1. PROBLEM STATEMENT AND ASSUMPTIONS: A two-span continuous composite I-girder bridge has two equal spans of 165’ and a 42’ deck width. The steel girders have Fy = 50ksi and all concrete has a 28-day compressive strength of f’c = 4.5ksi. The concrete slab is 91/2” thick. A typical 2¾” haunch was used in the section properties. Concrete barriers weighing 640plf and an asphalt wearing surface weighing 60psf have also been applied as a composite dead load. HL-93 loading was used per AASHTO (2004), including dynamic load allowance.

The moment effect due to dead loads was found using an FE model composed of four frame elements. This data was input into Excel to be combined with data from moving live load analyses performed in SAP 2000. DC1 dead loads were applied to the non-composite section (bare steel). All live loads were applied to the short-term composite section (1n = 8). DW (barriers) and DC2 (wearing surface) dead loads were applied to the long-term composite section (3n = 24).

2.2: Live Load Calculations The following design vehicular live load cases described in AASHTO-LRFD are considered:

1) The effect of a design tandem combined with the effect of the lane loading. The design tandem consists of two 25kip axles spaced 4.0’ apart. The lane loading consists of a 0.64klf uniform load on all spans of the bridge. (HL-93M in SAP) 2) The effect of one design truck with variable axle spacing combined with the effect of the 0.64klf lane loading. (HL-93K in SAP)

3) For negative moment between points of contraflexure only: 90% of the effect of a truck-train combined with 90% of the effect of the lane loading. The truck train consists of two design trucks (shown below) spaced a minimum of 50’ between the lead axle of one truck and the rear axle of the other truck. The distance between the two 32kip axles should be taken as 14’ for each truck. The points of contraflexure were taken as the field splices at 132’ and 198’ from the left end of the bridge. (HL-93S in SAP)

4) The effect of one design truck with fixed axle spacing used for fatigue loading.

All live load calculations were performed in SAP 2000 using a beam line analysis. The nominal moment data from SAP was then input into Excel. An Impact Factor of 1.33 was applied to the truck and tandem loads and an impact factor of 1.15 was applied to the fatigue loads within SAP.

Based on the influence line analysis, we can say that the moments obtained from SAP appear to be reasonable and will be used for design. Before these Service moments can be factored and combined, we must compute the distribution factors. Since the distribution factors are a function of Kg, the longitudinal stiffness parameter, we must first compute the sections properties of the girders.

2.3: Braking Force

The Breaking Force, BR, is taken as the maximum of: A) 25% of the Design Truck

BRSingle Lane = ( 0.25 ) ( 8kip + 32kip + 32kip ) = 18.00kip B) 25% of the Design Tandem

BRSingle Lane = ( 0.25 ) ( 25kip + 25kip ) = 12.50kip C) 5% of the Design Truck with the Lane Load.

2.4: Centrifugal Force

A centrifugal force results when a vehicle turns on a structure. Although a centrifugal force doesn’t apply to this bridge since it is straight, the centrifugal load that would result from a hypothetical horizontal curve will be computed to illustrate the procedure. The centrifugal force is computed as the product of the axle loads and the factor, C.

C= f

v2 gR

(3.6.3-1)

where:

( secft )

v

- Highway design speed

f

- 4/3 for all load combinations except for Fatigue, in which case it is 1.0

g

- The acceleration of gravity

R

- The radius of curvature for the traffic lane (ft).

( ) ft sec 2

Suppose that we have a radius of R = 600’ and a design speed of v = 65mph = 95.33ft/sec. ft 2 ⎤ ⎛ 4 ⎞ ⎡⎢ ( 95.33 sec ) ⎥ = 0.6272 C =⎜ ⎟ ⎝ 3 ⎠ ⎢⎣ 32.2 secft 2 ( 600 ') ⎥⎦

(

)

CE = ( Axle Loads )( C )( # Lanes )( MPF )

= ( 72kip ) ( 0.6272 )( 3)( 0.85 ) = 115.2kip

This force has not been factored…

The centrifugal force acts horizontally in the direction pointing away from the center of curvature and at a height of 6’ above the deck. Design the cross frames at the supports to carry this horizontal force into the bearings and design the bearings to resist the horizontal force and the resulting overturning moment.

