DESIGN TO BS 5950 : PART 1: 1990 LIMIT STATE DESIGN OF TUBULAR STRUCTURES USING HOT FINISHED STRUCTURAL HOLLOW SECTIONS. Preface This brochure has been produced to assist Structural Engineers and Designers who use Hot finished Structural Hollow Sections whose section properties comply with BS 4848 : Part 2 (Ref 1) and whose Steel qualities comply with EN 10210-1 (Ref 2) to design using the Limit State basis as covered by BS 5950 : Part I (Ref 3). It is important for designers to recognise that hollow sections, unlike their rolled open section counterparts, can be produced by a hot or cold forming process. The process of cold forming. produces different mechanical properties in the section to that of hot forming and a reduction in the sectional properties used in design. Designers wishing to use cold formed hollow sections should design in accordance with the appropriate cold formed standard and with the sectional properties as given in BS 6363 (Ref 4). Further guidance is given in British Steels Tubes & Pipes publication TD369 - ‘Cold Formed Hollow Sections’. In addition to the information contained in this publication, further assistance and design guidance is given in companion British Steel Tubes & Pipes publications (references 16 to 21) and the Steel Construction Institute (references 8 to 15) publications as given in Appendix A.

When considering the limit states of stability and serviceability due regard must be taken of the differing, load factors and combinations that may apply. PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS AND SECTIONAL PROPERTIES Structural Steel BS 5950 : Part I covers the design of structures fabricated from weldable structural steels in designated design grades to the appropriate product grade which for hot finished structural hollow sections are found in EN 10210-1 (Ref 2). Other steels may be used provided due allowance is made for variation in properties, including ductility EN 10210-1 : 1993 contains the technical delivery requirements for Hot Finished Structural Hollow Sections, including British Steel Tubes & Pipes two standard production grades of 8275J2H and $355J2H. Tables in annex A and B detail the required chemical analysis, mechanical properties, testing and certification for hot finished SHS. For further details see TD 364 (Ref 17). Designers are recommended to consider the use of Grade $355 steels in structures. Design strengths for grade $355 are significantly higher than grade $275 steels at only a small extra ‘cost, often resulting in more economical designs. Physical Properties of Structural Steel The values of tensile strength and minimum yield strength specified in EN 10210-1 for the two standard production grades of Hot Finished SHS are; Product Grade ‘Tensile Strength Yield Strength ‘Yield Strength Némm? Nimm* (= 16mm) (6 16 <25 440 Values have been shown for steel in grade 55 but the designer is advised to check availability before proceeding with its use. Note that currently rectangular hollow sections are limited to 20mm thick and circular hollow sections to SOmm thick ‘Thus in practice for sections up 10 and including 16mm thick, py = 275 N/mm? (Design Grade 43) or 355 N/mm? (Design Grade 50). For sections over 16mm and up to 40mm thick py = 265 and 345 respectively for Design Grades 43 and 50. However, this design strength will be reduced when, due to their size and thickness, sections are classified as slender (see section classification). BS 5950 Part 1 2.6 Section Classification “The classification of a section gives an indication of ils expected performance with particular reference to the elements of the cross section that are in compression due to bending or axial load. “The majority of SHS members will tend to fail at ultimate load by compressive yielding in one or more elements of the cross section. However itis recognised that cross sections ‘with slender elements may fail in compression by local buckling before reaching the full xyield strength thus limiting the ultimate capacity of the section, ‘The onset of local buckling will also be influenced by the level of axial stress. Thus if high yield steel is used (and the applied stzess is greater) then the width to thickness ratio of elements must be within smaller limits to prevent local buckling, The Code places sections into four classifications namely plastic, compact, semi-compact and slender as follows: (illustrated diagramatically in Figure 1) ?

