UA 60x60x8mm Bending Stress Check

This document provides calculations to check the design of a UA60x60x8mm steel grating support for a transformer. It calculates the load from the grating acting on each support, then calculates the bending stress in the angle leg to check it does not exceed the allowable stress. The calculated bending stress of 37.5 MPa is less than the allowable bending stress of 165 MPa, therefore the design is adequate.

Transformer Grating Support
DATE DES. CHK
May-18 MP ACS UA 60x60x8mm Design Check

A. DESIGN DATA:

Structural steel grade,fy = 275.00 Mpa


Allow. bending stress FB = 0.60fy = 165.00 Mpa
Allow. shear stress = 0.35fy = 96.25 Mpa
Unit weight of stee(gsteel.) = 78.00 kN/m3
Grating Dead Load (DL) = 4.50 kN/m2
Grating Live Load (LL) = 5.00 kN/m2
UA 60 X 60 x 8 PROPERTIES
leg length (b) = 60 mm
leg thickness (t) = 8 mm

B. Calculate Grating Load Acting on UA60x60x8 support @ Spaced 450mm C.C. (Pu)
Grating Panel Max. Length (Lg) = 1.200 m
Grating Panel Width (LB) = 0.45 m distance between supports
[(1.40 x DL x LB) + (1.60 x LL x LB)] x Lg =
Pu = 3.861 kN
2.00

C. Calculate Bending Stress on the leg of Angle due to Grating Load (fb actual)
MA x C =
fb actual = 37.50 Mpa < FB
I

Load location @ edge of angle (LA) = 46.63 mm refer to fixing clip details
OK…SECTION IS ADEQUATE
Design Moment @ point A (MA) = Pu x LA = 0.180 kN-m
Moment of Inertia (I) = LB x t3 / 12 = 19,200.00 mm4
Distance to neutral axis (C) = t/2 = 4 mm
