TITLE: DESIGN CALCULATION OF FENCE POST CALCULATION

WIND LOAD CALCULATION AS PER IS 875 -LATEST CODE

Wind Pressure Calculation

Input Date:-

Basic Wind Speed, Vb = 44 m/sec

Calculation:-

Design Wind Speed VR = Vb x K1 x K2 x k3

Where
K1 = Risk Coefficient, refer Table 1
K2 = Terrain roughness coefficient -Table -2
K3 = Topograpy factor
Wind Zone = 1
Therefore,
K1 = 1.08
K2 = 1.07
K3 = 1

Design Wind Speed Vd = 44 x 1.08 x 1.07

Vd = 50.85 m/sec

Design Wind pressure Pd = 0.6 VZ2

= 0.6 x 50.85^ 2

Pd = 1551.434 N/m2

Pd = 159.0 kg/m2

Design Wind pressure ---- kg/sqm = 159.0

 TITLE: DESIGN CALCULATION OF FENCE POST CALCULATION

1.0 GENERAL DATA:

1.1 Equipment Drawing No. = XXXX

1.2 Equipment make = NA
1.3 Total height of fence post from FGL = 3000 mm
1.4 Spacing of fence post = 3000 mm

1.5 Plinth height = 250 mm

1.6 Density of concrete = 24 N./mm²

2.0 LOAD CALCULATION

Wind pressure in X or Y directions = 159 Kg./m²

2.1 Wind loads

a) Wind on fence & structure = 3 x 3 x 159 x 0.10
= 143 Kg

b) Moment due to wind = F h/2

= 143 x 3.0
2
Activate moment = 214.5 kgm

d) Vertical load of fence for 3 m span = 150 kg

3.0 FOUNDATION SIZE

Size of pedestal d = 750 x 750 mm
Foundation depth h = 1150 m
No. of pedestal = 1
Plinth height = 0 m
Density of concrete = 24 kN/m3
Angle of repose = 30 deg
Density of soil = 15 kN/m3

4.0 OVER TURNING CHECK

Weight of Concrete = 1552.5 kg

Weight of fence = 150 kg

Total load = 1702.5 Kg

= 1702.5 x 0.9
= 1532.25
Restoring moment = 1532.2 x 0.75
2
= 574.5937 kgm

Moment about fdn base = 143 x 1.15

= 164.45 kgm
Over turning Moment = 164.45 + 214.5
= 378.95 kgm
F.O.S against Over turning = 574.5937
378.95
= 1.52 > 1.5
5.0 RESISTING MOMENT
Passive pressure = 1/2 x b x h x l
b = ka r h
Ka = (1+sin 30) / (1-sin 30) = 3
b = 5175 Kg./m²
Resisting load = 2231.7 Kg.
Moment = 855.4922 Kgm

F.O.S = Resisting moment 855.4922

Activate moment = 214.5
= 3.988 > 1.5