In this case elastic analysis of the frame should be used. Class 3 Semi-compact: Sections in which under bending the stress at the extreme fibres can reach the design strength Py ina triangular stess block configuration but local buckling will prevent the development of the full plastic moment, and the moment capacity is therefore based upon the elastic modulus Class4— Slender: Sections in which local buckli will prevent the stress in the section from res ching the d strength p, and consequently a reduced valve of design sirength pymust be used in calculating the bending capacity, which is based upon the elastic modulus, and the compression resistance. The classification of a section is determined by comparing the width to thickness ratio of each element of the section, or diameter to thickness ratio for a HFCHS, with the appropriate limiting values given in BS 5950 Table 7. These limiting values are scheduled for cach classification and type of element and include a factor € (defined as (275/p,)"") which takes account of the steel grade of the section, - ‘The limiting values that apply to structural hollow sections are given in Table 7, part of which is reproduced on page 7. Elements that exceed the semi-compact limits of 39e for HFRHS of 80¢* for HFCHS are classified as slender, BS 5950 Part 1 Class 1 Class 2 Class 3 Class 4 Table 7 Table 7 Limiting width to thickness ratio for SHS ‘Type of element Clas of ection 1 Phase 2.

MEMBERS IN TENSION Brittle Fracture BS 5950: Part 1 imposes maximum thickness limits for members subject to tensile ste service due to applied axial load or moment when britle fracture is required to be considered. SHS supplied to EN 10210-1 grades have adequate notch toughness within the service temperature limits taken as -5 °C for internal conditions and -15 C for extemal conditions except for sections ‘ervater than 30mm thick in design grade SOC. ‘When steel is subject to lower temperatures the charpy impact performance at the minimum service temperature should not be less then: where K is determined from table 3 of BS 5950: Part 1 Axially Loaded tension members The tension capacity, Py of a member should be taken from: Pre Ac Py where Ac is the effective area of the section as determined from Clause 3.3, Eccentrie connections When members are connected eccentric to the axis of the member the resulting, moment has to be allowed for in accordance with Clause 4.8.2 (See Section 4.0, axially loaded members with moment) Effective area at connections. ‘The effective area, Ac, of each element of a member at a connection, where fastener holes occur may be taken as Ke times its net area, but not more than its gross area, where for steels complying with BS 5950 design grades; kK Ke = 1.2 for design grade 43, 1.1 for design grade 50. 1.0 for design grade 55 BS 5950 Part 1 244 Table 4 2443 Table 3 46 462 In hollow section members with bolted flatened end connections, as in Figure 3, itis necessary to make allowance for fastener holes. SS 16.1x5 HFCHS <% with 2 holes 18mm diameter gz Figure 3 ‘The 76.1 x 5 circular hollow section (design Grade 43) member in Figure 3 has a gross cross section area of 11.2 em (from Dimensions and Properties tables). In accordance with clauses 3.3.2 and 3.3.3 the effective area at the connection may be taken as K, times the net area, but not more than the gross area, where K, = 1.2 for design grade 43 steel ‘The effective area, As, is therefore as follows: Ac = (gross area - area of holes) x Ke (11.2 x10). (4x 18x 5) x 1.2 (1120 - 360) x 1.2 = 760 1.2 912 mm < 1120 Use effective area of 912 mm BS 5950 Part 1 3.2 MEMBERS IN COMPRESSION 3.2.1 Compression resistance The compression resistance P, of a member is obtained from Pc = Ag pe where Ag is the gross cross sectional area and p is the compressive strength, The compressive strength pe is obained from the relevant strut curve and depends upon the slenderness Vir (= 2) and the desiga strength p,, or reduced design strength Pye in the case of slender sections. The design procedure as applied to hollow sections is given as follows: 3.2.2 Design procedure for hollow sections a ect trial section and determine the value of the design strength py (2) Determine whether or not the section is slender, For slender sections in order to prevent local buckling reduce the design strength as follows. For HFCHS obtain the reduced design strength p,, from the semi-compact limit of the circular tube in table 7. Thus from d/t < = 80 ¢? and e = (275/p,)* Pyx = 80 x (275/ (dl) For HFRHS reduce the design strength py, by the stress reduction factor for the internal element ot compression flange in table 8:31 (G) Determine the effective length Ly (4) Calculate the slenderness ratio Lit (5) Select the relevant strut curve according to the section-shape and the axis of buckling For hot rolled structural hollow sections strut curve a is always used, (©) Obtain the compressive strength p. from strut table 27a for the appropriate values of design strength py (oF py:) and slenderness. (= Le/t) (7) Caleulate the compression resistance Pc = Ag Pe Slender sections Slender sections under compression will fail by local buckling before the stress in the section reaches the full design strength p,. Local buckling is avoided by reducing the design strength py, as described above. Problematically, on occasion it will be found that py is less that the lowest value of py N/mm?) tabulated in table 27 and in such eases the compressive strength pe must be calculated according to Appendix Cl and C2. Note that since no HFCHS section in the current range is slender, the reduced value of py, will only apply to a limited range of HFRS, Generally speaking itis the thinner wall sections of side length 200 and above that need to be checked. Section clarification for members subject to bending is given in published form (see Appendix A reference 9).