2.5: Wind Loads

For the calculation of wind loads, assume that the bridge is located in the “open country” at an elevation of 40’ above the ground. Take Z = 40’

V o = 8.20mph Z o = 0.23ft

The height of exposure, hexp, for the finished bridge is computed as

Vertical Wind Load on Structure: (WS) When no traffic is on the bridge, a vertical uplift (a line load) with a magnitude equal to 20psf times the overall width of the structure, w, acts at the windward quarter point of the deck.

PV = ( 20psf ) ( w ) = ( 20psf ) ( 42 ' ) = 840 lbs ft

Total Uplift:

(840 lbsft ) ( 2 )(165') = 277.2kip

Wind Load on Live Load: (WL) The wind acting on live load is applied as a line load of 100 lbs/ft acting at a distance of 6’ above the deck, as is shown below. This is applied along with the horizontal wind load on the structure but in the absence of the vertical wind load on the structure.

3. SECTION PROPERTIES AND CALCULATIONS: 3.1: Effective Flange Width, beff:

For an interior beam, beff is the lesser of: ⎧ Leff 132' = = 33' = 396" ⎪• 4 ⎪ 4 bf ⎪ 15" = (12)(8.5") + = 109.5" ⎨• 12ts + 2 2 ⎪ ⎪• S = (12')(12 in ft ) = 144" ⎪ ⎩ For an exterior beam, beff is the lesser of: ⎧ Leff 132' = = 33' = 198.0" ⎪• 4 ⎪ 4 bf ⎪ 15" = (12)(8.5") + = 109.5" ⎨• 12ts + 2 2 ⎪ ⎪ S ⎛ 12' ⎞ + 3' ⎟ (12 inft ) = 108.0" ⎪• + d e = ⎜ ⎝ 2 ⎠ ⎩ 2

Note that Leff was taken as 132.0’ in the above calculations since for the case of effective width in continuous bridges, the span length is taken as the distance from the support to the point of dead load contra flexure.

For computing the section properties shown on the two pages that follow, reinforcing steel in the deck was ignored for short-term and long-term composite calculations but was included for the cracked section. The properties for the cracked Section #1 are not used in this example, thus the amount of rebar included is moot. For the properties of cracked Section #2, As = 13.02 in2 located 4.5” from the top of the slab was taken from an underlying example problem first presented by Barth (2004).

Three Lanes Loaded:

The case of three lanes loaded is not considered for the minimum exterior distribution factor since the third truck will be placed to the right of the center of gravity of the girders, which will stabilize the rigid body rotation effect resulting in a lower factor.

4.4: Moment Distribution Factor Summary Strength and Service Moment Distribution:

1 Lane Loaded: 2 Lanes Loaded:

Positive Moment Interior Exterior 0.5021 0.8500 ≥ 0.7350 0.7781 0.7274 ≥ 0.9250

Negative Moment Interior Exterior 0.5321 0.8500 ≥ 0.7350 0.8257 0.7719 ≥ 0.9250

For Simplicity, take the Moment Distribution Factor as 0.9250 everywhere for the Strength and Service load combinations. Fatigue Moment Distribution:

For Fatigue, the distribution factor is based on the one-lane-loaded situations with a multiple presence factor of 1.00. Since the multiple presence factor for 1-lane loaded is 1.2, these factors can be obtained by divided the first row of the table above by 1.2.

1 Lane Loaded:

Positive Moment Interior Exterior 0.4184 0.7083 ≥ 0.6125

Negative Moment Interior Exterior 0.4434 0.7083 ≥ 0.6125

For Simplicity, take the Moment Distribution Factor as 0.7083 everywhere for the Fatigue load combination Multiplying the live load moments by this distribution factor of 0.9250 yields the table of “nominal” girder moments shown on the following page.

5.4: Shear Distribution Factor Summary Strength and Service Shear Distribution:

1 Lane Loaded: 2 Lanes Loaded:

Shear Distribution Interior Exterior 0.8400 0.8500 ≥ 0.7350 1.082 0.6300 ≥ 0.9250

For Simplicity, take the Shear Distribution Factor as 1.082 everywhere for Strength and Service load combinations.

