This document summarizes the design checks for bolted and welded connections according to BS EN 1993-1-8:2005. It provides the design data for material properties and loads. It then describes checks performed for bolt shear, bolt bearing, bolt tension, combined bolt shear and tension, and weld capacity. All checks confirm the connection design is sufficient and safe based on the given structural steel grade, bolt diameter, plate thickness, and loading.

CONNECTION DESIGN AS PER BS EN 1993-1-8:2005
DESIGN DATA
Structural steel grade = S275
Yeid Strength = 275 N/mm² Ultimate Tensile Strength = 360 N/mm² Modulus of elasticity of steel , E = 210000 N/mm²
Max tension = 4.71 KN Refer Attahed staad out put
Max Shear = 7.7 KN Max MZ = 0.62 KNm BOLT CHECK FOR SHEAR Design Criteria = Fv,Ed < Fv,Rd Total Design Shear Force = 7.7 KN Shear Due To moment = 0 = 0.00 KN Number Bolt provided = 2 Dia of Bolt = 16 mm Area of rod = 201.0619 mm² Design Shear per Bolt (Fv,Ed) = 3.85 KN
Design shear resistance per bolt ( Fv,Rd) =
fub = 800 N/mm² Refer Table 3.1 BS EN 1993-1-8:2005
ƳM2 = 1.25 Refer Table 2.1 BS EN 1993-1-8:2005 Fv,Rd = (0.6 x 800 x 0.75 x A )/1.25 = 57.91 KN (Fv,Ed) 3.85 KN < 57.91 KN ( Fv,Rd) HENCE BOLT SAFE SHEAR BOLT CHECK FOR BEARING Design Criteria = Fv,Ed < Fb,Rd Plate thickness (t) = 12 mm Design Bearing Resistance per bolt ( Fb,Rd) =
Design Tension Resistance per bolt ( Ft,Rd) 60.80 KN Design of Tensile force per rod ( Ft,Ed) Direct Tension = 4.71 KN Direct Tension Per bolt = 4.00 = 1.18 KN Tension Due To moment = 0.271/(0.05X1) = 5.42 KN Total Tension per rod = 6.60 KN ( Ft,Ed) = 6.60 KN ( Ft,Ed) 6.60 KN > 60.80 KN ( Ft,Rd) HENCE BOLT SAFE TENSION
Design Criteria = Fw,Ed < Fw,Rd Design weld resistance per unit length (Fw,Rd) = fvw.d x a fvw.d = 220 0 Refer clause 4.5.3.3 BS EN 1993-1-8:2005 a = 6 mm Fw,Rd = 1320 N/mm Length of the weld = 150 mm Total weld resistance (Fw,Rd) = 198 KN > 4.71 KN HENCE OK