The effective length factors from Table 24 are given below and are shown diagrammatically in Figure 4 as follows: EEES Cf Lp Figure 4 Nominal effective length, L., for a strut BS 5950 Part 1 3.2.3 Effective length of struts 124 Conditions of restraint at ends (in plane Effective under consideration) Tength, Ly | Effectively Restrained in diretion held in at both ends Om position at both ends.

Compression chord members forming part of a lattice beam, girder or roof truss may require ‘one or more lateral restraint within the span, these intermediate lateral restraints should be capable of resisting a total force of not less than 2.5% of the maximum factored force in the compression chord, divided between the intermediate lateral restraints in proportion to their spacing. All intermediate lateral restraints should be either connected to an appropriate system of bracing capable of transferring the restraint forces to the beam, girder or trusses, effective points of suppor, or else connected to an independent robust part of the structure capable of fulfilling a similar function, Where «wo or more parallel members require lateral restraint at intervals, itis not adequate merely to connect the members together such that they become mutually dependent. ‘Where three or more intermediate lateral restraints are provided, each intermediate lateral restraint should be capable of resisting a force of not less than 1% of the maximum factored force in the compression chord. In this case, the bracing system should be capable of resisting the greater of the effects of (a) the 1% restraint force considered as acting at only one point at a time; (b) the restraint forces described in 4.3.2.1 ‘Where more than three parallel members share the same system of restraints, the combined lateral restraint force should be taken as the sum of the three largest lateral restraint forces required for each individual restrained member, as determined in accordance with 4.3.2.1 and 43.22 3.2.5 Mar um Slenderness The value of the slenderness ratio i (= Ly/t) should not exceed the following: (a) for members resisting loads other than wind loads 180 (b) for members resisting self weight and wind loads only 250 (©) for any member normally acting as a tie but subject to reversal of stress resulting from action of wind 350 Members whose slenderness exceeds 180 should be checked for self weight deflection. If this exceeds length/1000 the effect of bending should be taken into account in design. BS 5950 Part 1 4712 43.2.2 4732 3.2.6 Strut tables Four strut tables appear in BS $950 : Part | giving values of p, for a range of py. This set of tables recognises the difference in a section's compressive performance depending on the section type and the axis of buekling, In all cases, hot rolled structural hollow sections are designed using the highest Table, 27 (a).