Fatigue Shear Distribution:

For Fatigue, the distribution factor is based on the one-lane-loaded situations with a multiple presence factor of 1.00. Since the multiple presence factor for 1-lane loaded is 1.2, these factors can be obtained by divided the first row of the table above by 1.2.

1 Lane Loaded:

Shear Distribution Interior Exterior 0.7000 0.7083 ≥ 0.6125

For Simplicity, take the Shear Distribution Factor as 0.7083 everywhere for the Fatigue load combination.

Multiplying the live load shears by these distribution factors yields the table of “nominal” girder shears shown on the following page.

6. FACTORED SHEAR AND MOMENT ENVELOPES

The following load combinations were considered in this example: Strength I: Strength IV:

1.75(LL + IM) + 1.25DC1 + 1.25DC2 + 1.50DW 1.50DC1 + 1.50DC2 + 1.50DW

Service II:

1.3(LL + IM) + 1.0DC1 + 1.0DC2 + 1.0DW

Fatigue:

0.75(LL + IM)

(IM = 15% for Fatigue; IM = 33% otherwise)

Strength II is not considered since this deals with special permit loads. Strength III and V are not considered as they include wind effects, which will be handled separately as needed. Strength IV is considered but is not expected to govern since it addresses situations with high dead load that come into play for longer spans. Extreme Event load combinations are not included as they are also beyond the scope of this example. Service I again applies to wind loads and is not considered (except for deflection) and Service III and Service IV correspond to tension in prestressed concrete elements and are therefore not included in this example.

In addition to the factors shown above, a load modifier, η, was applied as is shown below. Q = ∑ηiγ i Qi

η is taken as the product of ηD, ηR, and ηI, and is taken as not less than 0.95. For this example, ηD and ηI are taken as 1.00 while ηR is taken as 1.05 since the bridge has 4 girders with a

spacing greater than or equal to 12’.

Using these load combinations, the shear and moment envelopes shown on the following pages were developed. Note that for the calculation of the Fatigue moments and shears that η is taken as 1.00 and the distribution factor is based on the one-lane-loaded situations with a multiple presence factor of 1.00 (AASHTO Sections 6.6.1.2.2, Page 6-29 and 3.6.1.4.3b, Page 3-25).

9. CHECK SERVICE LIMIT STATE 9.1: Check Absolute Deflection of the Bridge: Section 6.10.4.1 Section 1

The cross section of Section 1 that is used for computing deflections is shown above. The entire deck width is used (as opposed to just the effective width that was used earlier) and the haunch and sacrificial wearing surface have been neglected. AASHTO permits the use of the stiffness of parapets and structurally continuous railing but ODOT does not. The transformed width of the bridge deck is w ' =

( 42 ') (12 inft ) 8

= 63.00"

Using the bottom of the steel as a datum, the location of the CG of the deck can be found as:

yc = 1"+ 69"+ 3 4 "+

8.5" = 75.00" 2

The CG of this composite cross section is found as:

The following model, which represents the stiffness of a single girder, was used to compute absolute liveload deflections assuming the entire width of the deck to be effective in both compression and tension. The live load component of the Service I load combination is applied. Based on AASHTO Section 3.6.1.3.2, the loading includes (1) the design truck alone and (2) the lane load with 25% of the design truck. The design truck and design lane load were applied separately in the model and will be combined below. The design truck included 33% impact.

