Subject: Design Check for 50x50x6mm L-Angle

I. Design Information
Effective Width of Chequered Plate (Steps) b = 0.31 m
Length of Chequered Plate l = 1.20 m
Nos. of 50x50x6mm L Angle on each side = 2.00
Effective length of chequered plate for Angle L = 0.60 m
Weight of 50x50x6mm L Angle WA = 4.47 kg/m
(From Continental Steel Catalogue) = 0.045 kN/m

II. Materials
Yield Strength of Steel fy = 275.0 N/mm2

III. Loading Details

Self Weight of 50x50x6mm L Angle Sw = 0.045 kN/m
Dead Load Gk = 0.00 kN/m2
Total dead Load Gk = 0.04 + (0x0.31)
Gk = 0.045 kN/m

Live Load Qk = 4.00 kN/m2

Qk = 4 x 0.31
Qk = 1.24 kN/m

Design Load (Refer Chequered Plate Cal) Wed = 1.23 kN/m

IV. Calculation

Maximum Bending Moment Med = [Wed + (1.35 x WA)] x L

= 0.78 kN.m

Maximum Shear Ved = 1.23 kN

V. Check for Moment Resistance

Elastic Modulus of 50x50x6mm L Angle Bar Wel = 3.67 cm3

(From Continental Steel Catalogue) = 3670 mm3

Partial Factor of Resistance ƳM0 = 1.0 (NA to SS)

Maximum Bending Moment Med = 0.78 kN.m

Moment Resistance Mc,Rd = (Wel x fy)/ƳM0

= (3670x275)/1
= 1.01 kN.m

Med < Mc,Rd

Moment Resistance is Adequate

Med / Mc,Rd = 0.78 / 1.01

= 0.77 < 1
OK

VI. Check for Shear Resistance

Shear Force Ved = 1.23 kN

Area of the 50x50x6mm L Angle Bar Av = 5.72 cm2

(From Continental Steel Catalogue) = 572

Shear Resistance VEL,Rd = [Av (fy/√3)] / ƳM0

= [572(275/√3)]/1
= 90.82

VEL,Rd > Ved

OK

Hence Section is Adequate