MEMBERS IN BENDING General conditions All members in bending should be checked to take account of the following: 42 4) Atcitical points the combination of maximum moment and co-existent shear and the combination of maximum shear and co-existent moment. b) Deflection limits given in Clause 2.5.1 ©) The resistance of a member to lateral torsional buckling unless the compression flange has full lateral restraint. 4) Local buckling (of slender elements). ©) Web buckling and web bearing, 3.3.2 Shear Shear force Fy should not exceed the shear capacity P, which is given by: Py = 0.6 pyAy, For rectangular hollow sections with the applied load parallel to the web the shear area Ay is Ay=(DIDSB) XA For circular hollow sections, Ay 6A A further check is given in the Code for shear buckling of thin webs (where dit ratio exceeds 63e), but since the sizes in the current BS 4848: Part 2 range do not exceed this limit the check is not applicable. 3.3.3 Lateral torsional buckli 1B Where a flexural member is not provided with sufficient lateral restraint to the 43 compression flange, then lateral torsional buckling will occur before the member can develop its maximum bending capacity 422 Hollow sections possess a high degree of torsional stiffness and do not generally suffer from lateral torsional buckling, It can be seen from Appendix B that for square and circular hollow sections (where I, = ly) the factor 7 will always be equal to zero, It follows that the buckling B2s index p and the equivalent slenderness 2 1:7 will also be equal to zero, indicating that lateral torsional buckling does not occur with square or circular hollow sections, The Code (Appendix B.2.6.1. Table 38) gives a limiting slenderness ratio below which box sections of uniform wall thickness (including RHS) need not be checked for lateral torsional buckling effects. In practice, where normal deflection limits apply, this limit of slenderess is unlikely to be exceeded, and consequently hollow sections in bending may generally be considered as beams with full lateral restraint By applying the limits as given in Table 38 to the current range of Rectangular Hollow Sections sizes in Design grades 43 and 50 the following limiting values of 4 are obtained: DB 2 for design grade 43 21 for design grade 50 | ° 1 inti ininity ) 2 350 2m B + D and Bar overall depth and breadth of RIS respeativel Solow tat based won hese vals of (nich sequal 0 Ly/ fr each RHS Sze there {sa corresponding limiting length L.., beyond which a check should be made for lateral torsional buckling. For example, consider a simply supported laterally unrestrained rectangular hollow section beam 200 x 100 x 5 design grade 43 with D/B = 2. 200 x 100 x 5 (Design grade 43) L, = 14.7m ‘The limiting value of A is 350 Lefty = 350 350 x 4.2x 10mm 147m Le ‘This length (14.7m) is termed the limiting length L, and is tabulated on pages 147, 148, 321 and 322 of the Steelwork Design Guide Volume 1 (Reference 9), Square and circular hollow sections have a limiting length of infinity and, as indicated previously need not be checked for Lateral Torsional Buckling, BS 5950 Part 1 B261 Table 38 3.3.4 Moment capacity M, The Code gives two sets of expressions for determining M, moment capacity in the absent axial load, the first for members with low shear load (where Fy < = 0.6 P,) and the second, giving reduced moment capacity, for members with high shear load (where F, > 0.6 P,). ‘Since RHS beam members have wo vertical webs itis unlikely that the shear load will exceed 0.6 of the shear capacity and therefore the moment capacity can usually be taken as follows: Class 142. Plastic or Compact sections M, = pyS <= 1.2 pyZ* Class3——_Semi-compact sections Mc = pyZ. Class 4 Slender sections Me =PyZ where pyr RHS wall thickness Pp and for circular or square base plates for solid rounds or CHS members the minimum thickness in mm is given by the following expression which was based on requirements for solid columns and may give unacceptably large thickness for CHS members. Reference to the effective area method is recommended for CHS baseplates, ' I Dp (Dp -0.9D) 24 Dyp ° where «ais the greater projection of the plate beyond the column bis the lesser projection of the plate beyond the column ww is the uniform pressure on the underside of the plate Ps the design strength of the plate with a maximum of 270 N/mm’ Dp is the length of side or diameter of base plate, not less than 1.5 (D + 75ymm D is the CHS diameter If the bearing pressure bencath the base plate is not uniform, calculations should be made to determine the bending moments in the plate which should not exceed 1.2 pypZ where yp 270 N/mm’ and Z isthe elastic modulus of the base plate. Caution must be exercised in use of the above formulae as they assume uniform loading is present at the underside of the base plate and the maximum moment occurs at the external comer of the RHS Resultant base sizes may not produce this condition particularly when dimension D is large in relation to dimension B. As an alternative the effective area method may be used. Efffective Area Method The basis and method are taken from the publication entitled Joints in Simple Construction, Volume | Design Methods’ published by the BCSA and Steel Construction Institut. 