I = 145,100 in4

I = 249,700 in4

I = 145,100 in4

From the analysis: Deflection due to the Design Truck with Impact: ΔTruck = 2.442” Deflection due to the Design Lane Load: ΔLane = 0.8442” These deflections are taken at Stations 79.2’ and 250.8’. The model was broken into segments roughly 25’ long in the positive moment region and 7’ long in the negative moment region. A higher level of discretization may result in slightly different deflections but it is felt that this level of accuracy was acceptable for deflection calculations. Since the above results are from a single-girder model subjected to one lane’s worth of loading, distribution factors must be applied to obtain actual bridge deflections. Since it is the absolute deflection that is being investigated, all lanes are loaded (multiple presence factor apply) and it is assumed that all girders deflect equally. Given these assumptions, the distribution factor for deflection is simply the number of lanes times the multiple presence factor divided by the number of girders. Looking at the two loading criteria described above:

⎛ ( 0.85 )( 3) ⎞ Δ1 = ⎜⎜ ⎟⎟ ( 2.442") = 1.558" 4 ( ) ⎝ ⎠

← Governs

⎛ ( 0.85 )( 3) ⎞ Δ 2 = ⎜⎜ ⎟⎟ ⎡⎣( 0.8442") + ( 0.25 )( 2.442") ⎤⎦ = 0.9274" ⎝ ( 4) ⎠ The limiting deflection for this bridge is:

Δ Limit =

(165') (12 inft ) L = = 2.475" 800 800

← OK

9.2: Check the Maximum Span-to-Depth Ratio: Section 6.10.4.1 From Table 2.5.2.6.3-1, (1) the overall depth of a composite I-beam in a continuous span must not be less than 0.032L and (2) the depth of the steel in a composite I-beam in a continuous span must not be less than 0.027L.

(1) ( 2)

0.032 L = ( 0.032 )(165') (12 inft ) = 63.36"

0.027 L = ( 0.027 )(165') (12 inft ) = 53.46"

The web is non-slender. Since the web is non-slender we have the option of using the provisions in Appendix A to determine the moment capacity. I will first determine the capacity using the provisions in §6.10.8, which will provide a somewhat conservative determination of the flexural resistance.

For Composite Sections in Negative Flexure, (§6.10.8.1, Pg. 6.105 – 6.114) The Compression Flange must satisfy: fbu +

1 f ≤ φ f Fnc 3 l

Per §6.10.1.1.1a, elastic stresses at any location in a composite section shall consist of the sum of stresses caused by loads applied separately to the bare steel, short-term composite section, and long-term composite section. In §6.10.1.1.1c, though, it states that for the Strength Limit, the short-term and long-term composite sections shall consist of the bare steel and the longitudinal rebar. In other words, for determining negative moment stresses over the pier, we can use the factored moment above with the properties for the cracked section.

fbu = 71.13ksi Since fbu is greater than Fyc, it is obvious that a strength computed based on the provisions in §6.10.8 will not be adequate.

As it stands here, this girder is clearly not adequate over the pier. The compression flange is overstressed as per the provisions in §6.10.8. There are still other options to explore, though, before increasing the plate dimensions. 1. Since the web is non-slender for Section 2 in Negative Flexure, we have the option of using the provisions in Appendix A6 to determine moment capacity. This would provide an upper bound strength of Mp instead of My as was determined in §6.10.8. 2. The provisions in Appendix B6 allow for redistribution of negative moment from the region near the pier to the positive moment region near mid-span for sections that satisfy stringent compactness and stability criteria. If this section qualifies, as much as ~2,000k-ft may be able to be redistributed from the pier to mid-span, which could enable the plastic moment strength from Appendix A6 to be adequate. (This solution may even work with the flange strength at 50ksi, but I doubt it…)

Despite the fact that the girder appears to have failed our flexural capacity checks, let’s look at the shear capacity.

This strength is adequate from 16’ – 100’ and 230’ - 314’. This strength is not adequate near the end supports or near the pier, however.

12.4: Horizontal Shear Strength Per ODOT Standard practice, shear studs will be used to transfer horizontal shear between the concrete deck and top flange of the steel girder. ODOT prefers the use of 7/8”diameter studs. Ideally, the studs should extend to the mid-thickness of the deck. Using this criterion, the height of the studs can be determined. be

OK

AASHTO requires a center-to-center transverse spacing of 4d and a clear edge distance of 1”. With 7/8” diameter studs, there is room enough transversely to use up to 4 studs in each row. With this in mind, I will investigate the option of either 3 or 4 studs per row. Fatigue Limit State: The longitudinal pitch of the shear studs based on the Fatigue Limit is determined as

ONE-SPAN INELASTIC I-GIRDER BRIDGE DESIGN EXAMPLE

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT AND ASSUMPTIONS: A single span composite I-girder bridge has span length of 166.3’ and a 64’ deck width. The steel girders have Fy = 50ksi and all concrete has a 28-day compressive strength of ksi f’c = 4.5 . The concrete slab is 9.5” thick. A typical 4” haunch was used in the section properties. Concrete barriers weighing 640plf and an asphalt wearing surface weighing 60psf have also been applied as a composite dead load. HL-93 loading was used per AASHTO (2004), including dynamic load allowance.

