Structural Wind Load Analysis

The document provides calculations for wind load on a hoarding structure based on Eurocode standards. It determines the basic wind velocity, velocity pressure, and peak wind force. It then calculates the design load combinations and performs structural checks on a 75x75mm hollow section support, including plastic shear and bending resistance, bolt tension and shear capacity, plate bearing capacity, and fillet weld resistance. All checks show the section and connections are adequate to resist the calculated design loads.

REFERENCE DESCRIPTION REMARKS

WIND LOAD CALCULATION

EN 1991-1-4 Basic wind velocity Vb = Cdir x Cseason x Vb,o


Section 4.2
Vb = 1 x 1x20 = 20m/s

EN 1991-1-4
eq. 4.10 Basic velocity pressure qb = 0.5 x air x vb2
qb = 0.5 x 1.194x 202
qb = 238.8 N/m2

Terrain factor Kr = 0.19 (Z0/0.05)0.07


Kr = 0.19 (0.05/0.05)0.07 = 0.19

EN 1991-1-4 Terrain roughness factor (cr(z)) = Kr x ln (Z/Z0)


Section 4.3.2
Terrain roughness factor (cr(z)) =0.19x ln (2/0.05) = 0.7

EN 1991-1-4 Turbulence intensity lv(z) = Kl/[Co(Z).ln (Z/Z0)]


Section 4.4
lv(z) = 1/[1 x ln (2/0.05)] = 0.27

EN 1991-1-4 Mean wind velocity Vm(Z) = Cr(Z) x C0 x Vb


Section 4.3
Vm(Z) = 0.7 x 1x 20 = 14m/s

Peak velocity pressure qp(z) = [1+7 x lv(Z)] x 0.5 x x vm2(Z)


qp(z) = [1+7 x 0.27] x 0.5 x 1.194 x 14 2
qp(z) = 0.34 kN/m2

Wind force Fw = CsCd x Cf x qp (Ze).Aref


Fw = 1x1x 1.4x 0.34 kN/m2 = 0.48 kN/m2 Fw = 0.48 kN/m2

EN 1991-1-1 HORIZONTAL LOAD ON HOARDING

DESIGN LOAD COMBINATION

Design Load 1 = 1.5X0.74 + 1.5X0.5X(0.48X2) = 1.11kN/m + 0.72kN/m


Design Load 1 = 1.11x2 + 0.72x2 = 3.66kN

Design Load 2 = 1.5X0.7x0.74 + 1.5X(0.48X2) = 0.78kN/m + 1.44kN/m


Design Load 2 = 0.78x2 + 1.44x2 = 4.44kN

There fore Design Load 2 Combination will be the critical combination

DESIGN MOMENT AND SHEAR FORCE


Max BM is
MY.Ed= LLx1.2 + WLx22/2 = (0.78x2)x1.2 + (1.44)x22/2 = 4.75kNm 4.75kNm

VEd = Fd = 4.44kN Max SF = 4.44kN

BS EN 1993-1- Plastic shear resistance Vpl,Rd= Av(fy/3 )/M0


.5

1 : 2005, 6.2.6
Av = Ah/(b+h) = 908x75/150 = 454mm 2
Vpl,Rd= 454(275/1.732)/1.0 = 72.1kN > 4.44kN
Vpl,Rd > Ved
Hence okay
