CONNECTION DESIGN CALCULATION

ANALYSIS OF EXTERNAL FORCES


Design Load , P = 1.4(33.5) + 1.6(30) = 95 kN (Use 190kN for both side)

𝑃 190
Direct shear force, Fv,Ed = = = 24 kN
𝑛 8

𝑃.𝑒.𝑦1
Tension force , Ft,Ed =
2 ∑ 𝑦2

∑ 𝑦 2 = y12 + y22+ y32 = 702 + 1602 + 2602 = 98100 mm2

ymax = 260 mm
190 𝑥 200 𝑥 260
Ft,Ed = = 50.36 kN
2(98100)
RESISTANCE AGAINST EXTERNAL FORCES
Shear resistance of one bolt
𝑎𝑣 𝑓𝑢𝑏 𝐴𝑠
Fv,Rd =
𝛾𝑣

For bolt grade 8.8 , 𝑎𝑣 = 0.6

Assume shear occurred at the threaded section, hence shear area, A = At = 245mm2

Fub = 800 N/mm2

0.6 𝑥 800 𝑥 245 𝑥 10−3


Fv,Rd = 1.25
= 94.08 kN

Tension resistance of one bolt


𝑘2 𝑓𝑢𝑏 𝐴𝑠
Ft,Rd = 𝛾𝑚2

k2 = 0.9 for normal bolt

0.9 𝑥 800 𝑥 245 𝑥 10−3


Ft,Rd = = 141.12 kN
1.25

Interaction between shear and tension forces :


𝐹𝑣,𝐸𝑑 𝐹
𝐹𝑣,𝑅𝑑

≤ 1.0

0.51 ≤ 1.0 , ok

The connection can support the load safely.
