Assignment 1

1. Investigate the safety of the slip-critical connection shown in Fig. Prob. 5.14. The angle
section ISA 150 × 115 × 12 mm is connected, using 30 mm diameter high-strength
friction-grip bolts, to a 10 mm thick gusset plate.
2. Determine the total number of 24 mm diameter bearing-type bolts required for the
double-bolted double-cover butt joint shown in Fig. The threads of bolts may be
assumed not to fall in the shear planes

Assignment 2
3. Determine the strength of a 6-mm fillet weld per mm length when placed (i) in shop,
(ii) at site. A 200 mm wide plate is to be jointed to another 300 mm wide plate section.
Determine the design strength of the joint if the overlap of the plates is 150 mm. Both
longitudinal and end fillet welds are provided. What will be the overlap required if only
longitudinal fillet welds are provided? The plates are 8 mm thick and connected with
minimum size of weld as per IS specification.
4. Determine the service load which can be applied to the fillet welds for the cases shown
in Fig. Consider the weld size to be 3 mm.
Assignment 3
1. For the plate shown in Fig. Prob. 7.4, find the minimum pitch p of the bolts, for which
only two bolt holes need to be subtracted at any section in calculating the net area.

2. Determine the tensile strength based on rupture of net section of the members shown in
Fig

Assignment 4
1. Design a suitable section for compression member shown in Fig.

2. A column section ISHB 150 @ 265.9 N/m. is to be spliced with another column section
ISHB 150 @ 339.4N/m. The factored load on the column is 400 kN. Design the splice.
Assignment 5
1. Determine the plastic section modulii of the following sections.
(a) ISLB 350@ 524 N/m.
(b) ISLC 200@ 206 N/m.
(c) ISLC 200@ 206 N/m, placed inverted over top flange of ISLB 350 @ 524 N/m such
that the section is symmetrical about yy-axis.
2. Design a beam of span 6.50 m to carry a uniformly distributed factored load of 20 kN/m
and two concentrated factored loads of 100 kN each at 2 m, from either ends of the
beam. The only rolled steel I-section available is ISMB 350@ 514 N/m (Fe-410 grade
steel). Design the beam section if the compression flange is supported laterally.

Assignment 6
1. Design a Pratt truss as shown in Fig. Prob. 15.1. The design wind pressure is 1200
N/m2. the trusses are covered with AC sheets and the centre-to-centre spacing of trusses
in 6 m.
