Design Parameters
General:
Concrete Compressive Strength = 40.00 N/mm² fc
Steel Yield Strength = 460.00 N/mm² fy
Grade of Bolt = 8.80
Shear strength of Bolts = 375.00 N/mm² ps

Horizontal = 168.00 kN Fh1
Grid -19
Chord 2 Reactions Vertical = 1464.00 kN Fv2
Horizontal = 155.00 kN Fh2

Chord 3 Reactions Vertical = 1137.00 kN Fv3

Horizontal = 0.00 kN Fh3

Chord 4 Reactions Vertical = 1141.00 kN Fv4
Horizontal = 0.00 kN Fh4

Maximum Reaction Considered for Design,

Maximum Shear Force = 1464.00 kN Fv2
Maximum Tension = 155.00 kN Fh2
Eccentricity of shear force from face of column = 210.00 mm ex
Eccentricity of Tensile force from centre of bolts = 600.00 mm ey

Moment due to eccentric shear force = Fv * ex = 307.44 kNm M1

Moment due to eccentric Tensile force = Fh * ey = 93 kNm M2

Total Moment due to eccentricity of forces, Mu = M1 + M2 = 400.44 kNm Mu

Spacing between each raw of bolts = 250.00 mm h

Tensile force in the Extreme top bolts due to Moment, Ft = Mu /(7.5*h)= 213.57 kN

As there are two bolts on the top raw,

Force in each bolt at extreme top Ftt = 106.784 kN

Tensile force acting on each bolt due to Tension Force Fht = Fh2/n = 15.5 kN

Total Tensile Force acting on the Extreme top bolt = Fht + Ftt = 122.284

Design Shear Force and Tension Force Acting on each Bolt,

Design Shear Force = 146.40 kN Fvd
Design Tension Force = 122.28 kN Ftd

Considering Threaded M27 Bolts with the following specifications,

Grade of Bolt = 8.80
Diameter of bolt = 27.00 mm db
Area of Cross section at threaded area = 446.37 mm² At
Shear strength of Bolts = 375.00 N/mm² ps
Tensile strength of bolts = 560.00 N/mm² pt
 Shear Strength of Bolt, fvb = ps * At = 167.39 kN Fvb

Unity Ratio = Fvd / Fvb = 0.87 OK

Tensile Strength of Bolt, ftb = pt * At = 249.97 kN Ftb

Unity Ratio = Ftd / Ftb = 0.49 OK

Check for Combined Shear and Tension

Fvd + Ftd ≤ 1.4 = 1.36 OK

Fvd Ftb

Check for Embedment:

Embedment Length = 300.00 mm hef

Bond Stress = 0.28 √fcu = 11.70 N/mm² fb

Total Tensile Force acting on each bolt = 122.28 kN Ftd

Area available for bonding = 25434 mm² Ab

Bonding (friction) capacity of anchor = 297.58 kN

Check for Bending Moment Capacity of Base Plate:

Length of Base Plate effected by the load = 200.00 mm wb

Point Load acting on the centre of Plate = 122.28 kN Ftd

Bending Moment acting at centre of plate = Ftd * Lb / 4 = 6.11 kNm Mub

Yield Strength of base plate section = 275.00 N/mm² fyb

Thickness of Base Plate = 30.00 mm tb
Width of Base Plate resisting the load = 250.00 mm wb

Section Modulus of Plate section resisting bending = wb x tb^2 / 6 = 37500 mm Zb

Bending capacity of Base Plate section = fyb x Zb = 10.31 kNm Mcb

Unity Ratio = Mub / Mcb = 0.59 OK