The moment effect due to dead loads was found using an FE model composed of six frame elements to model the bridge (a node was placed at mid-span). This data was input into Excel to be combined with data from moving live load analyses performed in SAP 2000. DC1 dead loads were applied to the noncomposite section (bare steel). All live loads were applied to the short-term composite section (1n = 8). DW (barriers) and DC2 (wearing surface) dead loads were applied to the long-term composite section (3n = 24). The maximum moments at mid-span are easily computed since the bridge is statically determinate.

2b. Live Load Calculations The following design vehicular live load cases described in AASHTO-LRFD are considered: 1) The effect of a design tandem combined with the effect of the lane loading. The design tandem consists of two 25kip axles spaced 4.0’ apart. The lane loading consists of a 0.64klf uniform load on all spans of the bridge. (HL-93M in SAP) 2) The effect of one design truck with variable axle spacing combined with the effect of the 0.64klf lane loading. (HL-93K in SAP)

3) For negative moment between points of contraflexure only: 90% of the effect of a truck-train combined with 90% of the effect of the lane loading. The truck train consists of two design trucks (shown below) spaced a minimum of 50’ between the lead axle of one truck and the rear axle of the other truck. The distance between the two 32kip axles should be taken as 14’ for each truck. The points of contraflexure were taken as the field splices at 132’ and 198’ from the left end of the bridge. (HL-93S in SAP)

All live load calculations were performed in SAP 2000 using a beam line analysis. The nominal moment data from SAP was then input into Excel. An Impact Factor of 1.33 was applied to the truck and tandem loads within SAP.

Based on the influence line analysis, we can say that the moments obtained from SAP appear to be reasonable and will be used for design. Before these Service moments can be factored and combined, we must compute the distribution factors. Since the distribution factors are a function of Kg, the longitudinal stiffness parameter, we must first compute the sections properties of the girders.

3. SECTION PROPERTIES AND CALCULATIONS: 3a. Effective Flange Width, bs: For an interior beam, bs is the lesser of: bf ⎧ 14" = (12 )( 8.5") + = 109 '' ⎪•12ts + 2 2 ⎪⎪ ⎨•S = (11.33')(12 in ft ) = 135.96 '' ⎪ L ⎪• eff = 166.3' = 41.58' = 498.9 '' ⎪⎩ 4 4

Therefore, bs = 109” For computing the section properties shown on the two pages that follow, reinforcing steel in the deck was ignored for short-term and long-term composite calculations but was included for the cracked section.

Note: At this point one should also check the effective of the outside girders as well. For this example, however, I will proceed sing the effective width for the interior girders.

For Simplicity, take the Moment Distribution Factor as 0.9000 everywhere.

Multiplying the live load moments by this distribution factor of 0.9000 yields the table of “nominal” girder moments shown below.

5. FACTORED MOMENT ENVELOPES

The following load combinations were considered in this example: Strength I: Strength IV:

1.75(LL + IM) + 1.25DC1 + 1.25DC2 + 1.50DW 1.50DC1 + 1.50DC2 + 1.50DW

Service II:

1.3(LL + IM) + 1.0DC1 + 1.0DC2 + 1.0DW

Fatigue:

0.75(LL + IM)

(IM for Fatigue = 15%)

Strength II is not considered since this deals with special permit loads. Strength III and V are not considered as they include wind effects, which will be handled separately as needed. Strength IV is considered but is not expected to govern since it addresses situations with high dead load that come into play for longer spans. Extreme Event load combinations are not included as they are also beyond the scope of this example. Service I again applies to wind loads and is not considered and Service III and Service IV correspond to tension in prestressed concrete elements and are therefore not included in this example.

