Assignment 1 1

1. The document is a final exam for a structural steel design course. It consists of 5 questions testing various aspects of structural steel design, including designing steel truss layouts, beam sections, bolted connections, and truss member sections. 2. The first three questions are mandatory and cover designing a steel truss layout for a building, sizing secondary and main floor beams, and designing bolted truss member connections. 3. The remaining two questions allow the student to choose one, and involve designing bolted truss to column connections and a pretension bolted connection detail. Various steel grades and bolt types are specified for the connection designs.

Final Examination
Subject: Structural Steel Design (I) Code: CEM 310
Examiner: Dr. Eman Farouk Time Allowed: 180 minutes
Dr. Ashraf Mohamed
Number of Pages: 2 Number of Questions: 5 Attempt 4 Questions

Instructions:
1- Answer the mandatory questions Q1, Q2 &Q3, and choose one question only from the questions Q4 or Q5.
2- Steel used is steel 37 (Fu = 3.6 t/cm2, Fy = 2.4 t/cm2)
Ques on 1, (12 Marks)

It is required to cover the area shown in figure Q.1


with steel trusses. The clear height of the used
trusses is 6.00m. Columns are allowed along
(abcdef) only.
L1 = L2 = 18m
B1 = 24m & B2 = 20m
1) Draw to scale 1:00 a complete general layout
showing all necessary sections.
2) Write brief notes on:
a. Advantages and disadvantages of steel
structures.
b. Function of Longitudinal Bracing.
Figure Q.1
Ques on 2, (12 Marks)
For the system of floor beams shown in Figure Q.2. The floor
beams support 10 cm R.C slab with floor cover of 150 kg/m2,
and live load of 300 kg/m2. All beam connections are simple
connections. It is required to:
a. Design a suitable section for secondary beam and main
beam.
b. Design the connection between secondary beam and main
beam using non-pretension bolts M16 (4.6) and draw its detail
with scale 1/10.

Ques on 3, (8 Marks)

Truss members in Figure Q.3


are bolted with 10mm thick
gusset plate using non-
pretension bolts M16 grade
(5.6). It is required to:
- Design a suitable section
for the marked members (a-b)
and (c-d) (Case I).
Figure Q.3
Ques on 4, (8 Marks)

Figure Q.4 represents the main truss-to-column connection at


joints (L). Using bearing type non-pretension bolts M16 grade
(4.6) threads are excluded from plan of shear, it is required to:
1) Design bolted connection (L) between truss members and
steel column (Case I).
2) Draw to scale 1:10 the part enclosed by the dotted rectangle.
Assume reasonable sections for the un-designed elements.

Figure Q.4
Ques on 5, (8 Marks)

For detail shown in figure Q.5, design the bolted


connection using M16 grade (10.9) pretension bearing
bolts, threads are excluded from plan of shear.
