This document provides the results of a design analysis for a rectangular steel floor plate subjected to uniform live loading. The plate has dimensions of 30 feet by 6.6 feet, is 13/16 inches thick, and can have either pinned or fixed edges. The analysis calculates the maximum flexural stress and deflection of the plate under a uniform live load of 250 psf. The results indicate that the maximum stress of 13.83 ksi is less than the allowable stress of 27 ksi, and the maximum deflection of 0.6936 inches results in a deflection ratio greater than the allowable ratio of S/100, indicating the design is adequate.

STEEL CHECKERED FLOOR PLATE DESIGN


For Rectangular Flat Plates Subjected to Uniformly Distributed Live Loading
with Either All Edges Pinned or All Edges Fixed (per AISC 9th Edition ASD Manual)
Job Name: Subject:
Job Number: Originator: Checker:

Input Data:

Long Span of Plate, L = 30.0000 ft. S=6.6 S


Short Span of Plate, S = 6.6000 ft.
Plate Thickness, t = 13/16 in.
Uniform Live Load, wLL = 250.00 psf
All Edges Condition = Pinned
Yield Stress, Fy = 36.00 ksi L=30 L
Allow. Deflection Ratio = S/100

w(total)=284.2 w(total)

All Edges Pinned All Edges Fixed

Nomenclature for Rectangular Flat Plates


Results:

Flexural Stress:
Unif. Dead Load, wDL = 34.20 psf wDL = floor plate self-weight in psf (per Reference #1)
Unif. Load, w(total) = 284.20 psf w(total) = wDL+wLL
fb(max) = 13.83 ksi fb(max) = 0.75*(w(total)/144)*(S*12)^2/(t^2*(1+1.61*(S/L)^3))/1000
Fb(allow) = 27.00 ksi Fb(allow) = 0.75*Fy
fb(max) <= Fb(allow), O.K.
Deflection:
Aspect Ratio, α = 0.2200 α = S/L
Mod. of Elasticity, E = 29000000 psi E = 29,000,000 psi (assumed value for steel)
∆(max) = 0.6936 in. ∆(max) = 0.1422*(w(total)/144)*(S*12)^4/(E*t^3*(1+2.21*(S/L)^3))
∆(ratio) = S/114 ∆(ratio) = (S*12)/∆(max)
Allow. ∆(ratio) = S/100 Allow. ∆(ratio) = S/100 (user defined and selected)

S/114 <= S/100, O.K.
