Check Block Shear capacity
case 1:
Tensile length, Lt = ed (Section - 6.2.4, Page no. 133)
= 70 mm
Shear length, Lv = ( nr - 1 ) x p + ev
= ( 2 - 1 ) x 75 + 40
= 115 mm
Eff. net area coefficient, Ke = 1.2 ( for S275 Material )
k = 2
Block Shear Capacity, Prp1 = 2 x 0.6 x pyp x tp x [Lvi + Ke (Lt – k x dh ) ] / 1000
= 2 x 0.6 x 265 x 16 x [115 + 1.2 (70 – 2 x 26 ) ] / 1000
= 695 kN
case 2:
Tensile length, Lt = (nc - 1) x g (Section - 6.2.4, Page no. 133)
= 140 mm
Shear length, Lv = ( nr - 1 ) x p + ev
= ( 2 - 1 ) x 75 + 40
= 115 mm
Eff. net area coefficient, Ke = 1.2 ( for S275 Material )
k = 2
Block Shear Capacity, Prp2 = 0.6 x pyp x tp x [Lvi + Ke (Lt – k x dh ) ] / 1000
= 0.6 x 265 x 16 x [115 + 1.2 (140 – 2 x 26 ) ] / 1000
= 561.2 kN
Φ = ( pyp + ( η + 1 ) x pE ) / 2
= ( 265 + ( 0.17 + 1 ) x 477.71 ) / 2
= 411.97 N/mm2
Permissible comp. pc = ( pE x pyp ) / [ Φ + ( Φ2 - pE x pyp )0.5 ]
stress, = ( 477.71 x 265 ) / [ 411.97 + ( 411.97^2 - 477.71 x 265 )^0.5 ]
= 204.3 N/mm2
542786012.xls
Compression Capacity, PC = Min[ Wg , (g + 2 x (nr -1) x p x TAN(30°) ] x tp x pc / 1000
= Min[ 293 , (70 + 2 x (2 - 1) x 75 x TAN(30°) ] x 16 x 204.3 / 1000
= 511 kN
PC (511kN) > Fx (450kN) : Therefore O.K.
Tension Capacity, PT = Min[ Ag x pyp , Ke x Anet x pyp] / 1000 (Section - 4.6.1, Page no. 77)
= Min[ 4688 x 265 , 1.2 x 3856 x 265] / 1000
= Min[ 1242320 , 1226208] / 1000
= 1226.2 kN
PT (1226.2kN) > Fx (450kN) : Therefore O.K.
542786012.xls
Size of weld required, sreqd = FR x 1000 / ( 0.7 x pw )
= 0.609662638694643 x 1000 / ( 0.7 x 220 )
= 3.96 mm
Therefore, Provide = 4 mm CFW.
