These caculations are raised in order to get approval for using steel supports for cold water
supply pipes (ductile iron pipes).
Since the location od steel brackets is at tunnel - finger relation, brackets are designed as steel
dropers suopported from concrete beam.
Prior to site work, the connection between steel support and concrete beam is adopted as
welded connection to embeded steel plate.

Arrangement of pipe supports 4m, 2m,2m,4m,2m,2m give 3 meter pipe load on one bracket.
In this calculations adopted distance is taken as 4 m, to match with adopted distance in SCR 0036.
References for design are taken from DAR's MH drawings ISSUED FOR CONSTRUCTIONS.

Kindly review attached:

>Calculation using steel grade ASTM A36 for steel sections, threaded rods and embeded plate,
>Calculation using steel grade ASTM A36 for pipe clamps and angle connectors,
>Copied pages from DI pipe manufacturers catalogue,
>Copied pages from stud anchor catalogue,
>Copied pages from AISC for fillet weld and safety factor reference,
>Printed pages for adopted section property.

Please note that site work in the utility tunnel is in progres and approve these calculations for
our future action.

1.2 The density of fluid………………………………………………...γf= 10 kN/m3
1.3 Steel grade as per ASTM A36……………………………….…Py= 245 N/mm2
1.4 The electreode classification number (strength)……... Feex=Py= 245 N/mm2
1.5 The strength of fillet weld as per AISC is 60% of Feex…….Pyw= 147 N/mm2
1.6 The self weight of fasteners clamps…………………………………. 10 kg
1.7 The self weights of DI pipes are taken from manufacturer's catalogue including the weight
of joints and they are as follows:
Φ200mm………………………………………………………………………. 37 kg/m
Φ300mm………………………………………………………………………. 61 kg/m
1.8 The concrete compressive strength after 28 days…………………. 37 Mpa
1.9 The self weights of valves are confirmed by manufacturer and are as follows:
Φ200mm………………………………………………………………………. 70 kg
Φ300mm………………………………………………………………………. 123 kg

2. CONCEPT

Note:
In order to match the deflection of the steel bracket that support droper rods with deflections
of steel cantilevers which support pipes in tunnel portions before/after dropers, the treaded rods will
be used for adjustment tighten with regular / locked nuts.

3. LOAD ANALYSIS
Since the pipe supports are adopted as dropers applied load will be due to dead load only.
3.1 Dead load:
3.1.1 Dead load due to weight of pipe, is taken from manufacturer's catalogue and it is:
Φ200mm.. 37 kg/m, with length of….... 4 m,…G2= 1.48 kN
Φ300mm.. 61 kg/m, with length of….... 4 m,…G3= 2.44 kN

3.1.2 Dead load due to weight of valves:

Φ200mm……………. 70 kg…………………………………G2v= 0.7 kN
Φ300mm……………. 123 kg…………………………………G2v= 1.23 kN

3.1.3 Dead load due to weight of water:

For …...Φ 200 mm, G=((D^2*3.14)/4)*Ld*γf=……………..G2w= 1.256 kN
For …...Φ 300 mm, G=((D^2*3.14)/4)*Ld*γf=……………..G2w= 2.826 kN

3.1.4 Dead load due to weight of fastener…….. 10 kg...Gc= 0.1 kN

3.1.5 Dead load due to steel member weight will be calculated and added by softwear.

3.1.6 Total dead load for pipe 200 mm dimater………………….….G2t= 3.536 kN

3.1.7 Total dead load for pipe 200 mm dimater………….………….G2t= 6.596 kN

Total load on steel supports G= 10.232 kN, for pipe length of 4 meter, is as
2.558 kN/m, which is match with load of 250 kg/m recommended by consultant in drawing:
CD-8.03.0-BR-05-071, issued for construction.

4. MODEL ANALYSIS
Will be calculated in softwear STAAD pro and input/output file is shown on following pages.

5. THE CALCULATION OF EMBEDED PLATES AND ANCHORS

Adopted embeded steel plate 360x360x40 mm which will be welded to anchor stud bolts, due to
easier process of erection. Embeded plate with welded studs will be fixed on inside face of shutering
and after 28 days of casting concrete, steel barcket will be site welded to embeded plate.

