Fx= 5.153 kN Mx= 12.195 kNm
Fy= 8.13 kN My= 4.573 kNm
Fz= -4.387 kN Mz= 0 kNm

4 .3 The section property of the designed welded connection

The section area……………………………..Aa= 5229 mm2
The area for shear paralell to the web…...Aaw= 3080 mm2
The area for shear paralell to the flange....Aaf= 2149 mm2
Torsional moment of inertia (Ix+Iy)………….It= 24971527 mm4
Section modulus at major axis…..……….Wx= 284953.6 mm3
Section modulus at minor axis……………Wy= 54438.57 mm3
Torsional constant………………………….Wo= 247700 mm3

4 .4 The check of the designed welded capacity


Shear capacity, Pscap=Aa*Pyw=……………… 307.4652 > 9.6255031 kN-total shear safe
Tension capacity Ptcap=K*Pscap=……………. 384.3315 > -4.387 kN-tension F safe
Shear parallel to flange, Psfcap=Aaf*Pyf=…… 157.9515 > 5.153 kN-shear at X safe
Shear parallel to the web, Pswcap=Aaw*Pyw= 226.38 > 8.13 kN-shear at Y safe
Bending at major axis, Mxbcap=Wx*Pyw=…… 20.94409 > 12.195 kNm - Mx safe
Bending at minor axis, Mybcap=Wy*Pyw=…… 4.001235 <= 4.573 kNm - My not safe
Torsional capacity Mtcap=Wo*Pyw=………….. 18.20595 > 0 kNm-torsion safe
Stress ratio R1=(((Fz/Ptcap)+(Mx/Mxbcap)+(My/Mybcap))^2+(Fy/Pscap)^2)^0.5= 1.714 not safe
Total stress ratio R=((R1^2+((Mz/Mtcap)+(Fx/Pscap))^2)^0.5= 1.7140329 => 1 not safe
since the total stress ratio is > 1, full penetration butt weld to be used
