DESIGN CALCULATIONS FOR CLADDING

Critical case shall be cladding at h=53.225+5.6=58.825m, S2=1.14

Basic wind pressure = 4.82 KN.m‐2

Take Cp = ‐1.2, local basic wind pressure = 5.78KN.m‐2

1.1 Check capacity of 4mm thick composite aluminum panel

DESIGN CALCULATIONS FOR CLADDING

The maximum width is 1160mm.

Take width of panel = 1000mm

Bending moment = 1.2x5.78x0.382/8

= 0.125 KN.m

Section module = 1000x42/6 = 2667 mm3

Moment capacity of panel =ρ0Ze/γm

= 110x2667/1.2=0.24 KN.m > 0.125 KN.m ok

1.2 Check capacity of aluminum stiffener

Max span of stiffener = 1160mm

VDL = 1.2x5.78x0.38 = 2.64 kN.m‐1

Bending moment = 2.64x1.162/8 = 0.44 KN.m

For element under uniform compression for unreinforced flat element

β= 39/3 = 13 <β1 = 18x(250/po)1/2 = 27 2

DESIGN CALCULATIONS FOR CLADDING

Therefore, section is considered as compact.

Moment capacity of stiffener =ρ0Ze/γm

= 110x4879/1.2 = 0.447KN.m > 0.44KN.m ok

Deflection δ = (5x5.78x0.38x11604)/(384x70000x118863) = 6.2 mm

Allowable deflection = 1160/120 = 9.7mm ok

1.3 Check capacity of structural sealant bite

Capacity of Dow corning silicone is 138 N.mm‐2

Length of bite required = 0.5x5.78x0.38x1000/138 = 7.95mm = 8mm

Provide 8mm + 8mm bite

1.4 Check capacity of Ф5mm aluminum pop rivets holding the panel to the angle

DESIGN CALCULATIONS FOR CLADDING

Maximum applied load on the 4 rivets = 1.2x5.78x1.16x0.38

=3.06KN or 0.76KN per rivet

For Ф5mm aluminum rivet, take diameter 4.5mm

Effective area As= 15.9mm2

Shear capacity = 0.6xρf x As/γm

= 0.6x110x15.9/1.2

= 0.875KN > 0.76KN ok

1.5 Check capacity of 3mm thick aluminum angle

For angle placed @max 340mm C/C

Wind force Q = 1.2x5.78x0.34x1.16 = 2.74KN or 1.37KN per angle

Bending moment in angle = Qrivet x eccentricity

=1.37x6x1000 = 8220 N.mm

Section module = 60x32/6 = 90 mm3

Moment capacity = ρ0 x Ze/γm

= 110x90/1.2 = 8250 N.mm > 8220N.mm ok 4

1.6 Check capacity of 1‐ M6x25mmL stainless steel screws @400mm C/C

(fixation of angle supporting cladding panel to mullion)

The applied load = 1.37KN

Tensile capacity =ρt x∏x62/(4xγm)

= 174x3.14x36/(4x1.2) = 4.1KN > 1.37KN ok
