Bracing Design for Phase III Expansion

1. The document summarizes the design of a gusset plate and welds required to brace angles in a structural connection. 2. It provides input data on the size of the angles and gusset plate thickness, then calculates the length of welds needed and the block shear strength of the single and double angle connections. 3. The calculations determine that the 8mm thickness of the gusset plate is adequate to resist the design forces for both single and double angle configurations.

Design of gusset plate for bracing and weld required :-

Input Data : -
Size of the angle = 50 x 50 x 6 Dimension in 'mm'
Thickness of gusset plate = 8 mm
Area of the cross section = 568 mm2
Centroid of the angle = 14.5 mm IS:808-1989
Ultimate tensile strength of the material (fu) = 410 N/mm2 Table No.5.1
Yield strength of the material (fy) = 250 N/mm2
Resistance governed by yielding (γm0) = 1.10 IS:800-2007
Resistance governed by ultimate strength (γm1) = 1.25 Table No.5
Partial safety factor for fillet weld (field welding) (γmw) = 1.50
Design force for the connection design = 129.09 kN IS:800-2007
Cl No.6.2 / 12.8.3.1
Calculation of length of weld required for axial tension :-
Assume size of the weld required (s) = 5.0 mm
Strength of the 5mm fillet weld (Rnw) = 552.3 N/mm IS:800-2007
Strength of the 5mm fillet weld (Rnw) = 0.5523 kN/mm Cl No.10.5.7.1.1
Length of the vertical weld (L2) = 50 mm Leg length (h) = 50
Force resisted by the weld - P2 = 27.62 kN
Force resisted by the weld - P1 = 23.63 kN
Force resisted by the weld - P3 = 77.85 kN
Length required for horizontal weld to carry P1,L1 = 42.78 mm
Length required for horizontal weld to carry P3,L3 = 140.94 mm
Length required for horizontal weld to carry P1,L1 = 45.00 mm
Length required for horizontal weld to carry P3,L3 = 145.00 mm

Check for block shear strength (Tbd) for single angle :-


Minimum gross and net area in shear (Avg) and (Avn) = 2320.0 mm2
Minimum gross and net area in tension (Atg) and (Atn) = 400.0 mm2
(Tdb) of the connection shall be taken as the smaller of
Tdb = ((Avg x fy) / (√3 x γm0)) + ((0.90 x Atn x fu) / (γm1)) = 422.5 kN IS:800-2007
Tdb = ((Atg x fy) / (γm0)) + ((0.90 x Avn x fu) / (√3 x γm1)) = 486.3 kN Cl No.6.4.1
Block shear strength of the connection (Tdb) = 422.5 kN
Block shear strength of the connection (Tdb) = 486.3 kN
Therefore Block Shear strength of the Connection = 422.5 kN

422.5 kN > 129.1 kN Thickness of the gusset plate is adequate

Check for block shear strength for double angles :-


Block Shear strength of the Connection = 422.5 kN

Design force for the connection design = 258.2 kN

422.5 kN > 258.2 kN Thickness of the gusset plate is adequate
