Tutorial #2

Problem 1:

A 7.0 m long 152 x 152 x 30 UC in grade S275


steel is to be used as a strut with pinned ends
and will carry axial load only. Determine its
compression resistance.
Problem 2:

A 254 x 254 x 89 UC in grade S275 steel is 6.0 m


long and is pinned at its ends in both planes. It
has a positional restraint located at its mid-height
that prevents lateral movement parallel to the
flanges. Determine its compression resistance.
The figure below shows a cantilever truss and
Problem 3: the ultimate loading. The bottom chord is
supported laterally at the nodes. Wind load not
to be considered.

Tasks:
3.1 Find the forces in members (1) and (3)
3.2 Check that the following sections are
satisfactory
-Member (1) 2x80x60x6 angles spaced at
8mm apart with spacing washers at
500mm centers

-Member (3) 75x50x6 angle

The angles are connected through the longer


legs, steel grade is S275 and end connections
are single bolts M20