1) Baseplates for RHS Columns ‘The shaded area in figure 11 represents the area of base plate assumed to be effective in transmitting the factored column load onto the foundations by imposing a uniform pressure on the concrete not exceeding the limiting bearing strength, The bearing strength is taken as 0.6 fy in accordance with BS 8110: Part 1: 1985, Required effective area Ayeq = (mean wall perimeter length ) x ( width of wall thickness plus two outstands ) = (2D42B-41)(t+2K) Note that when K is greater than (B - 2t)/2 then the internal outstands overlap and the effective area becomes Ary = (D+ 2K )(B + 2K) BS 5950 Part 1 43 4.13.23 BS 5950 Part 1 06 fos where Fe = compressive force due to factored loads O.6fcy = conerete bearing strength Fi = smaller of the characteristic cube strength at 28 days of the bedding ‘material or the conerete base. ( BS 8110: Part 1: 1985. Clause 5.2.3.4 ) } Hence K can be determined from quadratic equation or by iteration, Having established the outstand K, the thickness of the base plate tp can be found by: 2k [| _3(@6f) ] but not less than the wall Pro thickness of the hollow section yp = design strength of the base plate, but taken as not greater than 270 N/mm? 2) Baseplates for CHS columns ‘The above method can also be applied to circular base plates for CHS columns.

The following reference is therefore included to assist the designer. Lattice structures are usually designed on the basis of pin jointed frames with members in tension ‘or compression and the forces noding at the joint. Bracing and chord members are determined in accordance with the normal laws of statics. Research work has shown that the strength of such joints is dependent on a number of factors: bracing width to chord width ratio chord width/thickness ratio, chord compressive loading gap or overlap of bracings Work conducted with the International Institute of Welding and the CIDECT organisation has led to the publications (Ref 18) of design rules for welded joints for circular, square and rectangular chords, which will be included in Eurocode No. 3. This work has highlighted thatthe final joint strength is substantially influenced by the relative bracing-to-chord sizes and the general joint geometry which is the province of the design engineer as it involves his member selection for both analysis and design. Resulting from this, it hecomes necessary For the designer to fully consider the joint design as part of his work. Final sizing of welds can be left to the fabricator provided one important point is specified. The weld at the toe of a bracing member (highest stressed point) should, ifthe bracing angle is less than 60° be bevelled and a butt weld used. Further information on welding can be found in BS 5135 (Ref S) and British Steel Welded Tubes publication SHS Welding (Ref 19). COMPOSITE CONSTRUCTION BS 5950 : Part | gives guidance for the design of cased beam or column sections but no reference is made to hollow sections as this will be covered in Part 3, Code of practice for design in composite construction.

Code of Practice for Design in Simple and Continuous Construction: Hot Rolled Sections, presents the engineer with a change in design philosophy with the use of limit state principles and, partly as a direct result of this, a change in the detail procedures of design. Itis anticipated that the D.0.E. will withdraw approval for B.S. 449 by the end of 1987 and in this event, familiarisation of the new standard is important. To assist engineers a number of design examples have been prepared using Structural Hollow Sections. Whilst it has not been Possible to cover every aspect of the code, it is hoped that the examples will be of practical use in the design of elements. In each case reference should be made to the appropriate clauses in B.S. 5950 which have been given in the margin throughout the examples. In addition reference is made to tables given in the “Steelwork Design Guide — Volume 1, Section Properties and Member Capacities” published by the Steel Construction Institute, and are shown in the margin thus [45].