Design and check are calculated in softwear KOECO (Germany) and inpu/output fiiles are shown
on follownig pages.
Design criteria for model: EUROPEAN NORM
Steel grade fo embeded plate as per ASTM A36 (grade 40 similar), with Pymin=245N/mm2
Adopted type on anchor stud is shear connector with steel grade ASTM A 168,including welding
compatibility with carbon steel (embeded plate). Technical and mechanical properties are given in
attachment.

two regular nuts

Adopted concept is based on corrosion exposure and pullout force for nut (tesnion force in rod)
Therefore it is assumed fully threaded rod with hot deep galvanization preparation as resistance
against corrosion, while as additional safety against nut pullout force adopted is tightening with two
regular and one locked nuts.

Adopted bolts/nuts as per BS grade 4.6 hot deep galvanized with following properties:
Shear capacity of bolts ….……………………………………………pys= 160 N/mm2
Tension capacity of bolts …..…………………………………………pyt= 240 N/mm2
Bearing capacity of bolts ….………………………………………….pyb= 460 N/mm2

Since all checks are safe, adopted rod

7.1 CONCEPT 2

Since forces in for this case are ….………….. 3.29 kN per each rod, which is less than
tension force calculated for the rod which carry 200 mm dia pipe, the same diameter will be adopted,

Note: In case that UA 150x90x12 is not available on local market or site (mechanical) request
are dismatch, instead of this type connection, an "eye bolt" can be used as per sketch bellow.
Using of eye bolts should be as per following design criteria:
1) The steel grade as per ASTM A36,
2) To be hot deep galvanized prior to corrosion expsoure,
3) To have tesnion capacity of 1 ton (10 kN) minimum.

8.2 UNEQUAL ANGLE UA 150x90x12 THAT SUPPORT 200 mm DIA PIPE

 Since the tension force in the rod that carry 200 mm dia pipe is 5.026 kN which is less then
force calculated for rod that carry 300 mm dia pipe and the same detail/design criteria will be followed
therefore there is no need for calculation for this case since the stresses will be less.
Adopted UA 150x90x12 with the same connection details and are calculated in 8.1

Tesnion force in bolt (unfactored)………………………………………….. 0.886 kN
Load factor for dead load……….. 1.4 factored force is……… 1.24 kN
Adopted diameter of the bolt is.. 20 mm, which will give efective tension area of:

9.2.2 BOTTOM CONNECTION

Since the axial bolt force for bottom is the same as for top connection the same connection
detail will be used for fastener bolt.

9.3 BOLTED CONNECTION BETWEEN CLAMPS AND UNEQUAL ANGLE

The bolt that connect UA 150x90x12 and pipe clamps 150x10 will be stressed due to shear
force and bending since shear force is acting at the midd of the bolt.
Adopted bolts as per 8.1 is D= 24 mm
Minimum edge distance, minimum distance between two bolts, bearing capacity of the bolt,
bearing capacity of the clamps as well shear capacity of the bolt are calculated in 8.1 and identified
as safe. Therefore the subject of this calculation is bending capacity of the bolt and total stress.
As it is calculated in 8.1 shear force/capacity is as follows:
Ps=……………………………………………………………………………. 9.226 kN
Pscap=………………………………………………………………………… 88.62 kN
Bending moment at the midd of bolt
Mbbolt=0.5*9.226*0.005=…………………………………………………… 0.023 kNm
W=0.1 D^3……………………………………………………………………. 1382 mm3
Mbboltcap=W*Py=… 338688 Nmm=……… 0.338688 kNm>….. 0.023 kNm………safe
total stress ratio:
R=((Ps/Pscap)^2+(Mbbolt/Mbboltcap)^2)^0.5= 0.12439969 < 1…………………………..safe

>>SINCE ALL CHECKS ARE SAFE IN 9.0 DESIGNED CLAMPS ARE SAFE FOR USING<<

10.0 THE CHECK OF CLAMP DETAL THAT SUPPORT 200 mm DIA PIPE-CONCEPT 1

Adopted the same connection/clamps details as in 9.0.

Since the load for this case will be less (pipe 200 mm dia) and connection / clamps details are
the same, there is no need for design/calculation since all items are identified in 9.0 as safe.

11.0 THE CHECK OF CLAMP DETAIL THAT SUPPORT 300 mm DIA PIPE-CONCEPT 2
