Column Foundation Connection

This document summarizes the design of a column foundation connection. It provides input parameters for the column size, loads, material strengths, and connection geometry. The calculations then determine the required base plate size, thickness, and number of holding down bolts to transmit the column loads into the foundation. The design is in accordance with BS 8110 design code standards. Key outputs include a 500x500x34mm base plate connected with 4 M16 bolts on a 50mm bolt center spacing.

DESIGN OF COLUMN FOUNDATION CONNECTIONS


Precast Concrete Structures Design Code: Designed By: Date:
B.S. 8110 Part 1 THE ENGINEERING COMMUNITY 28-Nov-21

Code Ref. CALCULATIONS & SCKETCHES Output

Input Data:
Columns Size:
column width, bc = 300 mm
column depth, dc = 400 mm
Column Loads:
Axial Load, N = 2000 kN
Column Moment(major axis), M = 300 kN-m
projection length, L = 100 mm
dist from plate edge to holding down
bolts, d' = 50 mm
fcu = 40 N/mm²
fy = 460 N/mm²
yeild strength of plate, r y = 275 N/mm²

Solution:
eccentricity, e = 150 mm provide tension reinf.!! i.e.: e = M/N

plate width, b = 500 mm i.e.: b = bc + 2L


plate depth, d = 600 mm i.e.: d = dc + 2L

eccentricity, e = 150 mm i.e.: e = M/N

from quadratic eqation: a = 0.5 -b = 0.917 c = 0.278

X = 0.383

X< N / 0.4fcubd = 0.417 F is negative !, set F = 0

Eq. 9.52 X = 0.5 i.e.:

Eq. 9.53 fc = 13.3 N/mm²

Eq. 9.54 thickness of base plate, t = 32 mm