In addition to the factors shown above, a load modifier, η, was applied as is shown below. Q = ∑ηiγ i Qi

η is taken as the product of ηD, ηR, and ηI, and is taken as not less than 0.95. For this example, ηD, ηR, and ηI are taken as 1.00. Using these load combinations, the shear and moment envelopes shown on the following pages were developed.

SINGLE-SPAN TRUSS BRIDGE DESIGN EXAMPLE 1. PROBLEM STATEMENT AND ASSUMPTIONS:

Consider the truss bridge shown in Figure 1 below. The truss is simply supported with a span length of 112’–0” and a width (c-c of the trusses) of 19’–6”. The truss is made up of 7 panels that are each 16’-0” in length. Floor beams span between the truss panel points perpendicular to traffic and support stringers that span 16’-0” in the direction of traffic. Finally, the noncomposite W10 x 88 stringers support a 6” thick reinforced concrete deck. The simply supported stringers (6 across in each panel) are spaced at 3’ - 6” laterally. 1) Determine maximum and minimum axial forces in members 1-2, 1-4, 9-11, 9-10, and 10-13 due to an HL-93 Loading. 2) Determine the maximum moment in the stringer members due to the HL-93 Loading The entire truss superstructure is made up of W14 x 109 members except for the bottom chord, which is made up of MC 12 x 35 members. You may assume that the trucks drive down the center of the bridge (they really do, by the way) and as a result, the truck loads are approximately equally distributed between the trusses. To be on the safe side, however, assume that each truss carries 75% of the single lane. Model the truss as a determinate structure with pinned joints even though the actual truss has very few joints that are truly pinned. You may use a computer program for your truss analysis if you wish. I would suggest that you use SAP2000, Visual Analysis, or another similar FE package to model the truss. Disregard the lower limit of L = 20’ on the span length for computing distribution factors for the stringer members. Think about what is appropriate for the multiple presence factor.

Determine the plastic moment capacity for the composite beam shown below. The section is a W30x99 and supports a 6” thick concrete slab. The dimensions are as shown. Use Fy = 50ksi and f’c = 4ksi. Assume full composite action.

Solution:

Determine the Controlling Compression Force: Ps = 0.85 f c'bs ts = ( 0.85 ) ( 4ksi ) ( 6")( 50") = 1020kip PSteel = Ast Fy = ( 29.1 in 2 )( 50ksi ) = 1455kip Assuming full composite action, the shear connectors must carry the smallest of Ps and Psteel. Since Ps < Psteel, the PNA must lie in the steel. When this occurs, it is simplest to use the aids in Appendix D of the AASHTO Specification to determine the location of the PNA and plastic moment.

Referring to Table D6.1-1 in Appendix D6.1, Page 6-290: Determine the forces in the components of the cross section. The forces in the rebar will be conservatively taken as zero (we don’t know what size the rebar is any ways…) Ps = 0.85 f c'bs ts = ( 0.85 ) ( 4ksi ) ( 6")( 50") = 1020kip Pc = (0.670")(10.5") ( 50ksi ) = 351.8kip

The plastic moment can also be computed from “first principles” as well, though it is a bit more involved. What follows is an example of how this would be completed. Determine the Location of the PNA: Since Pc + Pw ≥ Pt + Prb + Prt , the PNA is in the web of the section. The location of the PNA within the web is determined by equating the tensile force acting above the PNA with the compressive force acting below it. Assume the PNA lies at a depth Y below the bottom of the top flange. Pc + Pwc = Pwt + Pt + Prb + Prt 351.8kip + ( 50ksi ) ( 0.520") ( 28.36"− Y ) = ( 50ksi ) ( 0.520") (Y ) + 351.8kip + 47.12kip + 94.25kip

Determine the Plastic Moment: The plastic moment is calculated by summing the moments of the tensile and compressive forces about any point. In general, the moments are summed about the PNA.

