SECTION 3.4.6: LOAD CAPACITY ANALYSIS OF SOFFIT MOUNTED BRACKET WELD (FILLET WELD )
BS EN 1993-1-8:2005 EC3: Design of Steel Structures Part 1-8 Design of Joints
A. Factored Load Reference (Maximum Values)
From Section 3.4.1, STAAD OUTPUT, Reaction Summary, Print Run 6 to 7 of 7
Fx = 5.36 kN Factored Horizontal Load at X Axis
Fy = 1.45 kN Factored Verrtical Load at Y Axis
Mz = 3.94 kN-m Factored Moment at Z Axis
Reference Drawing : NR-MAP-BLK-S-LVS-D009
B. Analysis of Weld Connection
Electrode Class = 35
a = 6.00 mm Minimum Thickness of Weld
t = 4.24 mm Throat length of weld
b = 60.00 mm Width of Weld
d = 120.00 mm Depth of Weld
A = 1526.40 mm2 Effective Area of Weld
Zs = 49584.18 mm3 Effective Section Modulus at Strong Axis
3
Zw = 35164.04 mm Effective Section Modulus at Weak Axis
fu = 430.00 N/mm2 Ultimate Strength Strength of Steel
βw = 0.85 Correlation Factor,
ϒM2 = 1.25 Material Factor,
fvw,d = fu/((3)0.5*βw*ϒM2)
= 233.66 N/mm2 Design Strength

Check Weld Capacity
Ms = Mz Factored Bending Moment about Strong Axis
= 3938000.00 kN-m
Vx = Fx / A
= 82.9 N/mm2 Shear Stress along X-axis
Vy = Fy / A + M s/Z s
= 80.370 N/mm2 Shear Stress along Y-axis
Vz = Fz / A
= 2.58 N/mm2 Shear Stress along Z-axis
V = [ ( V x )2 + ( V y ) 2+ ( Vz ) 2 ]1/2
= 115.51 N/mm2 Resultant Shear Stress
Since V < fvw,d Therefore the Weld Capacity is SUFFICIENT
