minimum anchorage length (l2)

WARNING: The length past the end of the bend is smaller than 5 diameters of the anchor
(Figure 8.1, EN 1992-1-1)!
Minimum recommended length is:
