Purlin Fixing Bolt Design

The document summarizes the design of fixing bolts for a purlin. It specifies using 2 12mm diameter bolts made of grade 8.8 steel. It calculates the tensile force on the bolts as 13.71kN. It then checks that the bolt properties including diameter, shear area and tensile strength can withstand the forces based on design codes. The check shows the combined shear and tension is below the allowable limit. It also calculates the wind load on the purlin based on wind pressure and coefficients and determines the support reactions.

PURLIN FIXING BOLT DESIGN (Case 1)

2-12mm Dia. Bolts

Tensile Force = P = 13.71 KN


End Shear = V = 13.71 KN

Bolt Properties & Grade

Ultimate tensile strength of bolt, fub = 800 Mpa FOR 8.8 BOLT
Yeild strength of bolt, fyb = 640 Mpa

Diameter of bolt, d = 12 mm
Diameter of hole, d0 = 14 mm

Shank area of bolt, Asb = 113.04 mm2


Net shear area of the bolt at threads, Anb = 88.17 mm2

No. of bolts, n = 2

Shear capacity of the bolt in single shear (cl.no.10.3.3)

Vnsb =

Vnsb = 40.773 kN

Design shear capacity of the bolt in single shear, Vdsb


Vdsb =
Vdsb = 32.62 kN f2

Tensile strength of bolt (Clause 10.3.5)

Nominal tensile strength of bolt Tnb =

An = 88.17 mm2

Tnb = 0.9 x fub x An

Tnb = 63.48 kN

Design tensile strength of bolt Tdb =

Tdb = 50.79 kN

Tdb

= 82.21091 kN OK
Check for combined Shear & Tension (Clause 10.4.6)

Applied factored shear at design load = 6.85 kN


Design shear strength Vdb = 32.62 kN
Applied factored tension at design load = 6.85 kN
Design tension strength Tdb = 50.79 kN

= 0.062
OK
