= 2 x 140 -7.5
= 273 mm

fwn = 410 N/mm2

γmw = 1.25 for shop fillet weld

As per Cl. No. 10.5.7.1.1 of IS 800-2007,

Design strength of Shop fillet weld 'fwd' = fwn / ((3^0.5) x ‫ץ‬mw)

= 410/(3^0.5*1.25)

Therefore, 8 mm fillet weld to the Web

3) TO DETERMINE THE SIZE & NUMBER OF BOLTS REQUIRED

a) Tension capacity of bolt Tb

Tension on each bolt = T= T / (number of bolts / 2)

= 378.54 / 2
= 189 kN

As per Cl. No. 10.3.5 of IS 800 -2007,

Tension capacity of M 30 dia 8.8 grade bolts

b) Shear capacity of bolt 'Vdsb'

Shear force in each bolt (V) = Resultant shear / number of bolts

As per Cl. No. 10.3.3 of IS 800 -2007,

γmb = 1.25

Shear capacity of bolt 'Vdsb' = Vnsb / ‫ץ‬mb
fub x (nn x Anb + ns x Asb)
Vnsb =

c) Bearing capacity of bolt 'Vdpb'

As per Cl. No. 10.3.4 of IS 800 -2007,

Vdpb = Vnpb / ‫ץ‬mb

le = 1.1t √(β fo / fy)

Hence le = MIN(95,60)

lv = Distance for bolt centre line to toe of the fillet weld

Q = lv / (2 * le) * (tension on each bolt - (β * η * fo * be * t^4 / (27 * le * lv^2))) / 1000

Taking moment at stiffener plate

Distance between bolt centre to the flange edge of Beam = (distance between bolt centre to the flange face of beam - 0.5 * t fb)
= ( 65 - 0.5 x 12.4 )
Lo = 58.8 mm

Tension in each bolt = Te = 189 kN

Moment= (Te x Lo - Q x Le )
= 58.8*189/1000-0*60.00/1000
= 11.13 kN.m = Moment at edge of flange (Considering Cantilever action on the End Plate)

Gross shear area = ( 60+65*2+300+2*65+60 x 40 )

Design shear strength of end plate = Gross shear area x End plate Fy