Since the web is non-slender and Eq 6.10.6.2.3-2 is satisfied, we have the option of using either AASHTO Section 6.10.8 or Appendix A6 to determine the flexural capacity of this member. For this example, the provisions of A6 will be used and we will work with moments. The following failure modes must be investigated: • Flange Local Buckling of the Compression Flange Mnc(FLB) • Lateral-Torsional Buckling Mnc(LTB) • Yielding of Tension Flange Mnt

AASHTO Connection Example #7: Problem:

Detail a splice between two non-composite W30 x 99 M270 Gr 50. Take Mu at the location of the splice as 810k-ft and take φMn as 1,300k-ft.

Solution:

The splice is designed for the larger of: M u , Beam + φM n, Beam 2

=

810k-ft + 1,300k-ft = 1, 055k-ft 2

(

)

0.75 φM n, Beam = ( 0.75 ) 1,300k-ft = 975.0k-ft Since 1,055k-ft > 975.0k-ft, Mu,Splice = 1,055k-ft

A) Flange Splice:

In this case, it makes no difference which flange is the “controlling flange” and which one is the “non-controlling flange,” (Since the beam is non-composite and we are assuming that moment could be either positive or negative). For the Controlling flange:

⎛ 1 ⎞ ⎛ f cf Fcf = ⎜ ⎟ ⎜ + αφ f Fyf ⎝ 2 ⎠ ⎜⎝ Rh

For a flange splice with inner and outer splice plates, the flange design force at the strength limit state may be assumed divided equally to the inner and outer plates and their connections when the areas of the inner and outer plates do not differ by more than 10% (Commentary, Page 6191). AOuter = (10.5")( 3 8 ") = 3.938 in 2

AOuter − AInner AAve

=

AInner = ( 2 )( 4.00")( 7 16 ") = 3.500 in 2

( 3.938 in ) + ( 3.500 in ) 2

2

= 11.76%

Since the difference area is greater than 10%, either (1) the assumption that the flange force is evenly divided between the outer and inner plates must be modified, or (2) the inner plate thickness must be increased to 1/2”, which would result in a difference in area between the outer and inner plates of less than 2%. The second option will be selected for the case of this example. Outer Flange Splice Plate: 101/2” x 3/8”

The direct shear force. The moment on the web bolts caused by the eccentricity of Vuw The portion of the bending moment in the beam that is carried by the web. The horizontal force resulting from the relocation of the beam moment from the ENA location to the mid-height of the beam.

To determine the forces acting on the bolts using the Elastic Vector Method, tables in the AISC Manual of Steel Construction will be used for preliminary investigations. These tables are set up to account for the shear force, Vuw, but not the moment, MTotal.

Check Slip of the Bolts in the Web Splice: Take the Service II moment as 548k-ft. From the slip check on the flange splice, Fs and fs were determined to be 23.92ksi and Pslip was determined to be 168.3kip. Take the Service II shear force at the location of the splice to be Vsw = 30.4kip. The web splice is to be designed for the following actions at the Service II Limit 1. 2. 3. 4.

Vsw - The direct shear force. Mvsw - The moment on the web bolts caused by the eccentricity of Vsw Msw - The portion of the bending moment in the beam that is carried by the web. Hsw - The horizontal force resulting from the relocation of the beam moment from the ENA location to the mid-height of the beam.

1. The direct shear force acting on the web splice is given as, Vsw = 30.4kip: 2. Determine the moment, Mvsw, that is caused by the eccentricity of the direct shear, Vsw: Assuming the arrangement of bolts shown on Page 12, the distance from the CG of the bolt group on one side of the splice to the CL of the splice is, e = ( 12 ) ( 3 1 2 ") + 2 1 2 "+ ( 12 ) ( 1 2 ") = 4.50"

M vsw = e Vsw = ( 4.50") 30.4kip

The total moment acting on the web splice is, M Total = M vsw + M sw = 136.8k-in + 1, 667 k-in = 1,804k-in

The fictitious shear force, P, that when applied over the eccentricity, e, results in the same actions as the actually applied shear and moment is determined as, P=

1,804k-in = 400.8kip 4.50"

The largest bolt force in the web splice due to the Service II combination can be determined as, PBolt
